Mechanical Repairs

Fast, insurer-friendly repairs that minimise disruption and restore drivability and safety.

Why This Service Matters

Collisions can damage more than panels—steering, braking, cooling and driveline systems can all be affected. AMA Collision restores safe operation with OEM-aligned methods, I-CAR trained technicians and a lifetime workmanship guarantee, integrated within our collision repair process.

Clear Quotation & Insurer Liaison

Itemised estimates support approvals; we coordinate directly with insurers and confirm parts ETAs.

3
Mechanical Strip & Diagnostics

Access components, verify damage, pressure-test cooling, measure suspension, and run OEM-level diagnostics.

4
Structural & Mechanical Repair

Complete approved structural work, then replace or repair affected mechanical components to specification.

5
Reassembly & Fluids

Renew fasteners where specified, torque to values, refill/bleed systems and validate for leaks.

6
Systems Scans & Road Test

Clear faults, relearn modules where needed, confirm braking, steering feel and temperature stability.

7
Final QA & Handover

Second-person checks confirm workmanship; you receive documentation, warranty details and care guidance.

Capabilities and Equipment
Dealer-Grade Diagnostics

OEM-capable scan tools read, code and reset modules, supporting fault-finding after collision-related impacts and repairs.

Brake Test Equipment

Electronic brake testers verify balance, pedal feel and ABS performance following suspension or frontal impacts.

Alignment & Geometry

Four-wheel alignment racks restore caster, camber and toe, improving handling, tyre wear and safety post-repair.

EV-Safe Procedures

High-voltage isolation, PPE and manufacturer steps protect technicians and vehicles during collision-related mechanical work safely.

Torque Tools

Calibrated torque wrenches and angle gauges ensure correct fastener clamping on steering and suspension components.

Fluid Service Systems

Coolant vacuum-fill, pressure testing and A/C evacuation equipment validate seals and refill systems to specification.
