Logbook Servicing

Whenever you purchase a new vehicle, the manufacturer provides you with a warranty that covers the cost of any parts failure. This warranty is only valid, however, if you have the vehicle periodically serviced by a certified mechanic, who stamps and records these services in your vehicle’s logbook.

JMB Automotive’s skilled mechanics are fully certified to provide logbook servicing for all petrol and diesel vehicles.

Roadworthy Certificates

If you’re planning on selling or otherwise transferring ownership of a vehicle, you must first acquire a Roadworthy Certificate. The Roadworthy Certificate, issued by a licensed tester after a thorough inspection, ensures that your vehicle meets the legal standards to be driven safely on Victorian roads.

JMB Automotive is a licensed tester and we are always happy to help you obtain your Roadworthy Certificate.

Brake Services

Your brakes are the most important safety system that your vehicle has. While other safety systems, such as airbags, mitigate the severity of an accident, your brakes can also act preventatively, and the condition of your brakes is often the deciding factor between an accident and an emergency stop.

Here at JMB Automotive, our expert technicians can help you with:

• Brake component replacement
• Brake component machining
• Brake hose repairs
• Brake restorations

Steering and Suspension

If you are having issues with your handling and ride comfort, you may have issues with your steering and suspension, respectively. Your suspension is also responsible for maximising the grip that your tyres exert on the road surface, so a poor suspension will also increase your stopping distance.

JMB Automotive’s skilled mechanics can help you with:

• Shock absorbers, springs and struts
• Bushing replacement
• Power steering repairs and replacement

Exhaust

Without the exhaust to carry waste gases out of the engine, performance, fuel efficiency and emissions are all negatively impacted.

If you are having issues with your exhaust, our team can help you with all exhaust repairs, replacements, modifications and upgrades.

Clutch and Transmission

The clutch and transmission are some of the most complex pieces of machinery in your vehicle. Due to their sophisticated nature, even minor flaws can quickly escalate into extremely costly repairs.

Here at JMB Automotive, our talented technicians can help you with:

• Servicing
• Repairs and replacement
• Manual transmissions
• Automatic transmissions
• Differentials
• CV Joints

Engine Repairs

While regular servicing greatly reduces the chances of a serious problem, there are still problems which pop up from time to time, and if you leave your engine issues for extended periods of time, it will probably render your vehicle immobile. As the heart of the vehicle, your engine’s health is crucial.

JMB Automotive’s proficient mechanics can provide the following engine services:

• Engine rebuilds
• Engine testing
• Engine blocks
• Cylinder heads
• Camshafts
• EFI Diagnostics

Cooling Systems

If your cooling system is malfunctioning, it can cause a host of issues from reduced fuel efficiency and engine performance to decreased engine lifespan as leaking coolant and overheating damages the engine. If these problems are ignored for long enough, they will eventually render your vehicle immobile, with the cost of repairs being comparable to that of buying a secondhand vehicle.

Here at JMB Automotive, our competent technicians can help you with:

• Radiator/heater unit repairs and replacement
• Head gasket replacement
• Coolant flush and leak check
• Thermostat check and replacement

Auto Electrical

If the engine is the heart of your vehicle, the auto electrical system is the brain. As modern vehicles have increased in complexity, more and more functionality is being governed by the auto electrical network, from playing music and monitoring fuel consumption, to assisting with braking and gear changes.

Our skilled auto electricians can help you with:

• Alternator test and replacement
• Battery check and replacement
• Component test and replacement
• Diagnostic scans
• Lighting upgrades
