It’s a crisp Dubbo morning, you’re running late, and your car won’t start. Frustrating? Definitely. Avoidable? Absolutely. At Forro's Auto-Tech, we understand how vital a healthy car battery is—especially when Dubbo’s colder months roll in. That’s why we offer quick, accurate battery testing and replacements, so you can avoid those early morning surprises. Why Batteries Struggle in Winter Weather Your car’s battery doesn’t like the cold. When the temperature drops, so does the battery’s ability to generate power. Meanwhile, your car needs more power to start because cold oil makes the engine harder to turn over. It’s the perfect storm—and it’s why winter is the peak season for battery failures. A battery that was “just hanging in there” during summer can fail without warning as soon as that chill hits. Signs Your Battery Might Be Giving Up Don’t wait until it’s completely flat. Here are a few things to watch out for: Slow or hesitant cranking when you start the engine Flickering or dim headlights Electrical accessories cutting in and out (radio, windows, central locking) Battery light or check engine light illuminated Needing a jump-start more than once More difficult starts on cold mornings Battery is more than 3 years old What We Do at Forro's Auto-Tech When you come in for a battery check at Forro's Auto-Tech, here’s what you can expect: On-the-spot voltage and load testing Full inspection of terminals and cables for corrosion or looseness Honest advice from qualified mechanics—no gimmicks, no guesswork If your battery does need replacing, we’ll fit a reliable, high-quality unit that suits your vehicle and driving needs. We stock trusted brands and offer quick turnaround times to get you back on the road fast. Don’t wait for the inevitable cold morning breakdown.

If you've ever wondered why your car's interior doesn't smell quite right, the answer might lie within a simple yet essential component: the cabin air filter. These filters, though often overlooked, play a crucial role in maintaining a pleasant and healthy environment inside your vehicle. What is a Cabin Air Filter and What Does It Do? A cabin air filter is a small, pleated device that works diligently to keep the air inside your car fresh and clean. Positioned in the ventilation system, it traps dust, pollen, mould spores, and other unwanted particles before they can enter the cabin. This is especially important for those with allergies or respiratory issues, as it helps ensure the air you breathe while driving is as clean as possible. The Smelly Truth: Why Change Your Cabin Air Filter? One telltale sign that your cabin air filter needs replacing is an unpleasant odour wafting through your car's vents. Over time, these filters can become clogged with debris, and when they're no longer effective, they can't stop odours from infiltrating your car's interior. Replacing the cabin air filter not only freshens up the air but also improves your HVAC system's efficiency, ensuring you get the best performance in both heating and cooling. Stay Ahead of the Game with Forro's Auto-Tech When it comes to maintaining your car's air quality, Forro's Auto-Tech stands out as the experts you can trust. We provide top-notch cabin air filters and are always ready to help you keep your vehicle in prime condition. Whether you're dealing with a musty smell or just want to ensure your cabin air filter is doing its job, our Dubbo workshop team has the know-how to get you sorted out. Regularly changing your cabin air filter is a simple yet impactful way to ensure a pleasant driving experience. So, next time you notice a funky smell in your car, remember that Forro's Auto-Tech has your back with the best cabin air filters in the business. Breathe easy, drive happy!

The Nose Knows: Why Changing Your Cabin Air Filter Matters

Keep your cool, without global warming. A proactive car air conditioning approach to protecting our environment.  As Australia begins phasing down HFC use (from January 2018), many new vehicle manufacturers may be switching to new air conditioning systems using the more environmentally friendly refrigerant R-1234yf, instead of R-134a. The benefits of using R-1234yf "Twelve Thirty Four", as R-1234yf is sometimes known, is an HFO type refrigerant delivering high performance, resulting in a more efficient air-conditioning system, fewer emissions and reduced fuel consumption. Hydrofluoroolefins (HFO's) have a double carbon bond meaning they trap less heat in the atmosphere than Hydrofluorocarbons (HFC's) and break down faster. Importantly, R-1234yf systems are specifically engineered to prevent refrigerant leakage and loss, including into the interior of the vehicle. The leakage of refrigerants contributes considerably to greenhouse gases. Why the switch? Older type refrigerants accumulate in the upper atmosphere as greenhouse gases and contribute significantly to Global Warming for a considerable time. In the mid-'90s, the old R-12 (or Freon), which takes a long time to break down into a non-greenhouse gas, was replaced with R134a, which breaks down much quicker. R-1234yf takes that improvement to the next level, breaking down in less than half the time of R-134a (and a fraction of the time R-12 can take). R-134a will remain in use for some time and a licensed mechanic can still service R-134a air con systems, but new vehicles will likely use the new systems with R-1234yf. Some already are. Irrespective of what type of refrigerant your car air conditioner uses, a car service workshop undertaking air conditioner service must have the right knowledge and equipment to handle these gases responsibly. You should always take your car to a mechanic with the skills and specialist equipment to undertake air conditioning service safely and correctly.
