COVID-19

First up its important to know that at this point in time its business as usual at Bertlex Motors, however, as the Corona virus is still in its infancy, like everyone else, we do not know how this will affect us being able to provide our vehicle servicing, repairs and roadworthy inspections moving forward. As a group, we are doing everything we can to do our part to ensure our workplace and personnel are geared to minimize transmission wherever possible. As such, we have committed to do the following:

• We are cleaning steering wheels, handles and gear shifters on customers vehicles and loan cars with disinfectant wipes both before and after works
• Have provided our staff with hand cleaning agents and spoken about correct Hand and Respiratory hygiene practices
• We are proactive in making sure our staff are aware of COVID-19 symptoms and have a strict policy on staying home if feeling unwell

We will continue to monitor the situation and announcements from government agencies and heath organisations and will act accordingly.

This is what happens when you don't change your engine oil. This car has a loud metallic ticking noise coming from the engine. A few hundred dollar service can save you thousands replacing worn or broken parts. Left filter is brand new. Right one is atleast 20 to 30 thousand kms over due. All the broken down oil has blocked the filter and restricting oil flow to the engine.

Is your car due for a service? Give the team at bertlex motors a call

It's been 2 years since we posted this but it is just as important. Fuel filters are very important and will save you thousands of dollars in the long run.

Summer is coming around again. The air con is going to get a good work out. Some of the most over looked things is the cabin air filter. It helps reduce pollen and dust coming into the cabin through the heater/air con vents. Its amazing how much they actually catch! Pop in and have a chat or give us a call and we can assist you to replace your cabin filter.

Last week we had another v6 commodore come in for a check engine light. Gave us the diagnostic trouble codes for the timing chain possibly stretched. With 305,000 kms its quite a high possibility. Once pulling the engine covers off we could see oil was everywhere! Also leading us to beleive the PCV was possibly blocked! Adding to the issue of the timing chain issue. Upon pulling apart the motor our thoughts were right. Chains were slack and the PCV was definitely blocked! After a few hours of cleaning the outside of the engine and inside of the rockercovers and replacing the timing chains, guides and tensioners. We also decided it was a good idea to remove and clean the sump and oil pickup. The pick up looked clean but had alot of gunk and broken guide peices in there. Restricting oil flow which can lead to sever engine damage. The gunk built up inside the engine is caused by lack of oil changes, this car was 10,000kms over due for a service. The gunk then blocks up all the little oil passages and the PCV.
Oil changes are crucial part to the longevity of a cars engine. You are much better to have it changed more regularly than stretch it out to the kms recommend on the service sticker or owners log book.

A customers 2007 Honda Civic Type R ,that is in for a clutch replacement. During the process of this we found the slave cylinder was on its way out and becoming faulty and also a fault within the gearbox itself. One of the main bearings for the main shaft had collapsed and also the gear for 3rd gear had separated from the main shaft as a result.
2 issues that could have been worse if they had of been missed.

Need a clutch or gearbox repair on your car? Give us a call at Bertlex Motors.

Had a customer in earlier this week who had just come back from a trip across the country! Changing the air and cabin filters, they do a good job stopping all that dirt and dust going into the engine and cabin but also block up! Its a good thing to have but needs to be checked and/or replaced regularly to work efficiently.

Few cars we have had in this year. The commodore needed all rear end bushes. Rear subframe and rear control arms. The patrol had its front swivel hubs rebuilt and a e-locker fitted at the same time.
