Exciting News – Auto Care Ocean Grove Named Awards Finalist!

Do you drive an Automatic vehicle? Then you might not even know there is a clutch in your vehicle. But without it, the gears in your car will not change. Auto Care Ocean Grove in Ocean Grove know all about repairing and servicing these systems including clutches, cables and fluids. Learn more below. What is a clutch? The clutch is one of the most important elements of your vehicles driving operation. Your engine is what causes your wheels to spin, but what happens when your car needs to stop? The engine shouldn't stop spinning but the wheels need to. It's the clutch that allows this to happen. The clutch allows the transfer of power from the engine to the wheels to be interrupted while a gear is being changed or while the car is stationary and the engine continues to run. What is clutch fluid? Some vehicles have hydraulic clutches - when you press the clutch pedal, the clutch fluid moves the pressure from the pedal through to the clutch and disengages the power transmission. Leaking clutch fluid can cause all kinds of problem in your vehicle so it is very important to monitor it regularly. At Auto Care Ocean Grove in Ocean Grove we check your clutch fluid, hydraulic system or clutch cables for you in the course of our free 65 Point Vehicle Inspection - which you can request as part of every car service.
 What signs to look for if your clutch is not performing You should have your clutch looked at if: You notice a burnt ‘toast' or ‘burning rubber' smell in your car, or smoke from under vehicle Your vehicle is slipping out of gear for no reason There is jerky or sticky gear operation Your clutch is not disengaging fully, or your clutch is sticking or shuddering If your clutch is showing any of the problems above - it could mean any number of faults. Clutch problems are difficult to diagnose by symptoms alone because many issues cause the same symptoms, depending on the vehicle and type of engine. The best way to deal with clutch shuddering, slipping or noise is contact us at Auto Care Ocean Grove today. We can perform clutch service and repairs on most makes and models right here in our Ocean Grove workshop.

The clutch is one of the most important elements of your vehicles driving operation.

Advanced EV, Hybrid & Petrol Vehicle Servicing in Ocean Grove

You don’t need a dealership to take care of your hybrid—just the right knowledge, tools, and a team you can trust. Hybrid vehicles are becoming more popular every year—and it’s easy to see why. They’re quiet, fuel-efficient, and environmentally friendly, offering a smooth driving experience for city streets and coastal cruising alike. But when it comes to servicing, hybrids aren’t like regular petrol cars. And not every workshop is equipped to look after them properly.
At Auto Care Ocean Grove, we are. Why Hybrid Servicing Is Different Hybrid vehicles combine a traditional petrol engine with one or more electric motors and a high-voltage battery. These systems work together to reduce fuel consumption, lower emissions, and often recharge themselves as you drive.
But this also means your hybrid has: Two drivetrains working in sync Advanced cooling systems Regenerative braking technology Electronic control modules and software integration Each of these requires specialised knowledge and the right diagnostic tools to service safely and effectively. We’ve Got the Tools and the Training At Auto Care Ocean Grove, we’ve invested in the latest hybrid servicing technology, and our technicians stay up to date with training on hybrid vehicle systems and safety procedures.
We’re equipped to handle: High-voltage battery safety checks System diagnostics for electric motor and petrol engine integration Regenerative braking inspection and service Hybrid cooling system maintenance Cabin filters and air conditioning system checks Whether you drive a Toyota Prius, RAV4 Hybrid, Hyundai Ioniq, or a plug-in hybrid, you can trust that your car is in the hands of experienced professionals. No, You Don’t Have to Go to the Dealer A common myth is that you need to return to the dealership to service your hybrid or protect your warranty. That’s no longer the case.
As a Repco Authorised Service centre, we follow your manufacturer’s servicing schedule, use quality parts, and stamp your logbook—so your statutory warranty stays valid. We’re Not Just Hybrid Experts—We’re Your Local Workshop Ocean Grove drivers have trusted us with their vehicles for years, and we’ve evolved to keep pace with the latest automotive technologies.
