There should never be a rumbling, groaning or grinding sound coming from the wheels of your car, nor any vibration through the steering wheel (unless, of course, you're driving over corrugated roads).

Wheel bearing issues usually come about due to poorly sealed bearings or lack of lubrication. Worn bearings are very dangerous as they can collapse and cause the wheel to detach from the car. They can also cause uneven wear on the tyres, loud noises and vibrations in the car.

Wheel bearing failure: symptoms and causes

The wheels on your vehicle need to operate in a smooth manner, regardless of surface and speed. When there is damage to the wheel bearings, the drive is no longer smooth as friction can build up. This friction can then break down the wheel bearings and cause wear and tear on the axle.

All Point Auto Repair Centre can give you peace of mind by advising you what is causing the loud noises or vibrations in your vehicle. It may be time to come in and see our mechanics if you are experiencing any of the following symptoms:

Damaged or leaking seal on the wheel bearings

Brake fluid is a crucial component in your vehicle's braking system, acting as the hydraulic force that enables you to stop your car efficiently. Over time, however, this essential fluid can deteriorate, leading to compromised brake performance. As you drive, brake fluid naturally absorbs moisture from the air, which reduces its boiling point. This moisture absorption can lead to corrosion within the braking system, affecting its overall efficiency. It's critical to understand how this deterioration occurs and the steps you can take to maintain optimal braking performance.

Why Flushing is Essential for Your Vehicle's Health

When brake fluid's boiling point is reduced, it can lead to a dangerous condition known as brake fade. This occurs when the fluid heats up during heavy braking, causing it to vaporise and form gas bubbles. Gas, unlike liquid, is compressible, leading to a spongy brake pedal and reduced stopping power. In extreme cases, this can result in total brake failure. Regular maintenance of your braking system is essential to ensure your vehicle remains safe to drive.

Flushing your brake fluid is an effective way to maintain your vehicle's braking system. During a brake fluid flush, the old, contaminated fluid is replaced with fresh, high-quality fluid. This process helps remove any moisture, air bubbles, and debris that may have accumulated over time. By doing so, you can restore the fluid's original boiling point and ensure your braking system operates at its best. Regular brake fluid flushes can extend the life of your vehicle's braking components, saving you money on costly repairs in the long run.

By opting for a brake fluid flush, you can drive with confidence knowing your brakes will perform when you need them the most. The experienced mechanics there understand the importance of using the right type of brake fluid and will ensure the job is done to the highest standards. Not only does this improve the safety of your vehicle, but it also provides peace of mind for you and your passengers.

Brake fluid transfers the pressure you put on the brake pedal through to the actual brakes.
Without the brake fluid your brakes quite simply would not work. As everyone knows - not having brakes is a huge problem! In fact even slightly affected brakes are very dangerous.


Brake fluid absorbs moisture very easily. Brake fluids are also subject to very high temperatures and so they are designed to have a high boiling point to stop them from boiling and evaporating- when brake fluid has accumulated too much moisture- this lowers its boiling point and it can boil off more easily causing low levels. Low levels of brake fluid affect your braking performance and could mean your car will fail to stop.
Brake Fluid that has absorbed too much moisture will also shorten the life of your braking system including damaging the callipers, wheel cylinders and anti-lock braking systems.

Why is brake fluid replacement necessary?

Your manufacturer's log book will advise how regularly your brake fluid should be changed or flushed, we recommend a drain and replacement every two years however it is wise to have it regularly checked by an expert at every service to make sure the levels are not reducing too fast (a sign of a leak) or that the moisture levels have not reached a point that could be damaging your system.

How often should I replace my brake fluid?

At All Point Auto Repair Centre we offer a full 65 Point Vehicle Inspection report, upon request, with every full car service which includes a written review of your brake fluid, master cylinder, front and back discs and pads, callipers and cylinders and more. This inspection helps to identify any issues in your vehicle which should be addressed and our mechanics will certainly advise you if they feel your vehicle might need a brake fluid replacement, or an out of schedule brake system service or repairs.

Do you check the brake fluids during a car service?

Without the brake fluid your brakes quite simply would not work.
