Cooling System Check and Repair

The cooling system circulates coolant throughout the engine to remove almost a third of the waste heat. Only a portion of the heat produced by combustion converts to mechanical energy to drive the engine. Coolant is a blend of chemicals and water that will prevent corrosion inside the engine. When driving in cold weather, you may need to add anti-freeze. Don’t fall prey to an overheating engine – especially in the hot Australian climate - check the engine coolant levels every time you refuel and keep an eye on your temperature gauge. If the gauge creeps out of normal range, stop the car, and call us. If you find that you have to top up the fluid often or perhaps you see a puddle of fluid under the car, it may indicate a leaking radiator or hose, and you need us as soon as possible. Cooling systems serve vital functions of your vehicle:

Removes excess heat from the engine
Preserves optimal engine operating temperature
Raises the engine temperature to the perfect level as quickly as possible.

We can ensure your cooling system functions optimally by carefully inspecting the following and doing the necessary fixes:

Cooling fan
Radiator
Water pump
Thermostat
Hoses
Top up engine coolant if necessary.

The ExcelTune team will optimise cooling systems for the ideal engine running temperature and keep it that way. We always follow the vehicle manufacturer’s directions when adding coolant.

I was at my wits end when I took my car to Exceltune.

“I was at my wits end when I took my car to Exceltune. I’d owned it for a few years & was never happy before me had done to it. It had an aftermarket exhaust, K&N filter & possibly a previous tune, but it drove like a turd. I consulted 3 euro specialists (2 in depth), & couldn’t believe they weren’t straight onto it. Jacques spent the time with me (we went for a test drive, he drove, I explained), he got it. When he said he would fix it or I wouldn’t pay, I was hopeful but sceptical. I still own, he still services it. I drive across town, it’s inconvenient, but I was so happy with the job, I go back. It was a while ago so you’d have to ask him about pricing. If I hadn’t found someone who could fix it, I’d have sold it (or crushed it) long ago. Matt”

Increased power and torque

“Took my Mini F56 JCW to Exeltune for an ECU Remapping, it was done within 3 hrs, then took it for a test drive. Wow I can feel the immediate gain of power and torque the second my foot was on the accelerator, engine responsiveness and throttle was awesome. Overall I was very impressed with result and it was a pleasure to deal with Jacques, I find that he’s direct and honest, extremely knowledgeable. Would definitely go back to Exceltune if my vehicle needs work done in the future. Highly recommend Jacques to anyone decide to get ECU Remapping.”

My car now runs perfectly

“These guys know their Euro cars and how to tune a diesel engine. I have a 320d msport and this as standard is not such a quick car but with the service and tuning from exceltune the 0-100kmh time dropped by over three seconds with fuel ecomomy still quite good.”
