• SAAB Water Pump Replacements

  Summer in Australia is no laughing matter and a faulty water pump can affect your vehicle’s entire cooling system. JB Prestige’s service team is fully qualified to replace your Saab’s water pump and make sure the cooling system is functioning properly. The water pump circulates water and coolant from the engine to the radiator to keep consistent running temperatures. Pump coolants control your engine’s operating temperature for optimal performance. As coolant flows through the system, it picks up heat from the engine before arriving at the thermostat, which opens to allow hot fluid to travel to the radiator to be cooled. If the thermostat has become damaged, your Saab is at risk of overheating or worse. Don’t risk a 40-degree Aussie summer day stuck on the side of the road. Contact JB Prestige and our technicians will thoroughly check your entire cooling system and make sure it’s functioning properly. If there is a problem, our service team will repair it with the same high level of quality you can always expect from JB Prestige.

• SAAB Air-conditioning

  If you live in Melbourne, you can experience four seasons in one day. Australian summers are sizzling and our winters are freezing, so don’t take any chances with your Saab’s air-conditioning. If your air-condition is not emitting any cold air, that means there is absence of air-con gas which leads to a leakage and if left untreated, severe damage. At JB Prestige, we test and diagnose your air-con system to avoid the latter, so we can proceed to re-gassing of the system. Did you know that on average your vehicle loses around 10% of gas annually? That’s why JB Prestige checks interior vents for correct air flow and accurate climate control. Air-conditioning is no longer an “optional extra” in Australia and JB Prestige can repair and service your unit to make sure every drive is a comfortable one.
