Power Steering

West Car Clinic is a distributor and stockist of Australian Power Steering Components and our APS power steering system analyser lets us quickly and accurately diagnose faults in a power steering system. We can find the problem fast and save you money in the process.

Formed in 1986, Australian Power Steering (APS) is recognised as Australia's leading remanufacturers of power steering for modern motor vehicles.

APS exchange units are available for most locally produced and imported vehicles, including 4 wheel drives and luxury vehicles such as Jaguar, Mercedes-Benz, SAAB and Volvo.

The facilities and resources at APS are extensive and include state of the art Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM) equipment supported by highly sophisticated product test equipment.

Product range

The following remanufactured items are available for most vehicles currently on Australian roads:

  • Power steering exchange units and hoses
  • Power steering pumps
  • Power steering racks
  • Power steering boxes
  • Manual steering boxes
  • Manual steering racks
  • Pressure switch
  • Couplings
  • Filters

The security of a 3 year/100,000 km warranty

Every APS changeover unit is covered by an Australia-wide written guarantee. With authorised distributors in all capital cities and most regional centres, help is always nearby if a re-built unit needs attention (conditions apply - see written warranty for complete details).

The comfort of a 1800 customer support line

This widely acclaimed facility was introduced in 1989 and provides direct access to our customer service and technical advice from anywhere in Australia. It is available to all who have an APS unit fitted to their vehicle and to APS distributors and fitters who may require specialised technical assistance with a specific installation. Call 1800 335 634.

Suspension

As vehicle suspension specialists we stock and recommend Monroe Shock Absorbers.

Shock absorbers degrade over time. Tests confirm that having at least one worn shock may compromise vehicle safety.

Vehicle safety is dependent upon the interaction between a vehicle's tyres, brakes and shock absorbers. Steering and braking ability depend on the secure contact between tyres and the road - and when a shock absorber is not functioning properly, that contact is diminished.

Give yourself peace of mind. Call us and have your power steering and suspension components checked.

RAA Roadside Contractor

If you need prompt roadside assistance, West Car Clinic is there for you as an Royal Automobile Association of South Australia (RAA) contractor. All hours, day or night - we come to you.
