We offer power steering maintenance and repair services to remove any harmful deposits and impurities that could be causing damage to your vehicle.

Suspension

Suspension

Your vehicle’s suspension system is one of the main systems affecting its safety, so it's important to maintain it. It also has a huge impact on your braking, steering and tyres.

Our emphasis is on the safety of your vehicle ensuring you and your passengers are safe.

CV Boots

CV boots

A CV boot is a rubber cover that provides protection for the CV joint which is responsible for transmitting power to the engine and transmission. If your CV boot splits, it can result in expensive damage.

If you are concerned about the condition of your CV joints and boots, one of our qualified mechanics can help.

Wheel Alignment

Wheel Alignment

Fix steering problems and uneven tyre wear.

If your car feels as though it’s pulling to one side of the road, or your steering wheel is vibrating, it could be that your wheel alignment is out. This can happen gradually from everyday driving or from incidents, like when you hit a kerb. It isn’t just annoying – it can greatly increase tyre wear.

Your Bridgestone technician can adjust the suspension and steering using the latest alignment technology. So, that your wheels are perfectly aligned to steer true and deliver the least wear. And it’s done efficiently and without blowing your budget.

You should have your wheel alignment checked every time you rotate your tyres – and, of course, when you replace them. 

Wheel balancing

Wheel Balancing

Less vibration and reduced tyre wear.

One of the easiest ways to tell when something is not right with your tyres is from behind the wheel. Most of us would have encountered steering wheel wobble or vibration when we’re driving. But what does it mean?

In most cases, vibration through the steering wheel can mean that a wheel is out of balance. Tiny, but important, weights are used to counterbalance the heaviest part of the tyre and wheel assembly. If that weight becomes loose, the wheel will wobble – and the faster you’re travelling, the more it will wobble. This will increase tyre wear and is potentially unsafe.

Your Bridgestone technician can easily fix the problem using Bridgestone’s Ultra-Ride System.

Tyre Rotation

Tyre Rotation

More even wear and longer life.

Different vehicles will wear their tyres at different rates. For example, a front-wheel drive car will wear its tyres very differently from a rear-wheel drive. Station wagons and utes – because of the lack of weight over the rear wheels – will also wear at varying rates.

One of the best ways you can look after your tyres is by rotating them regularly. Swapping the rear tyres to the front and vice-versa ensures that tyres wear evenly and last significantly longer. As a guide, tyres should be rotated every 5000 to 8000 km even if there is no sign of uneven wear.

Puncture Repair

Puncture Repair

Run flat tyres for safer driving

Modern tyres seem to be stronger and harder to puncture, but sometimes getting a puncture is inevitable. That’s why at Bridgestone we offer a convenient puncture repair service.

We also offer a Run Flat Tyre Repair Service. Normally a puncture means having to stop and replace your tyre. Not with Bridgestone's Run Flat Tyre. It's specially designed to let you travel up to 80km (80km/h or less) even after a puncture.
