2 PREFERRED SUPPLIER BONUS POINTS FOR EVERY DOLLAR SPENT ON FLASHLUBE CATCH CAN PRO & DIESEL FILTERS IN JANUARY 2021!
Since Wolfgang Kluenner’s first developments in 1979, Flashlube products have continued to evolve to meet the demands of modern vehicles.That’s why the new generation of Flashlube products are specifically designed to address issues associated with sensitive Common Rail Diesel engines. The Flashlube Diesel Filter prevents costly damage from water and dirt particles while the Flashlube Catch Can Pro is the answer to carbon build-up by filtering out oil mist before it can cause power loss or damage to your engine. To ensure your engine is kept clean and lubricated, the Flashlube Electronic Diesel Kit utilises the tachometer pulse to deliver the correct amount of Flashlube Diesel Conditioner. You can be assured that whatever the conditions, the new generation of Flashlube products will continue to provide optimal power and efficiency in your engine.

EVERYTHING YOU NEED FOR THE COMPLETE SUSPENSION JOB With a range including shocks, struts, bushes, tie rod ends, ball joints and more, NAPA Auto Parts has everything you need to complete your next suspension job without delay. We’ve partnered with the brands you trust, including Monroe, Nolathane, Kelpro and Global, to ensure the best outcomes for you and your customers.
SHOCKS Shocks are critical for the safe control, steering and braking of a vehicle. If they’re not in peak condition, worn shocks will add 2 metres to emergency stopping distances at 50km/h, increase tyre wear by up to 7% and reduce grip making it harder to steer. Signs of worn shock absorbers include: • Increased braking distance • Abnormal tyre wear • Less control of the vehicle, especially around corners • Oil on outside of body of shock when inspected
5
Most drivers only notice their shocks are worn by the time something goes wrong. Unfortunately, when coupled with a reduction in driving control, worn shocks will cost your customer in the long term. Many workshops only look for leaking shock absorbers but there’s more you can inspect for your customer to ensure their suspension is in the safest condition.
THE FIVE BEST WAYS TO IDENTIFY WORN SHOCKS 1. Listen for knocking sound in a road test, when driving over speed bumps 2. Bounce test the vehicle; it should stop after 1-1.5 bounces 3. Visually inspect the shocks for leaks 4. Check the bump stops for bottoming out 5. Check for irregular tyre wear cupping; a series of flat spots at regular intervals
