A proper service at Zilzie Workshop goes well beyond just an oil change. Following the manufacturer’s log book schedule protects your warranty and gives you confidence that your car is being maintained correctly. It’s also the perfect time to check the systems that matter most in spring, such as:

• Tyres and wheel alignment – Correct pressure, good tread depth and proper alignment help maintain grip on wet roads and can improve fuel efficiency.
• Brakes, suspension and steering – Any moisture or debris picked up over winter can accelerate wear. A service will spot corrosion or worn parts before they become dangerous.
• Cooling system – Fresh coolant, healthy hoses and intact belts are essential as days get warmer, preventing overheating when you need your car most.
• Air-conditioning system – A regas or cabin filter replacement keeps the cabin cool and clean, and ensures the system runs efficiently without wasting fuel.
• Battery and electrics – Spring is a good time to check battery health, clean terminals and make sure all lights and indicators are functioning correctly.

Servicing also covers the small but crucial details that make a big difference: fresh engine oil, clean filters, topped-up brake and steering fluids, and a quick check of your wipers and windscreen for damage. With heavier rainfall returning in spring, clear vision is vital.

For drivers in Emu Park, there’s an extra reason to be proactive – salt air and coastal humidity can speed up corrosion. Checking underbody components and applying protection if needed can help your car withstand local conditions.

Spring is also a popular time for road trips, which makes it the perfect opportunity for a pre-trip check. The team at Zilzie Workshop can make sure your vehicle is road-ready, so you can focus on enjoying the journey instead of worrying about what might go wrong.

By taking care of tyres, brakes, fluids, electrics and air conditioning now, you’ll be rewarded with a safer, smoother and more reliable drive all season long. If your car is due – or overdue – for its service, booking with Zilzie Workshop before the hot weather really kicks in is one of the smartest moves you can make this spring.

So Spring into action and bring your vehicle into Zilzie Workshop in Emu Park for a service and check up to ensure it has made it through winter in good shape...
