General Repairs & Car Diagnostics in Oakleigh

Advanced electronic diagnostics

Modern vehicles are computers on wheels, with dozens of interconnected control units (ECUs) managing everything from engine management and transmission shifting to braking and cabin electronics. When a check engine light, ABS warning or driveability issue appears, a basic code reader is rarely enough.

As a certified Bosch Car Service centre, our workshop is equipped with state-of-the-art Bosch diagnostic technology. We don’t just clear fault codes: our technicians analyse live data, sensor outputs and electrical waveforms to pinpoint the root cause of mechanical or electrical failures accurately.

Comprehensive mechanical & electrical repairs

From minor component replacements to major mechanical overhauls, our qualified technicians deliver dealership-level repair standards across every system:

• Engine management diagnostics: Troubleshooting check engine lights, rough idling, misfires, hesitation and stalling.
• Electrical system repairs: Diagnosing wiring faults, battery drain, blown fuses, faulty relays, central locking and power window failures.
• Exhaust & emissions control: Diagnosing and replacing oxygen sensors, catalytic converters, diesel particulate filter (DPF) systems and EGR valves.
• Major mechanical repairs: Cylinder head gasket replacements, oil leak rectification, timing belt/chain kits and cooling system overhauls.
• Sensor & actuator replacements: Testing and replacing faulty MAF sensors, crankshaft/camshaft position sensors and electronic throttle bodies.
