General Repairs

We can undertake any repairs to any Make or Model of car, 4x4, Ute, light truck, caravan or trailer. Whether your breakdown is a simple light bulb right up to a major engine overhaul we are competent to repair it for you.

At Gleniti Auto we believe that customer communication is of paramount importance as we never want there to be a bill which you didn’t expect. We will always ask for your contact phone number where you can be reached during the day, so in the event of an unexpected problem arising, we can speak to you and confirm that you want us to go ahead before we undertake any extra work that may be required.
When estimating for a job, we prefer to price it up properly rather than having a guess at the cost, again so there are no surprises at the end of the job.

Cabin heating systems. These can sometimes start leaking coolant fluid onto the carpets of your car. Depending on the make and model this can be a serious problem as the whole dashboard has to be removed to get the heating element out. Please ask us for an estimate.

Clutch repairs. We can repair these for you if the clutch starts to slip. We will always have the flywheel resurfaced and replace the pressure plate at the same time to ensure a good job that will last a long time. If shortcuts like not resurfacing  the flywheel are taken the Clutch manufacturer will not honour the warranty.

CV joints and boots. CV joints generally last very well on modern cars providing the CV rubber boot does not break and allow the grease out and dirt in. We have a special tool that allows us to stretch a boot over the CV joint, which saves time and the damage which can sometimes occur if a CV shaft doesn’t want to come apart.

Engine Overhauls. If your car has blown a cylinder head gasket or cracked the cylinder head, it is worth repairing that engine.
