You never know what hazards even your daily commute will throw at you. From dangerous drivers to unexpected wildlife encounters, your brakes need to perform the second you hit the pedal. Our brake specialists at AVR will ensure that if you need to slow down suddenly, your brakes will keep the lives of both you and the ones in your car safe.

Flashing lights on the dashboard should never be ignored, especially if they relate to any part of your engine. Our state-of-the-art diagnostic tools can isolate an issue quickly, saving you time and money where the only other option might have been to pull your engine apart and find out what’s wrong manually.

Car batteries’ have a knack for failing at the worst possible time. At AVR Automotive, we offer routine checks, as well as competitively priced replacements if the need should arise. You’ll never have to worry about getting stuck in the middle of nowhere again!

Poorly aligned wheels aren’t just a risk for your car, they can put everyone else on the road in danger. We recommend having your steering checked at least once a year and if needed, book in for a wheel alignment with our expert technicians at AVR Automotive.

Just like the other liquids in your car, over time your transmission fluid begins to foul with use and can begin to harm your car rather than help it. A regular flush-out performed by our mechanics will keep your car running smoothly.

Anti-lock brakes prevent your wheels from locking if you happen to decelerate quickly. They do this by controlling the pressure applied to the brake during an emergency stop. Like with most complex pieces of machinery, there’s far more individual parts that can fail over time, putting the lives of those in your car at risk. We perform routine checks on anti-lock brake systems every single day and pride ourselves on helping our customers maintain the safety features installed in their vehicles.

A blocked or congested air filter will accelerate the wear on your engine and cause poor performance, leading to an overall increase in fuel consumption. Contrary to popular belief, air filters should never be cleaned with compressed air or wiped down and then placed back in the engine. Blocking microcontaminants is the purpose of an air filter and simple cleaning will not remove these from a used filter.

Shock absorbers work to soften the impact of bumps as you drive along a road. Over time and regular use, your shock absorbers will naturally wear out and require replacement to ensure that every drive is comfortable for you and your passengers.
We encourage you use this simple test to find out whether your shock absorbers need replacing. Compress each corner of your car and see how it reacts as it springs back into place when you let go. If your car moves steadily back to its original position, your shocks are in fine condition. If your car springs back and forth on each side of its original position like it’s on a jumping castle, your shocks are worn out and need replacing. If you’re unsure about the result of this test or just want the hassle taken out of your car maintenance. Contact our friendly staff at AVR Automotive and we’ll do the hard work for you.

Specialised BYD Servicing & Repairs You Can Rely On

Regular servicing is essential for maintaining your BYD, whether you drive a fully electric vehicle or a plug-in hybrid. Although electric vehicles have fewer moving mechanical components than conventional petrol and diesel vehicles, they still require inspections and maintenance to support their performance and safety.

Our automotive services cover a range of maintenance and repair requirements, including general car servicing, oil and filter changes for applicable models, brake inspections and repairs, battery testing and replacement, suspension and steering repairs, wheel alignment and air-conditioning servicing. We can also investigate suitable electrical and diagnostic concerns, depending on your BYD model and the equipment required.

Following your vehicle's recommended maintenance schedule helps identify potential problems early and reduce unnecessary wear. Our team can assess your vehicle and explain any recommended maintenance or repairs so you can make informed decisions about its care.

Common BYD Problems and Solutions

BYD vehicles incorporate advanced electronic systems and electric vehicle technology. While individual models and driving conditions vary, owners may occasionally experience mechanical, electrical or charging-related concerns. Recognising warning signs and arranging professional inspections can help determine the cause and prevent further complications.

Battery and Electrical Issues

BYD vehicles use high-voltage traction batteries to power their electric drivetrains, while conventional low-voltage batteries support various electrical systems. Problems with the low-voltage battery can cause starting difficulties in applicable models, warning messages or issues with electronic functions.

If your BYD displays electrical warnings or experiences unexpected power-related problems, a diagnostic assessment can help identify the cause. AVR Automotive can assist with applicable conventional battery testing and replacement. High-voltage battery diagnosis and repairs may require specialist equipment and an appropriately qualified EV technician.

Brake Wear and Unusual Noises

BYD electric vehicles use regenerative braking to recover energy during deceleration. Although this can reduce reliance on conventional friction brakes, brake pads, discs and other components still require regular inspection and maintenance.

Squealing brakes, grinding sounds, vibrations or changes in braking performance should not be ignored. Our technicians can inspect braking concerns and recommend appropriate repairs to help maintain safe stopping performance.

Charging Concerns and Warning Lights

If your BYD experiences charging interruptions, displays battery-related warnings or shows an unexpected change in driving range, several factors could be responsible. These may include charging equipment, environmental conditions, driving habits or a potential vehicle system fault.

A change in driving range does not necessarily indicate a battery problem. However, persistent charging difficulties or warning messages should be investigated to determine the underlying cause.

Our team can discuss your vehicle's symptoms and help identify suitable diagnostic options. Repairs involving high-voltage battery systems, charging components or manufacturer-specific software may require referral to an appropriately equipped specialist.

Suspension and Steering Concerns

Uneven tyre wear, steering vibrations, pulling to one side or unusual knocking sounds may indicate suspension wear or incorrect wheel alignment. These issues can affect driving comfort, handling and tyre life if left unaddressed.

Our technicians can inspect your BYD's steering and suspension components and arrange wheel alignment where required.
