Porsche Logbook Servicing
Regular logbook servicing is essential to maintain the performance, safety and longevity of your Porsche. At Hartech Automotive, we adhere to Porsche’s recommended service intervals of every 12 months or 10,000 km (whichever comes first) to ensure your vehicle stays in peak condition. Our logbook servicing follows factory specifications, ensuring that your car is maintained as well as it possibly could.
Whether it’s a 911, 924, 928, 968, Boxster, Cayenne, Panamera, Macan or another Porsche, we’ll conduct a thorough inspection, change your oil and filters, check fluid levels, examine your brakes, suspension, tires and much more. We’ll also inspect your engine and transmission for potential issues, using genuine & OEM parts to ensure your car remains as close to factory as possible.
Repairs
Accidents happen, and over time, parts wear out. Hartech Automotive offers comprehensive repair services to repair any issues with your Porsche. Whether it’s fixing a damaged bumper, replacing a faulty sensor, or performing a major engine overhaul, our skilled team is equipped to handle all types of repairs.
We work with state-of-the-art tools and diagnostic equipment specifically designed for Porsche models, ensuring precision in every repair. From electrical issues to exhaust systems, mechanical repairs and facilitating bodywork, we cover all aspects of Porsche repair and guarantee high-quality workmanship.
Diagnostics
As technology has evolved, so have the methods for diagnosing cars. Porsches, with their sophisticated electrical systems, require advanced diagnostic tools for precise troubleshooting. At Hartech Automotive, we’re equipped with the latest Porsche system testing and diagnostic equipment, capable of handling models from the earliest 1989 vehicles to the most recent ones.
Whether you’re dealing with an engine misfire, an ABS warning light or a transmission issue, our specialised tools allow us to interface directly with your vehicle’s onboard computer to pinpoint the exact problem. After diagnosing the issue, we’ll recommend the most effective solution to get your Porsche back on the road with confidence.
Keys and Locks
At Hartech Automotive, we provide expert key and lock services for a range of Porsche models. We are able to program keys and remotes for 993, 996 and 997 vehicles, ensuring they work seamlessly with your car. For older models, such as the Porsche 928, we can source, cut and recode keys.
Whether you need a replacement key or remote, or your locks require re keying, we have the tools and expertise to deliver efficient and reliable key and lock services for your Porsche.
Roadworthy Certificates
In Victoria, a roadworthy certificate is required when selling, re-registering, or clearing a vehicle defect. As authorised providers, Hartech Automotive offers comprehensive roadworthy inspections for all Porsche models.
Our roadworthy inspections cover everything from tyre condition, brake performance, steering and suspension, to the vehicle’s body and structural integrity. Upon passing the inspection, you’ll receive a roadworthy certificate for your car.
Pre-Purchase Inspections
Considering buying a Porsche? Let Hartech Automotive help you make a well-informed decision with our expert pre-purchase inspections. We perform a meticulous front-to-back assessment of the car, identifying any underlying issues that could lead to costly repairs in the future. Our inspection covers everything from the engine, transmission and brakes to the car’s suspension, bodywork and electrical systems.
After completing the inspection, we will provide you with a detailed report, complete with photographs and an honest assessment of the vehicle’s condition. With Hartech’s expertise, you can buy your next Porsche with confidence.
Brake Repairs
Brakes are one of the most critical safety systems in your Porsche. If you hear squealing noises, feel vibrations when braking, or notice that your car doesn’t stop as quickly as it should, it’s time to have your brakes inspected. At Hartech Automotive, we specialise in diagnosing and repairing brake systems on all Porsche models.
Whether your brake pads need replacing, your brake discs need machining, we’ll ensure your brakes are responsive and safe. We use high-quality genuine & OEM parts from trusted manufacturers like Textar, Zimmerman and Brembo to guarantee you’re getting the best parts for your Porsche.
Air Conditioning
Your air conditioning system is essential for staying comfortable in your Porsche, especially during the hot Australian summers. If your A/C isn’t blowing cold air or is making unusual noises, Hartech Automotive can diagnose and repair the issue. Our team will check for refrigerant leaks, inspect the A/C compressor, clean the condenser and replace any faulty parts.
We service both automatic climate control and manual A/C systems, ensuring that your Porsche stays cool and comfortable no matter the weather.
Transmissions
Are you experiencing issues with your transmission, such as slipping when cold, trouble shifting, or a clutch pedal that won’t return? Whether your Porsche has a manual or automatic transmission, Hartech Automotive is equipped to handle repairs, rebuilds, and servicing. Common transmission problems include slipping gears, delayed shifting, grinding noises, and difficulties with clutch engagement or disengagement. Our expert team will perform a comprehensive diagnosis and address any damaged components, including clutches, gears, torque converters, and valve bodies. For manual transmissions, we also manage clutch replacements and pedal repairs.
With our specialised equipment and extensive Porsche knowledge, we’ll ensure your car shifts smoothly, just like it did when it first left the showroom.
Tyres & Wheel Alignments
When was the last time you checked your tyres? Do you know their age or condition? Quality tyres and precise wheel alignments are crucial for both safety and performance in your Porsche. Worn or misaligned tyres can lead to uneven wear, poor handling, and are unsafe and reduce fuel efficiency.
At Hartech Automotive, we provide comprehensive tyre services, including inspections, replacements, and balancing. We can also ensure your wheel alignment is spot-on, helping your Porsche drive smoothly and handle beautifully while minimising tyre wear. Whether you need a fresh set of tyres or just a precise alignment, we’ve got you covered.
Engine Repairs
The heart of every Porsche is its engine, and keeping it in peak condition is vital to enjoying your car stress free. If your engine is leaking oil, misfiring, or not producing the horsepower it once did, Hartech Automotive can help. Our purpose-built engine room is equipped to handle everything from minor repairs to complete engine rebuilds. We specialise in fixing oil leaks, replacing worn-out seals, complete rebuilds and restorations.
We use only the best parts from Porsche & OEM suppliers like Bosch, Sachs and other trusted brands, ensuring your Porsche’s engine is as powerful and reliable as the day it was built.
IMS Bearing Replacements (986 and 996)
Intermediate shaft (IMS) bearing failure is a well-known issue for Porsche 986 and 996 series engines, and it can lead to catastrophic engine damage if not addressed. Hartech Automotive offers IMS bearing replacements using LN Engineering IMS retrofit and solution products, designed to prevent this failure and extend the life of your engine.
Our team is highly experienced in performing this critical service, ensuring your Porsche’s engine remains reliable for years to come.
Suppliers and Partners
At Hartech Automotive, we are committed to using only the best parts for your Porsche. We source genuine Porsche and OEM components from trusted suppliers such as Bosch, Valeo, ATE, Textar, Zimmerman, Sachs and Brembo, ensuring that every repair and service meets the highest standards of quality and performance. These partnerships allow us to provide durable, reliable parts that help keep your Porsche running like new, no matter its age or model.
