Our Services

DRIVE TRAIN

The drive train of a motor vehicle is comprised of the components responsible for transmitting power to the driving wheels, while excluding the power-generating engine or motor. The power train encompasses both the engine or motor and the drivetrain. The specific type of drive train employed depends on the vehicle’s specifications, with options including 4-wheel drive, front wheel drive, or rear wheel drive.

DIAGNOSTICS

Our diagnostic test relies on a state-of-the-art computer system that seamlessly links to your vehicle’s computer processor, sensors, and microchips. By logging any problems or issues present, we can quickly and accurately identify any existing flaws, including concerns with the exhaust, transmission, oil tank, and other critical systems. Rest assured that our skilled technicians use sophisticated computers to connect with your vehicle and identify specific fault codes, allowing for a precise diagnosis of any issues. At Auto Care and Diagnostics Edenvale, we have the required diagnostic equipment to efficiently diagnose and resolve issues with your vehicle, ensuring a swift and effective repair process.

BRAKES

Your vehicle’s braking system is absolutely crucial to your safety on the road, as it has the ability to prevent accidents and protect not only yourself, but also your passengers. The system comprises both disc brakes, which can be found on all four wheels, and drum brakes, which use brake shoes and wheel cylinders and are typically only found on some rear wheels. These two types of brakes each play an important role in ensuring that your vehicle can come to a stop when needed, whether you’re cruising down the highway or navigating your way through a busy city. The importance of having a properly functioning braking system simply cannot be overstated, as it is an essential component of any vehicle designed for safe and reliable transportation.

FRONT STEERING & SUSPENSION

A suspension system enhances vehicle ride and handling and comprises shocks/struts, ball joints, tie rod ends, rack and pinion steering system, and idler/pitman arms. Shocks/struts absorb bumps and vibrations, ball joints connect the steering knuckle to control arms, tie rod ends connect the steering rack to the knuckle, rack and pinion steering system converts wheel motion to linear motion, and idler/pitman arms control steering and linkage movement. Proper maintenance ensures a smooth driving experience.

REAR SUSPENSION

The rear suspension is a vital component in any vehicle, impacting ride quality and handling. Composed of elements like shocks, coils, ball joints, control arms, and CV joints, each plays a unique role and requires maintenance for optimal performance. Without regular care, it can affect handling and create unsafe conditions. Shocks and coils absorb impacts, while ball joints and control arms provide stability and control. CV joints maintain traction in various weather. Regular inspection and service by a technician is necessary for long-lasting performance.

ENGINE OVERHAUL

As your vehicle ages and endures daily use, an engine overhaul may become necessary. This process involves removing and refurbishing the engine, replacing any worn or damaged parts.

Don’t wait for wear and tear to show – take action now.

Frequently Asked Questions

Confused about cars? Wondering why your engine is making strange noises? Don’t fret, dear customer! At Auto Care and Diagnostics (ACD), we’ve heard it all. Here are a handful of questions we get asked on the regular. Bring on the auto-related inquiries!

MY CAR SEEMS FINE, WHY SHOULD I SERVICE IT?

When you service your car regularly, it helps to keep it running smoothly, reliably, safely and efficiently. In addition, while carrying out a service, we also inspect all your vehicle’s major components to check for urgent or upcoming recommended repairs. In this way, you avoid breakdowns, which are not only inconvenient but could also be unsafe.

HOW OFTEN SHOULD I HAVE MY CAR SERVICED?

Your car has a recommended service schedule from its manufacturer. As it ages, it may need servicing or repair more often. A good rule of thumb is to service it every 12 months or 20 000 km, whichever comes first.

MY CAR’S WARRANTY OR SERVICE PLAN HAS EXPIRED. DO I STILL NEED TO SERVICE MY CAR AT THE DEALERSHIP?

When your warranty or service plan has expired, it usually means one of two things: either your car is now a few years old, or you’ve accumulated high mileage. This is usually the time your car starts showing signs of wear and tear. To a dealership, you are like a lamb walking into a lion’s den! They see this as their opportunity to start charging high prices for services and repairs now that your car has come off warranty / service plan / motorplan.

When you service your car with Auto Care and Diagnostics (ACD), we guarantee affordable pricing – without compromising on our quality and professionalism.

SYMPTOMS OF A DAMAGED SUSPENSION

Oily and greasy shock absorbers
Car nosedives forward unusually whenever you apply the brakes
Diminished driving comfort
One side of the car sits lower than the other three
Difficulty in maintaining handling stability on a straight road
Lower acceleration rate
Reduced cornering precision, etc

WHY DOES MY ENGINE MISFIRE?

Possible causes of engine misfire include:

- A damaged fuel injector
- Sticking valves
- Faulty spark plugs
- Worn coil packs
- Defective injector circuit
- Bad catalytic converter
- Low fuel pressure
- Leaking head gasket
- Faulty oxygen sensor
- Defective mass airflow sensor
- Faulty throttle position sensor

ALWAYS CHECK YOUR OIL.

The oil in your engine plays a vital role. It lubricates the moving parts of the engine so they don’t become damaged and overheat due to friction. If your engine doesn’t have enough oil, the engine will eventually become damaged. To avoid getting into a situation where you don’t have enough oil in the engine, be sure to check your oil on a regular basis. In addition, if the oil pressure warning light comes on in your instrument cluster, don’t ignore it. In fact, you should shut the engine off as soon as it’s safe to do so when the oil pressure warning light comes on. This can make the difference between an engine that can be fixed and one that’s damaged beyond repair.
