🚗 Hearing a 'clunk' from the rear when you shift into gear or accelerate? If you're driving a Ford Falcon or Territory, there's a good chance your differential bushes have seen better days.

Worn diff bushes don't just cause annoying noises—they can lead to extra vibration and stress on your drivetrain. We see this often and have the specialized tools to get them replaced and get your ride back to feeling solid and smooth.

Check out the difference a fresh set of bushes makes! 🔧✅

🔧 Milky oil or oil in your coolant expansion tank? That's a classic sign of an oil cooler failure!

When an internal oil cooler fails, high-pressure oil mixes directly into your cooling system—or coolant contaminates your engine oil. Left untreated, it can cause severe overheating and costly engine damage.

Here’s how we tackle it at Lara Automotive:
✅ Pressure testing & diagnosing the leak source
✅ Replacing the faulty oil cooler and fresh seals
✅ Thoroughly flushing the cooling & lubrication systems
✅ Fresh oil and coolant replacement

Noticing unusual fluids under the hood? Bring your car by the shop in Lara or give us a call at 52110836 to book a diagnostic check! 🚗💪

🚗 Don't wait for a breakdown! A worn timing belt can fail without warning, causing major engine damage that costs thousands to fix.

Here are 3 signs your timing belt might need attention:
1️⃣ Your vehicle has hit the manufacturer's recommended kilometer mark
2️⃣ You hear a ticking noise coming from the engine
3️⃣ The engine misfires or feels rough while idling

If it's been a while since your last logbook service, bring your car into Lara Automotive and Servicing. Give us a call at 52110836 to book your check-up today! 🔧✅
