Coolant & Heater Hoses
Hoses are used throughout your vehicle’s cooling and heating systems to keep them working in tough conditions, including Toronto winters. While they act as a vital part of these systems, hoses can also be a weak point. Regular maintenance of these hoses will ensure you don’t have to worry about coolant hose failure — and bringing your vehicle in to our service centre means you don’t have to worry about working with these hoses, since they can be potentially dangerous.
When you bring your vehicle in to our technicians, they will thoroughly inspect the hoses for any cracks, nicks, and bulges. While they’re at it, our technicians will check for proper fluid levels in the white coolant-recovery tank, and they can also flush and replace the coolant.
Accessory Belts
- Alternator
- Water Pump
- Power-Steering Pump
- Air-Conditioning Compressor
That being said, you still need to get your belt routinely checked. Our technicians will look for fraying, cracks, and splits in the top cover that could indicated bigger issues. Your belt will also be checked for excessive wear and signs of glazing when you bring it into our shop, and we will replace it with Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) parts that are exact replicas of your vehicle’s current parts, ensuring the new belt runs smoothly in your vehicle’s larger system.
