At R & G Vaccari Mechanical Repairs in Wetherill Park, we specialise in testing, supplying, and fitting high-quality car batteries to ensure your vehicle runs efficiently. Our experienced technicians are equipped to handle all your battery needs, ensuring you are never left stranded with a dead battery. Symptoms of a Failing Battery Understanding the signs of a failing battery can save you from unexpected breakdowns. Here are three common symptoms: Slow Engine Crank: When starting your car, if the engine cranks slowly and takes longer than usual to start, it could indicate a weakening battery. Dim Lights and Electrical Issues: If your car's headlights and interior lights appear dimmer than usual, or if you notice electrical components malfunctioning, it could be due to a failing battery. Frequent Jump-Starts: Needing to jump-start your car frequently is a clear sign that your battery is not holding a charge and may need replacement. Comprehensive Battery Testing At R & G Vaccari Mechanical Repairs, we include free battery testing with every car service. Our thorough testing process ensures that your battery is in optimal condition, and we provide detailed test results in every service report. This allows you to stay informed about the health of your battery and plan for any necessary replacements before it becomes a critical issue. The Impact of Cold Weather on Batteries Cold weather can significantly affect the performance of your car battery. Low temperatures reduce the battery’s ability to hold a charge and can increase the strain on the starter motor and other components. During winter months, it is especially important to ensure your battery is in good condition to avoid any starting issues. Regular Testing and Maintenance For batteries older than three years, we recommend testing at least twice a year. This proactive approach helps in identifying potential problems early and ensures that your vehicle remains reliable. Regular testing and maintenance extend the lifespan of your battery and improve overall vehicle performance.

Your cars safety and roadworthiness is dependent on your vehicle's ‘stopping, steering and stability' capabilities. The suspension and shock absorbers are not just there to give you a smooth ride, they are integral for the correct operation of these three critical capabilities, therefore keeping you, your passengers and other road users safe. Regular servicing and maintenance can help to prevent problems, but if you notice anything amiss, contact us ASAP to get it checked out. When to get a service An important part of keeping all aspects of your vehicle working properly is to stick to your regular Log Book servicing schedule. However, if you notice any of the following symptoms you should get your vehicle checked out as soon as possible; Steering Wheel Vibration or pulsing Nose diving and swerving - bonnet dips when braking or slowing down Car veers in side winds Car rocks and rolls over bumps and doesn't hug bends when cornering Uneven tyre wear Makes a rattling noise Clunking over bumps Bouncing, dipping and diving Our suspension and shock absorber services include inspection, diagnosis, repairs and replacements so we'll have your car fixed and back on the road time. Don't delay, book today. Why work with us? Top Quality: As a part of the Repco Authorised Service Centre network all of the work we perform is backed by the Repco Nationwide Warranty. The Right Parts: Our mechanics are kept up on all the latest parts thanks to Repco service bulletins. Additionally, we have access to the Repco spare parts network which means we can find you the right part at the right price. The Best Team: Our mechanics are well versed in many different makes and models. From a fleet of vehicles to the family car, we are here for you. Some of your suspension & shock absorber's important parts include Springs - Springs are designed to absorb energy and there are several different types including leaf, coil, torsion bar or air assisted springs. The springs on different types of cars will be set up to different levels. Luxury cars, for example, may have soft springs to produce a smoother ride but this results in more body movement when the car brakes and corners. Sports cars, on the other hand, tend to have tighter springs which allow for more aggressive driving, including around corners, but also mean a less smooth ride. Shock absorbers - these dissipate the energy absorbed by the springs. The car would not work properly without the shock absorbers because the springs would cause it to bounce up and down when you go over a bump rather than absorb that bump. Strut - this is a shock absorber mounted inside a coil spring. Struts do the job of the springs and shock absorbers plus provide additional structural support for the suspension system. Anti-sway bar - spans the width of the axle and joins the two sides of the suspension together to provide stability to the car while it is moving.

R & G Vaccari Mechanical Repairs are ready to carry out all your Car Air Conditioning Regas, Repairs, Inspection or Servicing needs in Wetherill Park and the surrounding areas. (AU53055) Todays vehicles are very complex and just like the engine you need to get a regular service on your air conditioning system to ensure continued reliable and efficient operation. Faulty Air Con could be costing you fuel? Refrigerant can leak or evaporate over time meaning your air con system will begin to deteriorate and will have to work harder, increasing the amount of fuel you use. Therefore it is important that the rubber seals are inspected regularly for any signs of leaks or deterioration which could indicate a continuing loss of refrigerant. By getting a yearly Car Air Conditioning service you often help protect the system 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 automotive air conditioner system actually saves you money because it means less fuel is being used. R & G Vaccari Mechanical Repairs care about the environment and have Arctick Authorisation (AU53055) to reliably and responsibly conduct vehicle air conditioning regas, repairs, inspection or servicing. Book your car air conditioning service with the professionals at R & G Vaccari Mechanical Repairs today! Need more information about Car Air Conditioning Service? How do air conditioners work? A car air conditioner system is composed of four essential parts : A belt-driven pump known as a compressor to compress and circulate gas. A radiator like unit called a condenser to redistribute heat and condense gas to a liquid. An expansion device, which could be a thermal expansion valve (TXV) or an orifice tube (subject to the kind of air-con system used). Some systems have an accumulator before the compressor to remove moisture from the refrigerant while TXV systems have a receiver-dryer before the evaporator performs the same crucial task. Both of these parts also store refrigerant. Car air conditioning is designed to pull the heat from the air within the car's interior area and transfer it outside, leaving only cooled or 'conditioned' air to be redistributed. Hot air is passed across a gas-filled evaporator, where the heat is easily absorbed by the refrigerant (in gas form), effectively removing the heat from the air in the car. The now heated gas is pulled through the compressor where it is further heated (via compression). The next stage involves the refrigerant being forced through the condenser to extract the refrigerant's heat quickly. The refrigerant, now condensed to a liquid, then moves through the expansion device (either a TXV or Orifice tube), which regulates the refrigerant's flow to the evaporator, changing the high-pressure liquid to a low-pressure mist (gas). A fan blowing over the evaporator's cold fins produces the cold air being blown into the car, and the entire process then begins all over again. Does the car air conditioner use more fuel? Yes! Your car air conditioning is using fuel. However, it's actually more fuel efficient to run car air conditioning than it is to have your windows down due to aerodynamic drag. If your air conditioning isn't performing its best, it may use more fuel to run. To avoid this, it's important that you have your air conditioning serviced regularly by professionals, like the ones at R & G Vaccari Mechanical Repairs.  What's the cause of the bad smell in car air conditioning? The damp environment can promote microbes, bacteria and even fungus growth inside the evaporator core. This can lead to nasty smells and possibly even be bad for the health of any vehicle occupants. Although modern evaporator units tend to be more efficient, they have more fins, meaning an increased capability to trap moisture and allow for micro-organism development. How do I know my car air conditioning is due for a service? If you cannot remember when your air conditioning was last serviced, perhaps it's time to book in with the team at R & G Vaccari Mechanical Repairs. You should also book in if: Your air conditioning system is blowing warm air There are damp patches or water stains under your dashboard Your car air conditioning system smells funny Your car air conditioning system is making strange noises There is weak air flow from the car air conditioning system Why does the car air conditioner need to be serviced? Car air conditioning is designed to pull the heat from the air within the interior area of the car outside, leaving only cooled or 'conditioned' air to be redistributed. This is achieved using a special compound called refrigerant, capable of readily absorbing heat as a gas and quickly losing heat as a liquid. The compressor needs the right amount of oil in the refrigerant to prevent it from seizing up. Should the air filters be jammed with dirt and bacteria, it will affect the entire system's performance, and it can even cause it to stop working altogether. On top of inhibiting air conditioner efficiency, dirty air filters can cause health problems. Being exposed to the elements and very diverse operating conditions and being used intermittently rather than being 'Always On' can cause decay of the hoses, connections and seals. A vehicle air conditioning system should be examined regularly to ensure there are no problems or refrigerant loss due to failure or leakage from these points. Simply by cooling the air in your car under normal running conditions, the air filters get dirty and intermittent use can cause seals to dry and crack, allowing them to leak. Even without leaks, the gas in a car air conditioning system will eventually begin to degrade or evaporate over time. It should be recharged as required to keep the air con system in peak running condition. How often should a car air conditioner be serviced? Your automotive air conditioning system needs to be examined once a year for any signs of problems with the seals, hoses and connections and confirm there is no refrigerant reduction over time. Regularly servicing your automotive air conditioner system keeps refrigerant at optimum levels meaning the system does not need to work as hard. This, in turn, protects the system from damage and minimises fuel expenditure. Can I service my own car air conditioner? Only qualified mechanics with the appropriate training, like the ones at R & G Vaccari Mechanical Repairs, should attempt to service a car air conditioner. Specific licences are required to service or repair some types of car air conditioning systems, especially where re-gas (recharging of the refrigerant) is concerned. Strict guidelines and procedures must be adhered to when handling certain refrigerants, which must always be fully recovered and not allowed to escape into the atmosphere during servicing. Refrigerant can also pose serious health risks if mishandled. Specialist equipment is also required as the air conditioning system is under extreme pressure and must be pulled into a deep vacuum to remove any moisture, to avoid seriously damaging the system. You can find out more about licensing on the Australian Refrigeration Council (ARC) Website.
