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. GN Mechanical & Automotive in Broome 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 GN Mechanical & Automotive in Broome 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 GN Mechanical & Automotive today. We can perform clutch service and repairs on most makes and models right here in our Broome workshop.

High temperatures can affect various components of a car, making it important to address these issues during regular servicing.

Discover the top 5 maintenance tips for your vehicle and essential advice for navigating large water puddles... Owning a 4WD vehicle offers the freedom to explore off-road terrains, making it ideal for adventures in and around Broome. However, to keep your vehicle performing at its best, regular maintenance and awareness of potential issues are crucial. Here, we outline the top 5 things you should monitor on your 4WD and provide tips on how to safely navigate large puddles during the wet season. Importance of Regular 4WD Service Regular service and maintenance ensure your 4WD remains reliable and safe, whether you're exploring rugged trails or navigating city streets. Keeping up with scheduled maintenance can prevent minor issues from becoming major problems, ensuring your vehicle is always ready for the next adventure. GN Mechanical & Automotive offers comprehensive car service options designed to meet the needs of 4WD owners, ensuring every aspect of your vehicle is in top condition. Top 5 Maintenance Tips for Your 4WD Vehicle So lets get to the meat and gravy of the article - the top 5 things you should monitor on your 4WD and tips on how to safely navigate large puddles during the wet season. 1. Engine Health Oil and Filter Changes: 
Regular oil changes keep your engine running smoothly. Ensure you use the correct oil type and replace the oil filter as per the manufacturer's recommendations. Air Filter: 
Offroad driving can clog your air filter with dust and debris. Regularly check and replace the air filter to maintain engine performance and fuel efficiency. 2. Suspension and Shock Absorbers Inspection and Replacement: 
Offroad conditions can take a toll on your suspension system. Regularly inspect your shock absorbers and springs for wear and damage. Replacing worn components can prevent handling issues and ensure a comfortable ride. 3. Brakes Pad and Disc Wear: 
Effective braking is essential for safe offroad driving. Regularly check the brake pads and discs for wear and replace them as needed. Ensure your brake fluid is at the correct level and in good condition. 4. Tyres Tread and Pressure: 
Proper tyre maintenance is crucial for traction and stability. Regularly check tyre tread depth and ensure all tyres, including the spare, are properly inflated. Uneven wear patterns can indicate alignment issues that need addressing. 5. Fluids and Cooling System Fluid Levels: 
Regularly check and top up all essential fluids, including coolant, brake fluid, power steering fluid, and transmission fluid. Maintaining proper fluid levels ensures all systems operate smoothly. Cooling System: 
The cooling system is vital for preventing engine overheating. Inspect the radiator and hoses for leaks and ensure the coolant is fresh and at the proper level. Navigating Large Water Puddles Safely During the wet season in Broome, large puddles and flooded roads can be a common challenge. Here's how to safely navigate through these conditions: Slow Down: 
Approaching large puddles at high speed can cause water to splash over the bonnet, potentially damaging the engine and electrical components. Reduce speed to avoid this. Steady Speed: 
Maintain a steady, slow speed while driving through water. Avoid sudden acceleration or braking, which can cause loss of control. Avoid Deep Water: 
If the water level appears too high, it’s safer to find an alternative route. Water can hide potholes and debris that can cause damage to your vehicle. Aftercare: 
After driving through water, check your brakes to ensure they are functioning properly. It’s also a good idea to inspect your vehicle for any potential water damage. By following these tips and ensuring regular service, you can enjoy the full potential of your 4WD while maintaining its longevity and performance. The other great way to be sure you enjoy your 4WD to it's full potential is to bring it in to GN Mechanical & Automotive in Broome for regular service and repairs...
