Brake fluid plays a crucial role in the safety of your vehicle by transferring the pressure you apply to the brake pedal to the actual brakes. Without it, your brakes simply wouldn’t function, and as everyone knows, a car without brakes is incredibly dangerous. Even slightly compromised brakes can pose a serious risk.

Brake fluid has a tendency to absorb moisture over time, which can compromise its effectiveness. Brake systems generate high temperatures, and brake fluid is specifically designed to have a high boiling point to prevent it from evaporating. However, when too much moisture builds up, the boiling point is lowered, making the fluid more prone to boiling under heat. This can lead to reduced brake fluid levels, ultimately affecting your vehicle’s braking performance and increasing stopping distances.

Why Is Brake Fluid Replacement Necessary?

In addition to reducing effectiveness, moisture-contaminated brake fluid can lead to corrosion within the braking system. Over time, this can damage components such as the callipers, wheel cylinders, and anti-lock braking systems (ABS). Regular replacement helps to extend the lifespan of these parts and maintain optimal braking performance.

Brake fluid is hygroscopic, meaning it actively absorbs moisture from the surrounding environment, even through microscopic openings in the brake system. This is why regular maintenance is essential to ensure safety.

Your vehicle’s manufacturer will specify how often the brake fluid should be replaced—typically outlined in the logbook service schedule. At Exmouth Service Centre and Towing, we recommend replacing it every two years as a general guideline. However, it’s equally important to have it checked during each routine service. A professional mechanic can assess the moisture content in the fluid and check for any leaks or other signs of wear that might require earlier attention.

How Often Should Brake Fluid Be Replaced?

Yes, at Exmouth Service Centre and Towing, we provide a comprehensive 65-point vehicle inspection upon request with every full service. This includes a detailed review of your brake fluid, master cylinder, front and rear discs and pads, callipers, cylinders, and more. Our expert mechanics will assess the condition of your braking system and notify you if the brake fluid needs replacing or if any additional brake system repairs or maintenance are required. Regular checks can catch problems early, ensuring your safety on the road.

Maintaining your brake fluid is an essential part of car ownership, and neglecting it could lead to costly repairs or, worse, compromised safety. If you’re due for a brake fluid replacement or simply want peace of mind, book a service with Exmouth Service Centre and Towing in Exmouth. Our team will make sure your braking system is in top condition, so you can drive with confidence.

Brake Fluid: What It Is and Why It Matters

Brake Fluid: What Is It and Why Do You Need It?

Do you drive an Automatic vehicle? Then you might not even be aware that there is a clutch in your vehicle. Without it, the gears in your car will not change.

Exmouth Service Centre and Towing in Exmouth know all about repairing and servicing these systems including clutches, cables and fluids. Learn more below.

The clutch is one of the most important elements of your vehicles driving operation. Your engine is what causes your wheels to spin, but what happens when your car needs to stop? The engine shouldn't stop spinning but the wheels need to. It's the clutch that allows this to happen. The clutch allows the transfer of power from the engine to the wheels to be interrupted while a gear is being changed or while the car is stationary and the engine continues to run.

Some vehicles have hydraulic clutches - when you press the clutch pedal, the clutch fluid moves the pressure from the pedal through to the clutch and disengages the power transmission. Leaking clutch fluid can cause all kinds of problem in your vehicle so it is very important to monitor it regularly. At Exmouth Service Centre and Towing in Exmouth we check your clutch fluid, hydraulic system or clutch cables for you in the course of our free 65 Point Vehicle Inspection - which you can request as part of every car service.


You should have your clutch inspected if:

What signs to look for if your clutch is not performing

You notice a burnt ‘toast' or ‘burning rubber' smell in your car, or smoke from under vehicle

Your vehicle is slipping out of gear for no reason

Your clutch is not disengaging fully, or your clutch is sticking or shuddering

If your clutch is showing any of the problems above - it could mean any number of faults. Clutch problems are difficult to diagnose by symptoms alone because many issues cause the same symptoms, depending on the vehicle and type of engine. The best way to deal with clutch shuddering, slipping or noise is contact your local mechanics at Exmouth Service Centre and Towing today.

We can perform clutch diagnostics, service and repairs on most makes and models right here in our Exmouth workshop.

The clutch is one of the most important elements of your vehicles driving operation.

Grinding Gears? - It could be your Clutch Fluid

As temperatures drop and wet weather becomes more frequent, winter driving in Exmouth can present serious challenges. Reduced visibility, slippery roads, and sudden weather changes mean your car must be in peak condition—especially the tyres and brakes. At Exmouth Service Centre and Towing, we understand how important it is to keep you safe on the road during the colder months.

Essential Winter Car Prep in Exmouth: Focus on Tyres & Brakes

Whether you’re commuting, heading off on a road trip, or simply running errands around town, your car’s performance in winter is critical. Cold weather can reduce battery efficiency, fog up your windscreen, and make road surfaces unpredictable. But the most vital components to inspect before winter truly sets in? Tyres and brakes.

Your tyres are the only part of your vehicle that touch the road—so in winter, their role becomes even more crucial. Cold, wet conditions demand reliable grip and responsive handling.

Tyres: Your First Line of Defence on Wet Roads

Tread Depth: In slippery conditions, you need deep tread to channel water away and maintain grip. Anything under 3mm should be replaced—even if it’s legally above the minimum.

Tyre Pressure: Cold air lowers tyre pressure, which can cause uneven wear and poor fuel efficiency. Regularly check and adjust to your vehicle's specifications.

Tyre Condition: Look for cracking, bulges, or flat spots that can form in fluctuating temperatures.

Tyre Type: If you're often on wet or unsealed roads, consider all-season or winter-rated tyres for added safety.

A professional inspection at Exmouth Service Centre and Towing ensures your tyres are up to the task before winter really takes hold.

Slippery roads and limited visibility demand faster reflexes—and brakes that respond instantly. Worn brakes, delayed stopping, or squealing noises should never be ignored, especially in winter.

Brakes: Reliable Stopping Power is Non-Negotiable

Squeaking or Grinding: These sounds often signal worn pads or rotors.

Longer Stopping Distance: If you feel your vehicle taking longer to stop, book a brake check immediately.

Vibrations or Pulling: A shaky or pulling steering wheel during braking could mean uneven wear or fluid issues.

Brake Warning Light: Always a red flag—get it checked without delay.

The experienced team at Exmouth Service Centre and Towing can assess your entire braking system, including pads, rotors, fluid, and hydraulic components, to keep you in control.

While tyres and brakes are the stars of the show, there are a few other winter-ready essentials we recommend checking:

A full winter service at Exmouth Service Centre and Towing can help identify these issues early, saving you time, stress, and potential breakdowns when the weather turns.

Don’t let cold, wet weather catch you off guard. Stay safe this winter by making sure your tyres and brakes are in top condition. Our expert mechanics in Exmouth are here to ensure your vehicle is ready to handle anything the season throws your way.

Diesel engines have become a popular choice among vehicle owners for their efficiency, durability, and superior fuel economy compared to petrol engines.

In Exmouth, Exmouth Service Centre and Towing is the go-to service provider for diesel engine maintenance and repairs, offering expert care and personalised service. But why is regular diesel service so vital? 

Come on a journey of discovery with Exmouth Service Centre and Towing as we delve into the key reasons behind why keeping up with your diesel vehicle’s regular maintenance schedule is essential.﻿

1. Increased Longevity and Reliability﻿
One of the primary reasons diesel engines are favored is their longevity. Diesel engines are built to last, often outliving their petrol counterparts by a significant margin. However, this durability doesn't negate the need for regular maintenance. Consistent servicing ensures that the engine’s components remain in optimal condition, helping to prevent premature wear and tear. By having your vehicle serviced at Exmouth Service Centre and Towing, you can ensure that your diesel engine remains reliable and performs well over the long haul.﻿

2. Better Fuel Efficiency﻿
Diesel engines are known for their impressive fuel efficiency, a crucial factor for many drivers. Regular maintenance, including timely oil changes and fuel system cleaning, helps maintain this efficiency. Over time, deposits can build up in the fuel injectors and combustion chambers, reducing fuel efficiency. Professional services, such as those offered by Exmouth Service Centre and Towing in Exmouth, include thorough cleaning and inspection routines to keep your engine running smoothly and efficiently.﻿

3. Provides Environmental Benefits﻿
While diesel engines are often praised for their fuel economy, they also need to be maintained to ensure they run cleanly. Poorly maintained diesel engines can emit higher levels of harmful pollutants. Regular servicing helps to keep emissions in check by ensuring that components such as the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system and diesel particulate filter (DPF) are functioning correctly. Keeping these systems clean and operational not only benefits the environment but also ensures compliance with emission standards.﻿

4. More Cost-Effective in the Long Run﻿
Routine maintenance may seem like an added expense, but it can save you significant amounts of money in the long term. Neglecting regular service can lead to major engine problems, which are often costly to repair. Simple maintenance tasks, such as checking and replacing the oil, air, and fuel filters, can prevent more serious issues from developing. The expert mechanics at Exmouth Service Centre and Towing understand the intricacies of diesel engines and can spot potential problems before they escalate, saving you from costly repairs.﻿

5. Helps Ensure Optimal Performance﻿
A well-maintained diesel engine runs smoother and performs better. Regular servicing ensures that all engine components are in top working order, contributing to overall vehicle performance. Services like EGR and carbon cleaning, which are offered by Exmouth Service Centre and Towing in Exmouth, can significantly enhance engine responsiveness and power. This means not only a more enjoyable driving experience but also the assurance that your vehicle can handle demanding tasks, whether you're towing a trailer or navigating challenging terrain

6. Safety First - Always A Must﻿
Safety is paramount when it comes to vehicle maintenance. Diesel engines, like all engines, can develop issues that may compromise the safety of the vehicle. Regular inspections by qualified technicians can identify and rectify potential safety hazards, such as fuel system leaks or exhaust system problems. By entrusting your vehicle to the experienced team at Exmouth Service Centre and Towing, you can drive with confidence knowing that your diesel engine is safe and reliable.

Regular diesel engine service is crucial for maintaining the performance, efficiency, and longevity of your vehicle. From ensuring fuel efficiency and reliability to enhancing safety and reducing environmental impact, the benefits of consistent maintenance are undeniable.

Why Regular Diesel Service is Crucial for Your Vehicle

Whether you're dealing with rain, cooler temperatures, or planning a trip to colder regions, ensuring your car is in top-notch condition is paramount. This guide will illuminate the importance of regular vehicle servicing and how it primes your car for winter driving.

Winter in Exmouth might not be as severe as in other parts of the world, but that doesn't mean your vehicle can afford to skip its regular service

Regular servicing acts as a preventive measure, keeping potential problems at bay while ensuring your vehicle performs efficiently. Think of it as a health check-up for your car, where issues can be diagnosed before they escalate into costly repairs.

Understanding the Essence of Regular Servicing

Winter can be challenging for vehicles. Cooler temperatures affect battery performance, and increased rainfall can impact visibility and your tyres grip on the road, increasing stopping distances. Regular servicing ensures that your vehicle is prepared to face these challenges, keeping you and your loved ones safe on the road.

Safety First: Brakes and Tyres:
A critical component of winter driving safety is the condition of your brakes and tyres. Servicing involves thorough checks and maintenance of your braking system to ensure it responds effectively when needed. Tyre tread depth and pressure are also scrutinized to maintain optimal traction on slippery roads.

Visibility Matters: Lights and Windscreen:
With shorter days and less daylight in winter, ensuring your car's lights are fully functional is crucial for visibility. Servicing includes checking all lights and replacing bulbs if necessary. Windscreen wipers and the condition of your windscreen are also inspected to guarantee clear visibility during rain or hail.

Battery Life in the Cold:
Cold weather can take a toll on your car's battery. Regular servicing tests battery health, ensuring it has the necessary charge to start your car in colder temperatures.

Fluid Levels and Quality:
Winter can affect fluid viscosity. Regular service checks include oil, coolant, and brake fluid levels and quality, replacing or topping up as necessary to ensure your car runs smoothly.

Air Conditioning and Heating:
You might wonder why air conditioning is important in winter. In addition to keeping you comfortable, it's crucial for defogging windows to maintain visibility. Servicing ensures your car's air conditioning and heating systems are functioning correctly.

If you're planning a winter road trip, regular servicing is even more critical. It ensures your vehicle is capable of enduring longer distances and the added strain of carrying more passengers or luggage. Regular servicing provides peace of mind, knowing your vehicle is in optimal condition to face winter's challenges. It minimizes the risk of breakdowns and ensures reliability, so you can focus on enjoying the drive and reaching your destination safely.

Ultimately, regular servicing is about embracing winter with confidence. It's about knowing that no matter the road conditions or weather challenges, your car is prepared to take you where you need to go, safely and comfortably. Regular servicing at Exmouth Service Centre and Towing in Exmouth isn't just about maintenance; it's about enhancing your vehicle's performance, safety, and reliability for winter driving.
