Service

leaks, damage and deterioration.

Air Conditioning ... part of
our full car service at Repco
Authorised Service
System inspected for operating
pressures, leaks, deterioration
or damage to any hoses, seals or
components. Drive belt tension
checked. System recharged with
refrigerant.
Unless your car is one of the
latest models, its air
conditioning system uses a
refrigerant called R12
containing fluorocarbons
(CFC's). It is important to
operate the air conditioner at
least 5 minutes every week to
prevent the system seals from
drying out and leaking this
ozone-depleting substance into
the atmosphere.
All new cars use a CFC free
refrigerant known as R134a which
is far less damaging to the
environment. Here's how your
car's air conditioning system
operates:
- The refrigerant is
contained under pressure in
a Receiver/Dryer. The system
must he recharged with
refrigerant when a low level
is indicated.
- The refrigerated cold
air passes through the
evaporator where it mixes
with warm air from inside
the car. The refrigerant
evaporates and absorbs the
heat. The cooled and
evaporated air is returned
to the car and circulated
via your blower.
- The vaporised
refrigerant, meantime,
passes into the compressor
where it is pressurised once
more.
- The pressurised
refrigerant is forced into
the condenser coils where
the refrigerant condenses
back into liquid form to
repeat the cycle once more.

Brake Service ... part of our
full car service at Repco
Authorised Service
Brake Service Includes disc pad
or brake shoe replacement on
front or rear wheel, using
quality pads. We can also
provide disc and drum machining.
Your car's disc brakes are
one of the most vital operating
systems of your car. By knowing
a little more about how the disc
brakes work, you'll better
understand the importance of
regular checks and servicing.
- Wheel bearing grease
must be applied to the wheel
hubs to reduce heat
generated by frequent
applications of the brakes
- The calliper has one or
more hydraulic cylinders
containing pistons. Whenever
you press the brake pedal,
the pistons exert pressure
on the brake pads.
- Brake pads are metal
plates with a bonded lining
of friction material. As the
lining material wears out,
the metal pad moves closer
to the disc. Pads should be
replaced when less than 3mm
from the disc.
- Retaining pins hold the
disc pads in the calliper.
New split pins are always
fitted during replacement.
- The disc can be easily
scored and damaged if the
metal plate comes into
contact with the disc. When
below certain tolerances it
must be replaced.
- A bleed nipple is
provided to ensure that any
air entering the hydraulic
lines is "bleeded" off. Even
a small amount of air in the
system will severely impair
the operation of the brakes.
