Avoid the painful moment when you switch on the wipers at the first drop of rain and suddenly remember you haven't checked them in months! Being exposed to full force of the Australian sun all year round makes your wipers wear out. A good quality wiper blade like Trico is essential to help you see your way clear regardless of the weather. Athena Automatics can recommend a wiper blade or assembly that is right for your car.

Fluids and other parts in your car can be effected by cold weather; this includes coolants, oils and items such as glow plugs in diesel vehicles. It's essential to get your vehicle regularly serviced by a professional technician who recognises the right products and parts to maintain your vehicle in top condition. We use high quality NGK glow plugs and Penrite oils and fluids that are designed for Australian conditions.  

Driver Awareness! Driving to the conditions

It's essential to drive to the road conditions Slow down in wet weather or poor visibility and leave a larger than normal stopping distance between yourself and the vehicle in front. Drive on the safe side and book in today for a service or a Vehicle Inspection Report.

Avoid Collisions! Could you stop in time?

There are warning signs that your brakes need some work, including vibrating, spongy or slow responding brake pedal, strange sounds or difficult handling when applying pressure to your brakes. If you notice any of these it's best to have a qualified professional check it out. Brake inspections form part of our 65 Point Vehicle Inspection Report, so if you have concerns call us today and book in.

It's dangerous to drive on bald or incorrectly inflated tyres. Now is the time to take a good look at your tyres. If you notice spots which are worn unevenly, this could indicate that your shock absorbers or some other vital part of your steering and suspension systems are due for service or replacement. Find out more about the components that affect your tyre wear on the links below: 

Driving on tyres which are not inflated correctly will not only cost you extra fuel money; it can also impact your stopping ability. You can usually find manufacturers recommendations on a panel inside the driver side door.

This Winter, Keep Your Car Running Smoothly and Safely with Tips for Maintaining Brakes, Tyres and Fluids.

Our Tingalpa car service is fully licensed by Queensland Transport to perform inspections and issue Safety Certificates. Call Athena Automatics now to book a Roadworthy Certificate inspection!

The Safety Certificate offers buyers better protection and makes sure vehicles being offered for disposal or being re-registered are safe - reducing the number of defective vehicles on Qld roads.

In Queensland, you must obtain a roadworthy/safety certificate if:

When transferring registration to a new owner

when transferring to Queensland registration from another state or territory

when re-registering an unregistered vehicle.

Unless exempt, unregistered second hand and registered interstate vehicles must have a Safety Certificate as part of the Queensland pre-registration process. This includes:

Trailers and caravans with an aggregate trailer mass (ATM) of 0.751-3.50 tonnes 

Any other vehicles up to 4.50t gross vehicle mass (GVM).

All cars fitted with LPG require a Gas Certificate to be issued by a licensed gas fitter (in addition to the Safety Certificate). This involves an inspection to ensure the gas equipment is safe.

A Safety Certificate lasts for 2 months or 2000km if it is for private use, or 3 months 1000km if it is for a licensed dealership. The Safety Certificate is for only one transfer (sale or re-registration) and you will need to get a new one if you sell the vehicle. Even if you decide to sell the vehicle a week after you purchase it, and the Safety Certificate is still within valid dates, you will need to pass another safety inspection and receive a new safety certificate.

As directed by the Department of Transport and Main Roads, the Safety Certificate checklist includes the inspection of the following aspects of your car:

Lamps (lights) and electrical components 

The price of a Safety Certificate inspection is controlled by Queensland Department of Transport and Main Roads. If you think you have been quoted more than you should be to get a Safety Certificate for your car, check with us at Athena Automatics for the correct price. 

Note: a safety certificate inspection is not a comprehensive inspection of the vehicle or the engine. Before purchasing any used vehicle, we recommend that you contact Athena Automatics for a full mechanical inspection of the vehicle.

It is the seller's legal responsibility to provide the Safety Certificate and complete any roadworthiness related repairs required before the certificate can be issued. You should never be persuaded to get your own Safety Certificate as any necessary repairs will be at your cost.

If you want to maintain the safety of your vehicle, as well as safety certificates, we also offer a 65 Point Vehicle Inspection report or a fully comprehensive 150 point vehicle inspection which is perfect for pre-purchase reports, end of warranty checks, or long road trip preparation. The Athena Automatics professional team are always happy to discuss your requirements with you - call us today.

In Queensland you must obtain a roadworthy/safety certificate if you want to transfer ownership of a vehicle.  Athena Automatics are an Autorised Inspection Station.
