Your vehicle is equipped with several different filters, each designed to function within a specific system in your car. At Keys Road Auto Service, we understand these systems thoroughly and provide expert servicing in Cheltenham and the surrounding areas.

Put simply, filters work to trap particles that could cause damage or don’t belong in the system they’re protecting. However, all filters have a limited lifespan – once they become clogged with the particles they’re designed to capture, they must be replaced. Failing to replace filters when needed can lead to costly damage in critical parts of your vehicle.

Oil Filter: Ensures the engine oil remains clean and flows efficiently through the engine, preventing wear and tear.
Air Filter: Blocks dirt, debris, and particles from entering the engine that could harm cylinders, pistons and other internal components.
Cabin Air Filter: Protects the car’s ventilation system by filtering out pollen, dust, and bacteria, ensuring clean air inside the vehicle.
Fuel Filter: Prevents contaminants from reaching the carburettor or fuel injectors, helping maintain proper fuel flow and performance.
Transmission Filter: Found in vehicles with automatic transmissions, it removes debris and metal shavings from transmission fluid to protect the gearbox.  

Did you know that a clean engine air filter can improve fuel efficiency by up to 10% in some vehicles? Ensuring all filters are in good condition not only safeguards your car’s systems but can also enhance its overall performance.  

At Keys Road Auto Service, we offer a comprehensive 65 Point Vehicle Inspection Report with every full car service, available upon request. This includes checking your car’s filters to help you avoid costly repairs and keep your vehicle running smoothly.

Keep your car running smoothly with clean filters. Discover the types, benefits, and expert services offered by Keys Road Auto Service in Cheltenham and surrounding areas.

Please see a selection of the kind words our clients have said about our service.

Great service at Keys Road Auto Service. Awesome guy - won't rip you off and will explain things. Had a service and wheel alignment done without going to two different places. Even got the loan car for the day so I didn't have to worry about getting there and back. Thanks heaps. Kylie on Facebook

Damien has to have the best work ethic and pride in his work - better than any mechanic I have encountered. I took my Hyundai there with a blown clutch which sounds like an easy enough job - except once new clutch plates etc. were installed, a mystery building up of pressure deemed my car undrivable... He gave me a loan car for the entire duration of 3 months while he tried and consulted with manufacturers a million different possibilities that might be the problem... any other mechanic would have refunded the initial service charge and sent me on my way. Damien worked tirelessly until the problem was solved. He is also just a lovely bloke to deal with ;) Jessica on Google

You know that great feeling when you've found the right service/tradie? Yup, now I have my car service guy at Keys Road Auto Service in Cheltenham. So easy to talk to, great service and pricing. A keeper. Highly, highly recommended. June on Facebook

I wouldn't take my car anywhere else! Great mechanic who is honest & reliable. I have been to Keys Road Auto Service on several occasions - quality every time!! Vicki on Facebook

Fantastic service! Keys Road Auto Service had me on my way in no time and for a fantastic price. Damien takes the time to explain what needs to be done and why (as a woman who is car illiterate, that's great as you know he is looking after you). Kelly on Facebook

Great service, quick & reliable. No hesitation with booking my car in for a total check over plus the need desperately for four new tyres. Even got their loan car for the day. Thanks, guys!!! Grant on Facebook
