Summer in Melbourne doesn't mess around. The heat hits hard, the roads get sticky, and traffic jams always seem longer when the sun is blazing. Nothing ruins the day fast than hopping into your Range Rover only to find the air conditioning can't keep up.
That's why Auto Tech Group recommends a pre-summer air conditioning check. A quick visit now could save you from sweaty drives, fogged up windscreens, or worse, and expensive breakdown right when you need your car the most.
Why Bother With an A/C Check?
Your air conditioning isn't just about comfort. It's also about:
Clean air - filters keep out dust, pollen and pollutants
Safety - a working A/C system clears your windscreen fast in humid weather
Health - regular servicing helps stop mould and bacteria from building up
Savings - small fixes now mean you avoid big repair bills later
At Auto Tech, we also understand the importance of maintaining clean air filters to minimise bacteria and ensure fresh air circulation. And it's not just about cooling. Our technicians can address loose brackets, refrigerant leaks that can damage other car components, or persistent fogged windows during bad weather. If your system does break down, our dedicated team will get you back on the road quickly and comfortably.
Licensed Experts You Can Trust
We're not just dabbling, here. Auto Tech Group is fully licensed (Authorisation Number: AU 08968) to handle every part of your air conditioning system. Our technicians are qualified by Artick, which means your system is serviced properly and safely.
Strange smell? Weak airflow? No cold air at all? We've seen it all, and we know how to get your AC back to top form.
Our Meticulous Process
When you bring your car to one of Auto Tech Group's locations, your air conditioning service includes a thorough inspection and test. Our meticulous process covers:
Checking valves and thermostat functionality
Inspiring fluid levels, components, and hoses
Testing for leaks
Verifying temperature output
Topping refrigerant oil
Replacing filters as needed
Each step is designed to ensure your air conditioning system efficiently and reliably, giving you comfort and peace of mind on every journey.
Don't Wait for a Heatwave
Every year, drivers wait until the first scorcher to find out their AC isn't working. By then, workshops are packed, and repairs can take longer as a result. Be smarter! Book early and enjoy peace of mind knowing your BMW, Mercedes, Range Rover, Volvo or Landcruiser will be ready when the mercury spikes.
