22.01.2022 As we put our kids to bed with full belly’s, bathed and warm you can’t help but think of those that have lost everything. My heart goes out to the exhausted fire fighters, the people who have lost homes and all the wildlife we’ve lost. Thank you to the police, army, volunteers, and especially the fire fighters. Thank you for working so hard to try and keep our country safe.

19.01.2022 Let’s talk batteries It feels like winter is well and truly here. Does your car start first go in the morning? A weak or failing battery can cause your starter motor to work harder causing premature starter failure. Being stranded because battery failure first thing in the morning is frustrating. To avoid this why not stop in a get your battery tested. We stock all the common batteries and can source the specialised batteries for most vehicles

19.01.2022 HAPPY AUSTRALIA DAY It’s certainly been a rough start to the year for Australia but if anything we’ve shown what Australians do best and that is digging deep, helping out and supporting one another.

18.01.2022 What’s everyone up to this long weekend?? We’re watching finke re-runs keeping warm inside. Did you know both Katie and Grants mums have raced finke together! Then Katie’s mum and Sister. Grant has also raced finke in a buggy 3 times.... We have also volunteered a check point for quite a few years. You could say racing in our blood haha.

18.01.2022 HAPPY HALLOWEEN Are you TRICK or TREATING?

18.01.2022 Who wants to take the day off just to get the car serviced or repaired? Not me!! Did you know we have a DROP OFF/PICK UP service. Say what!!! Yep that’s right. We can pick your car up and drop it off once it’s done Want to know what’s even better? We won’t charge you for it! It’s free of charge!!!

18.01.2022 Ever wondered what some of your dash lights mean when they come on? Don’t worry we do! What are some of the ways you’ve explained your dash lights to your mechanic?

18.01.2022 LETS GO ON A BEAR HUNT Colour in the bear and put it in your window (you could also used a stuffed bear to) Then next time you get out the house for a drive, go on a bear hunt and count how many bears you can find. ... Remember to social distance and wash your hands!!

17.01.2022 New car? New toys!! Customer recently purchased a new car, so of course we were more than happy to install a new UHF and spot lights!!

17.01.2022 WHAT A WEEK!! We’ve been lucky enough to have some extra hands on deck this week. Jordan joined us for 3 days for work experience. He started off helping with some services and ended up disassembling an engine ready for a freshen up. ... Then we had Ace our son come in and order some parts ready for the upcoming week and start learning the business side of things. The lead up to Christmas is looking busy so please book in early to avoid missing out.

16.01.2022 COVID UPDATE 2 It appears new information has become available in the early hours. We are allowed to open but unfortunately we won’t be, we are unable to get parts which in effect means we will be unable to provide high quality workmanship that we pride ourselves on. As soon as we know an open date we will let everyone know so you can book in. #stayhome

16.01.2022 Well the week started out slow but it sure did pick up very quickly in one afternoon thanks to you awesome people. Have an awesome weekend!!!

15.01.2022 It’s been a busy few weeks lately with a variety of jobs, from servicing and tyres, to cylinder head removal and refit and lots in between. This week alone had us putting a head back on a Mitsubishi triton, clutch repairs on a Subaru Forester, tyres on a Toyota Prado and several services as per manufacture specifications. Now with the warmer weather coming now would be a good time to get your air con checked ready for summer.

15.01.2022 MERRY CHRISTMAS From Grant, Katie and family at A1 Auto Air and Mechanical! We hope you have a great day filled with good food and great company

15.01.2022 BEAT THE HEAT Even though most of us are still wearing jumpers today, now is the time to test out your car air cons. Running your car air con now will help lubricate the system as well as figure out if it is actual working! Blowing hot? Not blowing much at all? Take a while to cool down? If you answered YES to some of these questions then pop on down and Grant will put the gauges on (free of charge) to determine what is wrong and when we can book you in to fix it.

15.01.2022 After experiencing technical difficulties with our eftpos machine yesterday we’re happy to announce it’s working again!!After experiencing technical difficulties with our eftpos machine yesterday we’re happy to announce it’s working again!!

15.01.2022 COVID UPDATE Due to the current covid conditions we are not allowed to operate for the next 6 days. We will contact all customers booked in for the next 6 days ASAP. Stay safe everyone!

14.01.2022 What you see what we see Looks can be deceiving, from the outside everything looks good with tread still on the tyre but up in the air on the hoist it’s a whole different story. Servicing your vehicle isn’t just changing some filters under the bonnet. Safety inspections are also carried out on EVERY single vehicle serviced. If you think your tyres are getting low or your vehicle needs servicing give Grant a call today 0438 852 717.

14.01.2022 Well that’s a wrap. We are taking a much needed break and will be back on the 4th of January in the new year in our nice and now clean and tidy workshop. We would like to thank all our customers for your support this year and look forward to keeping you on the road next year. From us to you have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

13.01.2022 We had a vehicle come in today that needed a good check over. Customer complained the air con wasn’t blowing much. Well we found the culprit!!! This is why we like to replace cabin filters every service, so you can breathe clean air and get better air flow whilst keeping cool travelling to your destination. OLD VS NEW

12.01.2022 Happy New Year to all our wonderful customers.Thank you for helping us make 2019 amazing and to making 2020 even better. Here’s to the road behind us and the one ahead. Cheers

10.01.2022 LIGHTS ON Don’t forget when travelling in wet or foggy conditions to turn those lights on. Also a quick 2 minute job for the day is to check your lights work. If not, pop by on Monday and let Grant have a look. Enjoy your Sunday!!

10.01.2022 We have had a busy start to the year and here’s one of our bigger jobs so far. The vehicle had leaking injector seats, this was causing excessive smoke and lacking power. After further investigation we found the injector mounting point had broken off the cylinder head. We replaced the head and injectors, coded them in with our scan tool and got the vehicle back on the road.

10.01.2022 Sneaky pic of our trip to Kangaroo Island Don’t worry we’re back on deck Monday.

10.01.2022 Suspension upgrades Here’s a car we put Airbag Man airbag kit in. This will help to level the car up once they put their new caravan on, for safer towing a on their next trip. We buy direct from the best suppliers to give you, the customer, the best products.

09.01.2022 It’s been a busy start to the year with servicing, suspensions, injectors, tyres and air conditioning so far. This is the evaporator out of a customers car that we replaced last week. As you can see it’s very blocked, however it’s also had refrigerant leaking through it which you can see via the blue light and dye.

09.01.2022 GET EXCITED ITS BATHURST WEEK Must be time for a competition!! STAY TUNED FOR DETAILS!!

08.01.2022 R U OK? In the challenges we’ve faced this year now more than ever it’s the time to ask R U OK? It could literally save a life. R U OK Day is about more than one question...... It’s about checking in with someone more than once a year. It’s about being prepared when someone says no, I’m not okay. It’s about looking for the signs that someone might not be okay. It’s about checking in after that initial conversation. And it’s about checking in with yourself and making sure you’re okay too. This is an important reminder to start a conversation that could change a life today, tomorrow and any day it's needed. Let’s normalise these conversations 365 days of the year, not just 1.

07.01.2022 BUSY BUSY Been pretty busy lately with lots of variety, including Landcruiser front wheel bearings and swivel hubs. Maintenance is the best way to prevent major failure and it makes your car perform better on and off the road making for a smoother ride.

06.01.2022 HAPPY MOTHERS DAY!!! May your day be filled with no bickering or fighting, no housework, cooking or washing!! But seriously we hope you have a wonderful day!!

02.01.2022 They say variety is the spice of life and this week had plenty, including this winch fit to a Toyota Hilux. Turned out to be quite a big job however with the use of genuine parts, everything went in it’s place nicely and the end result was awesome.The customer was happy with the finished product and as was I.

02.01.2022 HAPPY 40TH BIRTHDAY GRANT Feel free to drop in and wish Grant a happy birthday and help us eat these yummy cupcakes!!

01.01.2022 TRUE OR FALSE If I buy a new car, do I have to take it back to the dealership to be serviced? FALSE As much as the salesman person will try and convince you that you do, you don’t. It is now law that it’s your right to choose.... Do I have to take it back to the dealership if I get a recall on my car? TRUE They have to do this for free. Will I lose resale value on my car if I don’t go back to the dealership? FALSE As long as your vehicle has all its logbook servicing up to date by an authorised workshop and your log book is filled in and stamped this will not be a problem. See more
