Services – experienced mechanic – Browns Plains

Looking for a top quality mechanic in Browns Plains? As an award winning business in SE Queensland, the team at Steve Sorensen Mechanical provides an exceptional standard of work at very affordable prices. We offer a wide range of services to our customers, including vehicle servicing, diagnostics, repairs and pre-purchase inspections.

All the following services are performed by an experienced mechanic at our Browns Plains auto shop. That includes servicing, repairs, inspections, testing, diagnostics and safety certificates.

Logbook Servicing

All logbook servicing is performed to the manufacturer’s specifications using parts and lubricants that meet or exceed OEM standards. This means that we are fully able to perform all your logbook servicing without compromising your warranty and you avoid paying hefty dealership prices. Even if your service deal includes capped prices from your dealership, it’s worth asking us for a free quote. That’s because with our fixed price quotes, our everyday prices are often better.

Maintenance servicing

It’s good to know that when your vehicle needs servicing that an experienced mechanic in Browns Plains is on the job. Whether your vehicle is due for a scheduled maintenance service or it’s long overdue for a service, we can perform a minor, major or combination service so that your vehicle is always safe on the road. All servicing includes a full safety test, road test and comprehensive report.

Automatic transmission servicing

When your transmission fails it can be an extremely expensive fix, which makes automatic transmission servicing an essential part of maintaining your vehicle in good order. At Steve Sorensen Mechanical, we perform all standard auto transmission servicing, as well as servicing CVT and DCT transmissions. To make sure that we give you the best possible auto transmission servicing, we use a dedicated automatic fluid transfer machine for all standard auto transmission servicing, as this ensures that 100% of the gearbox fluid is replaced.

Brake and clutch repairs

At Steve Sorensen Mechanical, we provide a first class brake & clutch service to our customers using premium parts, including Bendix brake pads and Exedy clutches. Our mechanic in Browns Plains will inspect and service your brake & clutch, preventing an unexpected costly repair job in the future. When brake pads wear down too far they can damage the rotors and the drums with them, requiring a much bigger repair job. When the clutch starts sticking, slipping or vibrating, it can be another expensive problem.

Timing belt replacement

If the timing belt breaks then your engine not only stops but can result in catastrophic engine damage. That’s why manufacturers recommend that timing belts are replaced at specific intervals. At Steve Sorensen Mechanical we use a full timing belt replacement kit that includes the belt, bearings and tensioner, all sourced from OEM suppliers to ensure that your timing belt is of the highest quality.

Cooling system services

To keep your cooling system in good working order, it should be inspected at least once a year by a qualified mechanic in Browns Plains. A leaking radiator system can become a big problem very quickly resulting in extensive engine damage and costly repairs. An inspection is simple and fast and will save you a lot of angst in the future. We include this inspection with all services and can make any repairs that are necessary, from hose clamps to water pumps, radiators and even the entire cooling system.

Steering and suspension repairs

It’s always worth having your steering and suspension inspected at regular intervals by our mechanic in Browns Plains, because these problems are often misunderstood. For example, unevenly worn tyres or an increased fuel consumption can be trivial, but can also be caused by issues with the steering or suspension. We always inspect the steering and suspension with every scheduled service and we can also perform all the repairs you need to keep your steering and suspension safe and in good working order.

Electronic vehicle diagnostics

At Steve Sorensen Mechanical our highly qualified team of mechanics are fully qualified in electronic vehicle diagnostics. Whether you have an annoying indicator on your dash that just won’t go away or a complex problem that’s difficult to diagnose, our knowledgeable mechanics in Browns Plains can work their way through the fault to identify the root cause of the problem. We have all the necessary diagnostic equipment to make short work of finding the source of the fault and fixing the problem.

Pre-purchase inspections

If you’re ready to buy a second hand car, it makes sense to ensure that it’s worth the money. That’s why we offer a pre-purchase inspection so you know the exact condition of the vehicle before handing over your money. We inspect everything that we can see and access without dismantling any of the vehicle’s components, looking for obvious faults, as well as anything that’s been hidden or not revealed. We highlight evidence of previous problems or repairs and look for any issues that might occur in the near future. With our comprehensive pre-inspection report, you can make an informed buying decision.

Safety certificates

All vehicles require a current safety certificate before being sold in Queensland. A safety certificate is valid for 2 months or 2000km. At Steve Sorensen Mechanical, we perform safety certificate inspections and issue safety certificates in electronic form so that you can quickly transfer ownership online when your vehicle is sold.

Battery testing and replacement

Not being able to start your car because of a dead battery is one of the most frustrating problems with vehicles. That’s why we have computerised equipment that can let us know the state of your battery and whether it’s time for a replacement, before it loses its charge and causes you grief. We have a wide range of premium AC Delco batteries in stock so are usually able to replace your battery quickly. Don’t forget that when you change the battery in newer model cars, you also have to update the computer, so it’s no longer a quick DIY job.
