Auto Super Shoppe Sydenham

At Auto Super Shoppe Sydenham, we know that tyres, brakes, and batteries play a crucial role in keeping you and your family safe on the road. Ensuring these components are in top condition not only enhances your vehicle's performance but also provides peace of mind for every journey.

Tyre Safety

Tread Depth

Maintaining proper tread depth is essential for optimal grip, especially during braking and cornering. The legal minimum tread depth in New Zealand is 1.5mm across three-quarters of the tyre’s tread pattern around its entire circumference. This standard is critical for safe driving in wet or slippery conditions. Many tyres include tread depth indicators to help you monitor wear. If any part of your tyre has less than 1.5mm of tread, it’s time to replace it promptly to maintain safe handling.

Tyre Pressure

Keeping the correct tyre pressure is just as important. Under-inflated tyres can reduce fuel efficiency, cause uneven wear, and compromise handling, while over-inflated tyres may lead to poor traction and reduced safety. At Auto Super Shoppe Sydenham, we recommend checking your tyre pressure regularly to ensure your vehicle operates efficiently, safely, and economically.

Brake Safety

Your brakes are one of the most critical safety components of your vehicle. Worn brake pads, damaged rotors, or faulty hydraulic systems can significantly reduce your stopping power and put you at risk. At Auto Super Shoppe Sydenham, we:

• Check brake pad thickness and wear.
• Inspect brake rotors for damage.
• Test the entire braking system to ensure it’s functioning reliably.

If you notice any signs of brake issues, such as unusual noises, vibrations, or reduced stopping efficiency, it’s important to have them checked immediately.

Battery Health

A reliable battery is essential for starting your vehicle and powering its electrical systems. At Auto Super Shoppe Sydenham, we test your battery’s charge and overall condition to ensure it’s performing as it should. Common signs of a failing battery include:

• Slow engine cranking.
• Dim headlights.
• Warning lights on your dashboard.

Regular checks can help identify battery issues before they leave you stranded. If a replacement is needed, we’ll provide the right battery for your vehicle and ensure it’s installed correctly.
