At MIT Automotive, we understand how essential it is to keep your caravan or trailer in top condition for safe and hassle-free journeys. Whether you're heading out on a holiday or rely on your trailer for work, regular servicing is key to ensuring everything operates smoothly and safely. We offer comprehensive caravan and trailer servicing in Fyshwick, covering everything from tyres and brakes to suspension systems and chassis inspections. Here’s what we check and why it’s important.

• Tyre Pressure: Underinflated or overinflated tyres can lead to uneven wear and impact your towing stability. We’ll check and adjust the tyre pressure to the correct specifications.
• Tyre Condition: Bald spots, cracks, or uneven tread wear could indicate an issue. We inspect for damage and ensure your tyres meet legal and safety standards.
• Wheel Bearings: These small but crucial components allow your wheels to spin freely. Over time, wheel bearings can wear out, leading to unsafe driving conditions. We check for wear and re-grease or replace them if necessary.

• Brake Pads: Over time, brake pads wear down, reducing their effectiveness. We check for wear and replace pads when needed.
• Brake Fluid: Fluid levels and quality are crucial for hydraulic brakes to function correctly. We top up or replace the brake fluid if necessary.
• Electric Brakes: If your trailer is fitted with electric brakes, we ensure the wiring and connections are functioning correctly and make any adjustments needed for optimal braking performance.

• Indicators & Brake Lights: We check all lights to ensure they are working correctly and are bright enough to be seen clearly.
• Reflectors: Reflectors are critical for visibility, especially at night. We make sure they’re clean, intact, and securely attached.
• Wiring & Connectors: Damaged or corroded wiring can lead to malfunctioning lights. We inspect all electrical connections and repair or replace any faulty components.

• Leaf Springs: We inspect for cracks, wear, and proper alignment to prevent sagging or uneven suspension.
• Shock Absorbers: These ensure a steady ride by controlling bouncing and vibrations. We check their condition and replace them if they’re worn out.
• Axles: A bent or misaligned axle can cause uneven tyre wear and affect towing stability. We ensure the axles are in good condition.
• Lubrication: Greasing all moving parts, such as shackles and bolts, reduces wear and prevents rust.

• Inspection: We look for cracks, wear, or any signs of damage that could compromise safety.
• Fitment: We ensure the hitch and coupler are securely fitted to avoid any mishaps on the road.
• Greasing: Regular greasing prevents rust and reduces wear, extending the life of these critical components.

• Rust & Damage: Rust can weaken the frame, while any cracks or damage can impact towing performance. We thoroughly inspect for signs of corrosion or structural wear.
• Alignment: Misalignment can cause towing issues, uneven tyre wear, and unnecessary strain on the suspension. We ensure everything is straight and balanced for smooth towing.
