Installing new parts such as shocks, struts, or ball joints if degradation is detected, to restore optimal function.
Alignment Check and Adjustment:
Measuring and correcting wheel angles (camber, caster, toe) to ensure straight tracking and even tyre wear.
Steering System Assessment:
Examining the steering rack, power steering pump, fluid levels, hoses, and belts for leaks, fluid contamination, or mechanical faults.
Suspension Lubrication:
Applying lubricants to pivot points and joints to reduce friction and prevent premature wear.
Test Drive Verification:
Conducting a road test to confirm smooth handling, absence of noises or vibrations, and proper steering response. This service generally requires 1 to 4 hours, depending on the complexity of inspections and repairs needed.
