For all your Automotive Air Conditioner Regas, Inspection, Repair or Servicing needs in Smithfield,  Cairns, Cairns and the surrounding areas, Smithfield Car Diagnostics (AU06380) are the right choice to bring your car air con back to peak performance.

Smithfield Car Diagnostics are fully trained and authorised to undertake all aspects of car air conditioner service. We WILL NOT simply "Regas" any vehicle, partly due to the fact that this is not an effective method of maintaining your AC system and its components, potentially avoiding expensive repairs down the road. Mainly we will refuse to "just add gas" because in most cases it is actually against the law.

You should never allow an unqualified or inexperienced person to service your car air conditioner. Smithfield Car Diagnostics has specialist equipment that also tests the gas for any contaminants and over time we have come across several vehicles which have previously been re-gassed with LPG. That is just so wrong on so many levels.

We will completely remove all of the old gas, test for leaks and refill the gas in accordance with the correct procedure, including using the correct gas for your HVAC system.

Todays vehicles are very complex and just like the engine a car air conditioner has elements that need to be serviced or replaced on a regular basis to ensure continued reliable and efficient operation.

RAS Auto Facts - Air Conditioning

Loss of refrigerant from evaporation or leakage means your air con system will begin to deteriorate and will have to work harder, with a resulting increase in fuel consumed.

Therefore it is important to undertake a regular check of the condition of the rubber seals for any signs of leaks or issues which could indicate a loss of refrigerant. We will completely remove all of the old gas, test for leaks and refill the gas in accordance with the correct procedure.

Having your car's air conditioning serviced every 12 months means you can assist prevention of 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 lowers your fuel consumption.

Smithfield Car Diagnostics care about the environment and have Arctick Authorisation (AU06380) to reliably and responsibly conduct car air conditioner regas, inspection, repair or servicing.

Pre-Purchase Vehicle Inspection Reports in Smithfield,  Cairns, QLD

Pre-Purchase & Comprehensive Vehicle Inspections

Maintaining the wheel alignment on your car is an integral aspect of its overall maintenance and upkeep. However, this very important step is often ignored or skipped until the first symptoms of poor wheel alignment show up, in the form of ruined tyres. Here are some common signs to look out for:

Uneven or accelerated wear on the edges of your tyres. Usually caused by a toe out or toe in condition.

The steering has a "mushy" feel or has become less responsive. While poor steering can be caused by wheel alignment it may also be linked to a more serious problem requiring professional diagnosis.

If your cars steering wheel is not returning to the dead ahead position or pulls to one side.

When should you book in a Wheel Alignment?

Naturally, the best time to get a wheel alignment done is when symptoms of poor alignment are noticed. But Smithfield Car Diagnostics suggest that there are also other “best” times to do this, which will save you time & money, such as:

When you rotate the tyres - this allows us to properly inspect the tyres for signs of uneven wear patterns that may have gone unnoticed as the wheels are on the car.

When you replace one or more tyres - this ensures that the new tyres are not damaged by any variations in wheel alignment settings that you may not have noticed before.

When you replace standard steel rims with lightweight alloy rims - even if the alloy rims have the same width and offset as the original wheels, a critical factor when alignment angles are determined during the design phase of all cars is the weight of the wheels.

Whenever you have maintenance or repair work done on the steering or suspension systems - since many of these procedures mean that at least some dismantling of the suspension system is required, which in turn can upset or disturb alignment settings when reassembled.

When you perform any modification to the vehicle that changes its ride height or weight distribution, since these factors are critical to maintain proper (and correct) wheel alignment settings.

You can request to have a Wheel Alignment check done during your regular car service or while you are having repairs undertaken in our Smithfield, QLD workshop. If we find that your Alignment Settings are not optimal, we can rectify this for you on the same day. This will increase the life of your tyres saving you money in the long run.
