European and Luxury Car Service in Churchill

When it comes to keeping your vehicle running smoothly, the cooling system plays a pivotal role that cannot be overlooked. But what exactly is a cooling system, and why is it so essential for your car's performance and longevity? 

The cooling system in your vehicle is responsible for regulating the engine's temperature, preventing it from overheating. It works by circulating a mixture of water and coolant through the engine block and radiator. This process absorbs the heat generated by the engine and dissipates it through the radiator. Without a properly functioning cooling system, your engine could quickly overheat, leading to significant damage and costly repairs.

What is a Cooling System and How Does it Work?

Regular maintenance of your vehicle's cooling system is essential, and this is where professional mechanics come into play. At New Churchill Motors, we understand the importance of routine checks and inspections. Our experienced technicians are trained to spot potential issues before they become serious problems. By entrusting your cooling system to professionals, you ensure that your vehicle remains reliable and efficient.

Knowing the warning signs of a failing cooling system can save you time and money. Here are some indicators that your vehicle’s cooling system may not be functioning correctly:

Overheating Engine: If your engine frequently overheats, it’s a clear sign something isn’t right.

Coolant Leaks: Puddles of coolant under your vehicle can indicate a leak in the system.

Low Coolant Levels: Regularly needing to top up your coolant could signal a leak or other issue.

Steam or Vapor: Seeing steam coming from under the hood is an immediate warning that your engine is overheating.

Strange Noises: Unusual sounds, such as a boiling or hissing noise, could mean there's a problem with the coolant circulation.

New Churchill Motors car service in Churchill, provide all EFI servicing, repair and maintenance.

New Churchill Motors diagnose EFI systems thoroughly, from electrical connections and static output pressure to voltage supply and fuel delivery measurements.

New Churchill Motors is your best car service outlet in Churchill, Vic, for all your Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) servicing and repairs. To perform a thorough inspection and analysis.

During a typical EFI service our mechanics will inspect your vehicle and identify if your car is affected by common vehicle problems, including:

Untreated buildups and problems can increase over time and require costly car service and potentially preventable engine repairs, if you contact New Churchill Motors for timely car inspection.

What is an electronic fuel injection system?

In an internal combustion engine, an EFI is the system for mixing fuel and air. For the last few decades, EFI has gradually replaced caburetors to become the most typical system used for fuel delivery in fuel based engines.

In an EFI, a fuel pump pushes the fuel coming from a tank into different injectors creating sufficient pressure for the injectors to deliver accurate amount of fuel. Pump pressure and fuel volume flowing through must meet vehicle manufacturer standards. Failing to meet requirements, the engine performance and economy could be reduced, at the same increasing fuel consumption and emissions.

When inspecting and servicing EFI systems, electric fuel pumps are the primary concern area. Regular wear and tear under normal operating conditions will cause fuel pumps to fail over time. If rust or other type of dirt settle on inlets past filters or contaminate the pump, the repairs will be needed much sooner. This is why it is crucial to inspect your car at scheduled intervals and keep regular contact with New Churchill Motors.

Throttle Body Injection and Port Injection are the two major types of fuel injection are used in modern gasoline engines. Both operate by the same principles, yet look very different.

Port Injection System sends fuel directly into individual cylinders. Various sensors are located throughout the engine compartment to detect airflow, vacuum, temperature and exhaust.

Throttle Body Systems have two injectors inside an aluminium housing, mounted to the intake manifold. Nearly all required sensors are located in the same aluminium housing.

The major differences between both systems is price and performance. The far superior port injection systems are also considerably more expensive as the individual sensors must be manufactured separately so that each component can be mounted independently. With each cylinder receiving fuel individually, the computer can control fuel consumption and power much more efficiently. Throttle body systems are cheaper to manufacture, however offer lower performance.

Electronic fuel injection system components

The key to an efficient electronic fuel injection system is the computer. All electronic fuel injection systems utilise a computer to receive information from sensors and, based on information received, send necessary voltage to fuel injectors. Various manufacturers have different names for the electronic fuel injection computer:

Differential bushings could be the issue if they are aged, worn or cracked.  They control movement in the joints, absorb road bumps and reduce vibrations and noise while driving or reversing. These are one of many automotive issue we can handle at New Churchill Motors, your trusted local mechanic in Churchill.

It is fair to say that the Ford Territory and Falcon are two of the most popular vehicles on Australian roads. Both of these models are prone to high rates of wear in some rear suspension components, such as the rear differential bushing. This is particularly apparent on vehicles that have travelled high kilometres, have high horsepower or vehicles towing loads regularly.

A tell-tale sign that this bushing is no longer performing as intended is hearing a clunking noise or feeling a jolt under acceleration or when shifting gears from drive to reverse. The primary function of the rear differential bushing is to provide a smooth and quiet transfer of power from the engine to the rear wheels of your vehicle under acceleration.

Should this issue go unresolved it may result in excessive wear on surrounding drive train and suspension components so it is wise and economical to act swiftly should you be experiencing any of these symptoms.

Your local Repco Authorised Service Centre New Churchill Motors in Churchill is experienced in diagnosing and fixing this problem. We can replace your worn rubber differential bushing with a highly durable Nolathane differential bushing specifically designed and manufactured to address this problem and return your vehicle back to its optimum performance.

So, if “clunking” goes with your Territory or Falcon, contact the team at New Churchill Motors today.

At New Churchill Motors in  Churchill we believe the transmission is an important part of your vehicle.

Without the transmission, your vehicle would not be able to move between gears. The transmission fluid allows you to do this smoothly and also protects the working parts inside your transmission. The transmission fluid doesn't diminish through use. Yet the level should still be checked periodically because if there is a leak, or the fluid level is low, it will harm the internal parts of your transmission.

Transmission fluid can become dirty over time with metal shavings and other particles which will shorten the life of your transmission. Replacing a transmission is a costly exercise and so checking the fluid and replacing it when necessary is a good investment in the long run.

At New Churchill Motors we provide a full 65 Point Vehicle Condition Report upon request with every full car service - This includes a check of your transmission fluid and we will advise you if we think your fluid needs to be replaced or if a transmission service might be needed.
