At Bay Tyre & Automotive, we pride ourselves on offering friendly and reliable service without any unnecessary jargon. Whether you need a quick tyre check, a full replacement, or advice on maintaining your tyres, we’re here to help you feel confident about every journey you take.  Ensuring Safety, Optimising Performance, and Reducing Costs Tyres are crucial for maintaining safety and comfort during your travels, yet they frequently receive inadequate attention when it comes to vehicle upkeep. Making time to regularly inspect and maintain your tyres not only prolongs their lifespan but also guarantees safer, smoother, and more economical journeys over time. Let’s look into the reasons why giving your tyres the attention they deserve can have a substantial impact. Prioritising Safety Your tyres are the sole components of your vehicle that make direct contact with the road surface, making them essential for ensuring your safety. Properly maintained tyres enhance grip, shorten braking distances, and maintain stability, particularly in wet or icy conditions. Conversely, under-inflated or worn tyres can result in poor handling or even hazardous blowouts. Routinely checking the tread depth, air pressure, and overall condition of your tyres ensures they can perform optimally, safeguarding both you and other road users. Enhancing Performance Driving on improperly inflated tyres or those with uneven wear can noticeably affect how your vehicle handles. Neglecting tyre maintenance can lead to less responsive steering, diminished fuel efficiency, and a noisier ride. By ensuring your tyres are in good condition, you’ll benefit from smoother handling, improved cornering, and optimal fuel economy. Well-maintained tyres contribute to a more enjoyable driving experience and enable your vehicle to operate at its peak performance. Long-Term Cost Savings Tyre maintenance is not solely about safety and performance—it is also a straightforward method to save money. Under-inflated tyres generate more rolling resistance, causing your vehicle to consume more fuel. Similarly, poorly maintained tyres wear out faster, necessitating earlier replacement. Regular, simple checks can help avert unnecessary expenditures, from additional trips to the petrol station to the expense of a new set of tyres. Consider it an investment in maintaining your vehicle’s efficiency and preserving your financial resources. Simple Measures for Tyre Care Looking after your tyres does not need to be complex or time-consuming. A few straightforward steps can make a significant difference: Monitor the air pressure: Keep your tyres inflated to the recommended level, which is typically found in your car’s manual or on a sticker inside the driver’s door. Assess the tread depth: Ensure the tread meets the legal minimum requirement, generally 1.6mm. A simple tread gauge or even a 20 coin can assist you in this check. Inspect for damage or uneven wear: Minor cuts, bulges, or irregular tread patterns can indicate issues that require attention. Regularly rotate your tyres: Following your vehicle manufacturer’s recommendations for tyre rotation can promote even wear and extend tyre lifespan. Incorporating tyre maintenance into your routine ensures a safer, more efficient drive and helps you avoid unnecessary costs. This small effort yields substantial benefits—both for your vehicle’s performance and for your peace of mind. By attending to these straightforward tyre care practices, you’ll be well on your way to experiencing safer journeys, better vehicle performance, and noticeable cost savings. Regular maintenance is a modest investment of time and effort that pays off significantly in terms of safety, efficiency, and financial savings. In the end, it’s about making a big difference with a little diligence.

Keep your cool, without global warming. A proactive car air conditioning approach to protecting our environment.  As Australia begins phasing down HFC use (from January 2018), many new vehicle manufacturers may be switching to new air conditioning systems using the more environmentally friendly refrigerant R-1234yf, instead of R-134a. The benefits of using R-1234yf "Twelve Thirty Four", as R-1234yf is sometimes known, is an HFO type refrigerant delivering high performance, resulting in a more efficient air-conditioning system, fewer emissions and reduced fuel consumption. Hydrofluoroolefins (HFO's) have a double carbon bond meaning they trap less heat in the atmosphere than Hydrofluorocarbons (HFC's) and break down faster. Importantly, R-1234yf systems are specifically engineered to prevent refrigerant leakage and loss, including into the interior of the vehicle. The leakage of refrigerants contributes considerably to greenhouse gases. Why the switch? Older type refrigerants accumulate in the upper atmosphere as greenhouse gases and contribute significantly to Global Warming for a considerable time. In the mid-'90s, the old R-12 (or Freon), which takes a long time to break down into a non-greenhouse gas, was replaced with R134a, which breaks down much quicker. R-1234yf takes that improvement to the next level, breaking down in less than half the time of R-134a (and a fraction of the time R-12 can take). R-134a will remain in use for some time and a licensed mechanic can still service R-134a air con systems, but new vehicles will likely use the new systems with R-1234yf. Some already are. Irrespective of what type of refrigerant your car air conditioner uses, a car service workshop undertaking air conditioner service must have the right knowledge and equipment to handle these gases responsibly. You should always take your car to a mechanic with the skills and specialist equipment to undertake air conditioning service safely and correctly.

Modern radiator coolants not only protect your car from overheating, or the fluid from freezing, they also protect the radiator system from corrosion. Bay Tyre & Automotive in Deception Bay are very knowledgeable and experienced in looking after these systems.  It is recommended that you exchange your radiator coolant fluid every two years or 40,000 km's whichever comes first. However the size of the engine, the climate in your area, the age of your current coolant, and the total miles that have been driven can all affect the need to replace the coolant in your radiator. Knowing when to replenish your radiator fluid isn't always easy - obviously, when it has gone a dirty brown colour it's a sign it probably needs to be flushed and replaced - however even fresh-looking coolant could have lost its corrosion protection properties and without measuring its reserve alkalinity there's no signal that it is no longer protecting your vehicle components, and it could even be doing more damage than good. Maintaining good coolant means your radiator system will be much better protected from corrosion and will have a longer life span, it will help prevent you from having to replace expensive engine components. At Bay Tyre & Automotive in Deception Bay at your request, we will perform a full 65 Point Vehicle Inspection report for free as part of any minor, major or log book service. Part of this inspection includes checking the level and condition of coolant in your system and the written report will advise you if we feel a radiator flush, fluid replacement or any repairs are required to maintain the performance of your vehicle.

Even if it looks clean, your coolant still might need replacing!
