If you’re looking for Heavy Duty Truck Repair, you’ve come to the right place.

COMMON SIGNS YOUR heavy duty TRUCK NEEDS A MECHANIC

Whether you’re running a single heavy-duty truck or a large fleet, making sure that you adhere to the manufacturer’s service intervals is vital.

TLC Auto and Truck Repair Centre will make sure that your truck receives all the planned maintenance it requires and that any issues that are found are dealt with efficiently.

If your truck is experiencing the following symptoms, it is suggested that you seek our help as any of these warning signs can be an indicator of a more severe problem.

• Any warning light that is currently being displayed
• Fluids leaking from the truck
• Lights that are inoperative or dimmer than normal
• Difficulty with cold starts
• Unusual noises or vibrations
• Difficulty shifting gears
• Cracking or bulging in the sidewall of your tires
• Irregular tire wear
• Whining noises or vibrations coming from the wheels

COMMON MECHANICAL MALFUNCTIONS

Heavy-Duty Truck Brake Service

Heavy-duty trucks have a large amount of mass that requires an effective, functioning, and reliable braking system. Brake failures have the potential to cause a dangerous accident.

The braking system on a heavy-duty truck requires more maintenance than a conventional vehicle. Scheduling a regular brake service is the best way to deal with problems as they arise and prevent small issues from becoming larger problems

Heavy-Duty Truck Air System Repair

Heavy trucks that haul large loads subject the systems in them to significant wear and tear over time. This is especially true of the pneumatic systems in most heavy-duty trucks

The air system in a heavy-duty truck is responsible for many of the functions the truck relies on to operate safely and efficiently. Our mechanics are ready and waiting to make sure that your pneumatics are not suffering from failing components and that the entire system is running smoothly.

Coolant Leak Services

The cooling systems on any heavy-duty truck are complicated. Leaks are notoriously difficult to locate, requiring expertise and the use of the correct diagnostic tools when dealing with them. Even the smallest leak can have severe consequences. This can lead to complete engine failure in the event of a major problem.

It’s vitally important that any leak is quickly identified and dealt with before it results in costly repairs and downtime. Unfortunately, leaks tend to worsen over time so if your heavy-duty truck is losing fluid or over-heating then it’s time to bring it to us at TLC Auto and Truck Repair Centre.

Transmission and Clutch Service

The transmission and clutch of a heavy-duty truck require regular maintenance and the replacement of consumable items to be at their best

A well-maintained clutch allows a driver to shift gears easily, get better engine performance and increase fuel economy. It also allows for the safe operation of the vehicle. 

The transmission should always be kept topped up with fluids that are regularly replaced at the recommended service intervals. Staying on top of small issues when they arise in the transmission is the best way to avoid a more expensive repair or replacement.

THE BENEFITS OF OUR heavy duty truck repair

Savings – A properly serviced and maintained heavy-duty truck will be more reliable and spend longer on the road where it belongs. Identifying small faults before they worsen avoids the need for more expensive repairs at a later stage.

Efficiency -Making sure that the tires, transmission and clutch, braking system, and pneumatics are functioning correctly means the truck will be operating well and doesn’t use more fuel than it should.

Better Traction – AWD cars can produce excellent performance due to their increased grip capability and weight distribution. Quality wheel drive repairs provide smoother handling and improved performance.

Safety – A poorly maintained and serviced heavy-duty truck can be dangerous to the driver and other road users. Making sure that your truck is well maintained avoids the risk of an accident due to an unexpected failure.
