We're your local Pearcedale workshop at 490 North Road - a short trip from anywhere in town.
If your air con just needs a regas, that's what we do. If there's a leak, we'll tell you before wasting gas.
We service both older R134a and newer R1234yf refrigerant systems - the right gas for your vehicle.
Three generations of mechanics since 1957. We're not a chain - you'll work with people who genuinely care.
Full regas - evacuate the old refrigerant, vacuum-test the system for leaks, and recharge to the correct weight with the right refrigerant for your vehicle. Also lubricates the compressor.
System check without a full regas - tests pressures, compressor operation, vent temperature and looks for obvious leaks. The right call if you want to know what's wrong first.
Best choice if your air con failed suddenly or was recently regassed
Our Pearcedale workshop is proud to service vehicles from across the local area including:

We're at 490 North Road, Pearcedale. Just call ahead or book online and drop your car in whenever suits you.
Most systems lose enough refrigerant to justify a regas every 2-3 years. If yours is cooling well, you don't need to regas on schedule - but if performance is dropping, don't wait.
If your air con has always been fine and is just less cold, a regas is usually the right call. If it has failed suddenly, is noisy, or has been recharged recently and lost cooling again, book a System Check first - there's likely a leak or component issue.
Yes - we service both the older R134a and the newer R1234yf refrigerant systems. Newer cars (roughly post-2017) usually run R1234yf; we'll confirm which one your vehicle uses before service.
Servicing Pearcedale drivers with honesty and quality workmanship. Get ahead of the heat - book a regas or system check.

"Very thorough and fair, Howard has picked things up that would have cost a lot more later if missed! Great service and he explains everything. We moved interstate and the new mechanic commented on how well the car had been looked after. 10/10"
