Your vehicle's differential bushings might be the culprit if they’re old, worn, or cracked. These essential components help control movement in the joints, absorb bumps on the road, and reduce vibrations and noise whether you’re driving forward or reversing. At Mobile Maintenance Service, your trusted local mechanic in Severnlea, we’re well-equipped to handle this and many other automotive issues.  

The Ford Territory and Falcon are undoubtedly two of the most popular vehicles seen on Australian roads. However, both models are known to experience significant wear in certain rear suspension components, particularly the rear differential bushing. This is most common in vehicles that have covered high mileage, possess high horsepower, or are regularly used for towing.

If you’ve noticed a clunking noise or felt a jolt when accelerating or shifting between drive and reverse, it may indicate that your differential bushing is no longer functioning as it should. The rear differential bushing is designed to ensure a smooth and quiet transfer of power from the engine to the rear wheels, making it a vital part of your vehicle’s performance.  

Ignoring this issue can lead to additional wear and tear on other drivetrain and suspension components, potentially resulting in more costly repairs. Acting promptly when symptoms arise is both practical and cost-effective.

At Mobile Maintenance Service, your local Repco Authorised Service centre in Severnlea, our skilled team has extensive experience diagnosing and resolving this problem. We can replace your worn rubber differential bushing with a durable Nolathane alternative, which is specifically engineered to address these concerns and restore your vehicle to peak performance.  

Did you know? Upgraded differential bushings, like Nolathane, not only improve durability but can also enhance handling and stability during cornering or heavy towing—offering additional benefits for your vehicle.

If clunking has become a regular part of your Territory or Falcon experience, don’t wait—get in touch with the team at Mobile Maintenance Service today.

Smooth Out Clunking in Your Territory or Falcon

At Mobile Maintenance Service in Severnlea, we understand how crucial the transmission is to your vehicle’s performance.  

Your transmission enables your car to shift smoothly between gears, and transmission fluid plays a vital role in making this possible. Not only does it ensure seamless gear changes, but it also protects the internal components of your transmission. While transmission fluid doesn’t naturally decrease with use, it’s still important to check its level regularly. 

Over time, transmission fluid can become contaminated with metal particles and debris, which can reduce the lifespan of your transmission. Replacing a transmission is a costly repair, so maintaining clean, adequate transmission fluid is a smart way to protect your vehicle and avoid unnecessary expenses in the long term. 

Additionally, it’s worth noting that transmissions can suffer from overheating if fluid levels are too low, as the fluid also helps regulate temperature within the system.

At Mobile Maintenance Service, we offer a comprehensive 65 Point Vehicle Condition Report with every full car service upon request. This includes inspecting your transmission fluid, and we’ll let you know if it needs replacing or if your vehicle could benefit from a transmission service.

Ensure smooth gear changes with Mobile Maintenance Service. We check and maintain transmission fluid as part of our services to keep your vehicle performing at its best. Book a service today!

When it comes to ensuring your vehicle's optimal performance, suspension service and repairs are crucial. In the suburb of Severnlea, the experts at Mobile Maintenance Service are ready to help you keep your car in prime condition.

The suspension system is essential for a smooth and comfortable driving experience. It supports the vehicle's weight, absorbs shocks from the road, and ensures proper tyre contact with the surface. However, like any mechanical system, it can wear down over time. Regular checks and maintenance are key to avoiding potential issues.

When our mechanics inspect your vehicle, they focus on several key components:

Shock Absorbers and Struts: These are critical for dampening the impact of road irregularities. Worn-out shocks can lead to a bumpy ride and affect handling. If they are leaking or showing signs of wear, replacement is often necessary.

Springs: Responsible for supporting the vehicle’s weight and absorbing large bumps, springs can weaken or break over time. A damaged spring may cause the car to sag or ride unevenly.

Control Arms and Bushings: Control arms connect the vehicle's wheels to the chassis, allowing for controlled motion. Bushings, made of rubber, reduce friction and absorb some of the vibrations. Worn bushings can cause clunking noises and uneven tyre wear.

Ball Joints: These spherical bearings allow the suspension to move and are crucial for steering. Excessive play in ball joints can lead to poor handling and should be addressed immediately.

Anti-roll Bars: Also known as stabiliser bars, these components reduce body roll during cornering. Faulty anti-roll bars can lead to less stable handling.

Uneven Tyre Wear: This can indicate problems with alignment or suspension components.

Excessive Bouncing: If your car continues to bounce after hitting a bump, it could be a sign that the shocks or struts need attention.

Drifting or Pulling: This may occur when cornering if the suspension system isn't functioning properly.

Noisy Ride: Clunking or knocking noises can signal issues with control arms, bushings, or other parts.

At Mobile Maintenance Service, our skilled mechanics are well-versed in diagnosing and repairing all aspects of your suspension system. We provide a comprehensive service that includes thorough inspections, expert advice, and high-quality repairs. Our commitment to customer satisfaction and vehicle safety is what sets us apart.

Your local Severnlea car service centre, Mobile Maintenance Service take great pride in providing a high level of customer service and quality workmanship.

In 1996, after gaining experience by working in the automotive industry since age 14, after school, on weekends and holidays, Vito Grasso started his own car service as the head mechanic of Mobile Maintenance Service in Severnlea. From his humble beginnings, he set up as a mobile car service, Mobile Maintenance Service performed auto repairs and maintenance on site, in the convenience of client homes or at customers business locations - including various vegetable farms in Severnlea and surrounding suburbs like Stanthorpe, Applethorpe, The Summit, Glen Aplin, Ballandean, Broadwater and nearby regions.

With a big tool box mounted on the back, the Mobile Maintenance Service vehicle soon gained local motorist trust. As the word spread of Vito's mechanical knowledge and repair and maintenance expertise, the demand for car servicing grew, leading to a need for a permanent workshop, and in 2003 Mobile Maintenance Service established a well equipped car service centre in spacious premises in Severnlea.
