About Gejay Automotive - Car service & auto repairs in Bendigo

Driving on a hot summer day can be unpleasant, especially if your car's air conditioning isn't working properly. At Gejay Automotive, we understand the frustration of dealing with a faulty A/C system. If you've noticed warm air blowing from the vents, unusual noises, or an unpleasant smell when the A/C is on, it might be time to get your system checked. One of the most common signs of air conditioning issues is a lack of cool air. If you find that the air isn't as cold as it used to be, or if it's taking longer to cool down the car, there might be a refrigerant leak or a problem with the compressor. Strange sounds when you turn on the A/C, like grinding or squealing, can also indicate mechanical issues that need attention. Additionally, musty odors coming from the vents suggest that there may be mold or bacteria growing within the system. Modern cars are extremely complex and just like the engine a vehicle's air conditioning system has components that need to be serviced or replaced on a regular basis to ensure continued reliable and efficient operation. Is keeping your cool costing you fuel? Evaporation occurring over time or leaks may diminish refrigerant pressure meaning your air con system will begin to deteriorate and will have to work harder, increasing your fuel consumption. Therefore it is important to scrutinise the condition of the rubber seals regularly for any signs of leaks or issues which may be a sign of refrigerant loss. Having your car's air conditioning serviced annually means you assist in protecting the air-con against costly breakdowns now and in the future, keep passengers safe by helping to prevent the build-up of potentially harmful substances and a well serviced car air conditioning system actually saves you money because it results in a reduction of fuel expenditure. Gejay Automotive care about the environment and have Arctick Authorisation (AU42766) to reliably and responsibly conduct automotive air conditioning regas, repairs, servicing or inspection. Visit us at our Bendigo workshop for all your car air conditioning service and repair needs. Our friendly team is here to help you stay cool and comfortable on the road.

Drive Safer this Winter with a Vehicle Inspection Report Our Vehicle Inspection Report is free with every service at Gejay Automotive in Bendigo. Our qualified mechanics will visually check over the important safety components of your vehicle and provide you with a written report on the condition of your vehicle. We can then help you understand any safety concerns which may need to be attended so that you can drive safe this winter with Gejay Automotive and Repco Authorised Service. Safe winter driving tips You'd think that this would mean very different approaches to prepare your vehicle for the winter driving season; however the fundamentals of safe winter motoring stay the same wherever you are.  So how do you make sure your car is set for safe winter motoring?  Making it clear Don't you hate that moment when you switch on the windshield wipers on the first rainy day and realise they're worn out and basically useless! Your wipers are exposed to the full force of the Australian sun all year round and wear out. A good quality wiper blade like Trico is essential to help you see your way clear regardless of the weather. Gejay Automotive can recommend a wiper blade or assembly that is right for your car. Keep it fluid Fluids and other parts in your car can be effected by cold weather; especially coolants, oils and items such as glow plugs in diesel vehicles. It's essential to get your vehicle regularly serviced by a qualified mechanic who understands the correct parts and products to keep your car in top condition. We use high quality NGK glow plugs and Penrite oils and fluids that are designed for Australian conditions.   Could you stop in time? Vibrating, spongy or slow responding brake pedal, either with or without strange sounds or difficult handling when applying pressure to your brakes are generally warning signs that your brakes need an inspection. If your car is doing any of these you should get it checked out by a specialist such as Gejay Automotive immediately. Brake inspections form part of our Vehicle Inspection Report, so if you have concerns call us today and book in. It's dangerous to drive on worn or incorrectly inflated tyres. Now is the time to check how much tread your tyres have left. If you spot uneven tyre wear, this could indicate that your shock absorbers or some other vital part of your steering and suspension systems are due for service or replacement. Driving on incorrectly inflated tyres won't just cost you money on additional fuel; it can also impact your stopping ability. You can usually find manufacturers recommendations on a panel inside the driver side door. Gejay Automotive has a state of the art Safe T Stop machine that can accurately test for shocker and brake wear and tear and provide you with a detailed report on the state of your vehicles ability to stop in an emergency. Call us today to book in for a Safe T Stop test. Drive according to the conditions Conditions change - and your driving style should too. If visibility is poor or the weather is wet - slow down and leave a larger than normal stopping distance between yourself and the vehicle in front. Drive on the safe side and book in today for a service or Vehicle Inspection Report. Driving in wet weather can be challenging, but taking a few extra minutes to perform checks beforehand can make all the difference. Regular vehicle servicing with Gejay Automotive helps keep your car in optimal condition, giving you peace of mind. Our skilled mechanics provide comprehensive inspections and maintenance, ensuring your vehicle is prepared for any weather.  So, next time the forecast calls for rain, remember that a little preparation goes a long way in keeping you safe on the road!

Holden Car Service in Bendigo

You never want to find yourself broken down on the freeway with steam pouring from under the the bonnet of your car. Your engine gives off heat, a lot of heat, irrespective of the exterior temperature and it's the radiator along with the rest of the cooling system that protects your car, and you, from being all that heat. The coolant fluid placed in your system also prevents liquids from freezing and protects the system from rust as well. How do I know I need a radiator service? Do you notice puddles under your car? Does your temp gauge read hotter than normal? Is your car overheating? Then it is best to have your cooling system reviewed by an expert. If your vehicle is showing these symptoms come and see the team at Gejay Automotive. We can service your radiator and cooling system properly. Our fully trained expert mechanics will flush your cooling system, using a fluid designed to clear out any build up. Once the cooling system is flushed, the cleansing fluid is removed and fresh coolant is added, your car's cooling system will be running like a dream: A radiator flush might be just what your car needs to bring it back to peak performance. What are the benefits of a radiator flush? Your radiator will run more efficiently and have an increased life expectancy. Your will increase your engines efficiency and life expectancy. Overall performance and power in your vehicle will be boosted.  Your water pump is further protected as it is better lubricated. How often should I get a coolant system flush? Your car maker's log book will outline how often your cooling system should be flushed, It is commonly suggested that you have your coolant flushed every two years or 40,000 km's depending on which comes first. However, your engine type and size, regional weather, the quality of your current coolant, and the total distance driven all affect how regular you have to replace the coolant in your radiator. At Gejay Automotive, we offer a full 65 Point Vehicle Inspection Report for free as part of any minor, major or log book service on your vehicle. This includes checking the level and condition of coolant in your system and the written report will tell you if we feel a radiator flush, coolant replacement or any repairs are necessary to maintain the safety and performance of your vehicle. If I don't get a radiator flush - what happens? With time, rust and scale deposits begin to build up and the whole system eventually becomes jammed up and not so effective at cooling and protecting your car. This build up of rust and debris can damage the many parts of your cooling system including your water pump, radiator, hoses and thermostat. This in turn can significantly impact the lifespan of those parts - leading to expensive repairs or replacements in the future. Can I flush the radiator myself? While there are many websites and how to's offering advice on how to flush a radiator yourself - it's not something we would advise you to do as modern vehicles can be complex. Mistakes like incomplete flushing or changing the coolant in your vehicle without flushing can stir up even more sediment and cause blockages in your thermostat or radiator. It's best to have your systems inspected regularly by a qualified mechanic, and properly flushed before being refilled with the right type of coolant, the system purged of any air pockets, and then the whole system checked by a professional again to ensure full working order and to prevent any costly breakdowns in the future.  Radiator coolant is also toxic and needs to be handled very carefully. It smells sweet, which can be attractive for children and some pets, so proper handling and storage is very important - letting a trained technician handle this task for you means not handling or having dangerous chemicals around your house. Radiator coolant also needs to be disposed of safely to prevent it harming the environment, professional workshops can have the coolant recycled or properly disposed of in a safe manner..

Don't blame hot weather for your car overheating, your engine gives off heat, a lot of heat, and it's the radiator along with the rest of the cooling system that exists to stop your car, and you, from being damaged by all that heat...

Modern cars don't run on steam!

Your power-steering fluid, a hydraulic fluid which conducts the force in your power steering system, may well be running low or has passed it's use by date... In all power steering systems the seals, O-rings and internal power-steering mechanisms wear out through time. When they do they start to break apart and these particles taint the fluid -this means the power-steering pump has to work harder and if not fixed - eventually this will cause it to break down. Power Steering Fluid replacement means draining or flushing out your car's old power-steering fluid and then adding fresh power steering fluid. This fluid is the cheapest component of your power-steering system and replacing it when needed extends the life of other, more expensive power-steering parts like the power-steering rack and the power-steering pump. So it is a good idea to have this done on a regular basis. Do you check my power steering fluid when you service my car? Gejay Automotive perform a full 65 Point Vehicle Inspection report,upon request, with any full car service that we perform. This includes a check of the power steering fluid and a written report will be provided to you outlining any issues such as leaks or low levels of fluid or if we feel repairs may be necessary. Power steering services we perform include : Power Steering Repair Main shaft Repair Rack and Pinion System Repair Steering Wheel Repair Steering Column Repair
