About Noosa Radiators & Car Air Conditioning

…. especially before a Holiday Road Trip!

At Noosa Radiators & Car Air Conditioning, we recognise the vital role of maintaining your vehicle, particularly safety elements such as brakes. Whether you're navigating the roads of Noosaville or embarking on a lengthy journey, ensuring your brakes are in top condition is essential. This article delves into the reasons for regular brake maintenance and how to keep them in peak condition.

Safety Comes First: Brakes are the most crucial safety feature in your vehicle, enabling you to manage speed and halt swiftly when needed, thus preventing accidents and safeguarding you and your passengers. Regular upkeep ensures they function properly and dependably.

Improved Performance: Well-maintained brakes enhance your vehicle's overall performance. With brakes in excellent condition, your car reacts more efficiently, providing a smoother and more controlled driving experience. This is particularly crucial during emergencies that require rapid stopping.

Cost Efficiency: Regular brake upkeep can lead to cost savings in the long term. By detecting and resolving issues early, you can avoid more significant, costly repairs later. For instance, replacing brake pads before they are entirely worn can avert damage to other brake system components.

Extended Lifespan of Brake Components: Routine checks prolong the life of brake parts. Regular inspections and replacement of brake pads, rotors, and fluid keep the braking system in top form, reducing premature wear.

It's vital to notice signs that indicate your brakes may require servicing. Common symptoms include:

Recognising When Your Brakes Need Attention

Squeaking or Grinding Sounds: These noises often suggest worn brake pads needing replacement.

Vibrations: Feeling vibrations when braking may indicate warped rotors.

Decreased Responsiveness: If brakes feel less responsive or require more pressure, it’s time for a check-up.

Warning Lights: Pay attention to any brake warning lights on the dashboard.

 Routine Inspections: Have brakes checked regularly by a professional. At Noosa Radiators & Car Air Conditioning, we advise a brake inspection at least annually or every 20,000 kilometres.

Brake Pad Replacement: Don’t wait until brake pads are fully worn. Early replacement can prevent damage to other components.

Check Brake Fluid: Ensure brake fluid is at the right level and uncontaminated. Replace it as recommended by your vehicle's manufacturer.

Smart Driving: Avoid abrupt stops and heavy braking. Smooth, gradual braking helps extend brake component life.

At Noosa Radiators & Car Air Conditioning, our skilled technicians are committed to ensuring your vehicle's safety and reliability. We offer extensive brake services, from inspections and pad replacements to rotor resurfacing and fluid changes. Trust us to maintain your brakes and vehicle in prime condition.

Ensure Your Safety This Winter: Comprehensive Pre-Winter Brake Inspections at Noosa Radiators & Car Air Conditioning

Winter is coming to Noosaville, bringing with it the challenges of wet and cold driving conditions. For car owners with limited technical knowledge, preparing your vehicle for winter might seem daunting. Yet, one critical aspect of your car that mustn't be overlooked is the braking system. That's where Noosa Radiators & Car Air Conditioning steps in, offering Pre-Winter Brake Inspections as a stand alone service but is always included with every car service, to ensure your vehicle remains safe and responsive on those chilly, wet roads.

Your vehicle's brakes are paramount to your safety on the road. In winter, wet and cold conditions significantly affect braking distance and vehicle control. Brakes in poor condition will only exacerbate these risks, making timely inspections crucial before the winter season kicks in.

Why Pre-Winter Brake Inspections are Essential

At Noosa Radiators & Car Air Conditioning, we understand that not every automotive workshop digs deep into the specifics of brake inspection. That's why we pride ourselves on our meticulous approach, especially concerning two critical aspects of your brake system: moisture content and brake fluid pressure.

What Sets Noosa Radiators & Car Air Conditioning Apart?

Our skilled technicians always perform a thorough moisture content check in the brake fluid. Moisture seeping into your brake system reduces the boiling point of the brake fluid, thereby reducing braking efficiency - a hazard you don't want to encounter, especially in wet winter conditions. Not all workshops undertake this vital check, but we at Noosa Radiators & Car Air Conditioning make it a staple of our service.

Alongside moisture checks, we pressure test the brake fluid to ensure there are no leaks or pressure issues within your brake system. This test further guarantees the effectiveness of your vehicle's braking capacity.

Understanding the importance of a vehicle's braking capability, especially during winter, goes beyond just the brake fluid. At Noosa Radiators & Car Air Conditioning, our Pre-Winter Brake Inspections cover all bases:

Worn brake pads or damaged rotors are a grave safety concern. Our experienced team checks these components for any signs of wear or damage, ensuring they're in top condition to handle the demands of winter driving.

Traction is key in wet and slippery conditions. During our inspection, we perform a visual check of your tyres, measuring tread depth and wear. Should we find your tyres compromised, we recommend having them thoroughly inspected by a local tyre specialist. This advice is part of our commitment to your safety on the road.

Winter driving in Noosaville, whilst not as cold as our southern states, demands a vehicle that's prepared to face the elements. Don't wait until the cold weather hits to discover your brakes aren't up to par. Book a service with Noosa Radiators & Car Air Conditioning and receive a comprehensive Pre-Winter Brake Inspection, ensuring your peace of mind on the road. 

Remember, prevention is always better than a cure, especially when it involves the safety of you and your loved ones. Drive safe, drive smart and let Noosa Radiators & Car Air Conditioning take care of your vehicle's braking system this winter.

Prepare for winter with Noosa Radiators & Car Air Conditioning's comprehensive Pre-Winter Brake Inspection services. Ensure your vehicle is safe & responsive for cold, wet roads.

Stay Safe This Winter with Pre-Winter Brake Inspections at Noosa Radiators & Car Air Conditioning in Noosaville

Brake fluid transfers the pressure you put on the brake pedal through to the actual brakes.
Without the brake fluid your brakes quite simply would not work. As everyone knows - not having brakes is a huge problem! In fact even slightly affected brakes are very dangerous.


Brake fluid absorbs moisture very easily. Brake fluids are also subject to very high temperatures and so they are designed to have a high boiling point to stop them from boiling and evaporating- when brake fluid has accumulated too much moisture- this lowers its boiling point and it can boil off more easily causing low levels. Low levels of brake fluid affect your braking performance and could mean your car will fail to stop.
Brake Fluid that has absorbed too much moisture will also shorten the life of your braking system including damaging the callipers, wheel cylinders and anti-lock braking systems.

Why is brake fluid replacement necessary?

Your manufacturer's log book will advise how regularly your brake fluid should be changed or flushed, we recommend a drain and replacement every two years however it is wise to have it regularly checked by an expert at every service to make sure the levels are not reducing too fast (a sign of a leak) or that the moisture levels have not reached a point that could be damaging your system.

How often should I replace my brake fluid?

At Noosa Radiators & Car Air Conditioning we offer a full 65 Point Vehicle Inspection report, upon request, with every full car service which includes a written review of your brake fluid, master cylinder, front and back discs and pads, callipers and cylinders and more. This inspection helps to identify any issues in your vehicle which should be addressed and our mechanics will certainly advise you if they feel your vehicle might need a brake fluid replacement, or an out of schedule brake system service or repairs.

Do you check the brake fluids during a car service?

Without the brake fluid your brakes quite simply would not work.

Brake fluid - what is it and why do I need it? 

When it comes to brakes, you should never wait until brake repairs are necessary.  

Proper testing and routine checkups, such as our 65 Point Vehicle Inspection which we provide with all full car services, are important to ensure your vehicle's brake system is in top condition.
