​

Who will you deal with at APC?

​

Craig brings a wealth of experience across auto servicing, mechanical repair and performance upgrades. Keralee is the friendly face at the front desk and the brains behind the administrative side, drawing on a business management qualification and years of office experience. Their long serving crew each bring something to the business, whether they are changing oil or installing a whole new engine and driveline.

​

What servicing is available in Ormeau?

​

Logbook servicing is carried out for all makes and models without voiding a new car warranty, alongside everyday servicing and mechanical repairs. 4WD servicing and driveline fluids are also handled, which suits owners running larger vehicles alongside their everyday car.

​

Can APC issue a safety certificate?

​

Safety certificates and full vehicle inspections are carried out for all makes and models, from family sedans and classic cars through to light commercials and performance vehicles. Pre purchase inspections are available for anyone buying secondhand, along with pre trip inspections for camping trips and long road trips.

​

What brake, steering and suspension work do they carry out?

​

Brakes are repaired, serviced, replaced and upgraded, which matters since brake condition is often the deciding factor between an accident and an emergency stop. Suspension work covers shock absorbers along with steering and suspension bushes and ball joints, and the team can also lower a vehicle or install aftermarket shocks, struts, springs and adjustable bushes for wheel alignment requirements.

​

What clutch, transmission and cooling work is available?

​

Their transmission work covers automatic and manual fluid changes, clutch replacement, CV joints and driveshafts, flywheel machining and replacement, and fluid upgrades. Cooling system services include radiator replacement, coolant flushes and thermostat checks and replacement.

​

What auto electrical and diagnostic services do they offer?

​

Their technicians have deep knowledge of vehicle computer and electronic systems, from engine management through to stability control. Diagnostic work covers alternators and starter motors, battery checks and replacement, component testing, diagnostic scans, and ABS and stability control systems.

​

How do they support fleet operators?

​

APC understands that every minute a fleet vehicle is off the road costs money, so they work with businesses to create servicing schedules that keep vehicles earning. Comprehensive fleet servicing is tailored to each business, and they are an approved merchant for a number of large fleet companies.
