Our Story
The Administrator of the EV & Hybrid Network of Certified Workshops, is The Automotive Technician Pty Ltd.
This is a unique business to business model, which offers its Members, who are primarily Independently Owned and Operated passionate Aftermarket Automotive Workshops, web based Technical Assistance.
This unique platform has created a huge pool of Technical Information across the complete Automotive spectrum, which has been filed and categorised for quick access. The EV & Hybrid Network of Certified Workshops has been formed from the 3000+ Australian Workshop Members of The Automotive Technician. It operates as a separate entity.
To be part of Network of Certified Workshops, each workshop must be certified within Australia’s AURETH system and/or attended an The Automotive Technician approved set of courses. This is for their safety and their Customer’s security
Our Tech Team
Within the group of EV & Hybrid Network Certified Workshops are some extremely talented Technicians who devote much of their life to continually learning and staying on-top of the most recent discoveries across the international stage, within the EV & Hybrid Servicing | Diagnostics | Repairs space. This group forms the nucleus of the Technical Team who provide web based and one-to-one support for the total group. EVs and Hybrids have presented Automotive Workshops in Australia with ‘new’ challenges, however due to the ingenuity of passionate Technicians, they have discovered the most time and cost-effective ways to address the variety of aspect of:
Servicing
Diagnostics
Repairs
The Preventive Maintenance Servicing of Electric Vehicles requires a similar level of regular Inspection Checks as do other ‘propelled’ vehicles, of course minus the internal combustion engine, as the electric motor tends to be a self-contained unit. However, depending on which configuration of EV you have, there will be a variety of aspects to be regularly monitored, as all EVs have some moving parts due to the reality that there is always a transition mechanism of the power to the wheels … and then there is the high-voltage cabling, plus many have cooling systems for the Battery Pack which require careful monitoring to ensure there is no fluid contamination of the Battery Pack+ there is an Air Filter check required for this pack and the critical ‘air access’ point to be checked as a blockage to this will cause heat acceleration resulting in damage to the Battery Pack. Of course, there is the necessary checks for Suspension, Brakes, Steering, Tyres, (which must be the correct load rating) and the typical vehicle items of Cabin Filter and Wiper Blades and various fluid checks for levels & quality. With an BEV (Battery Electric Vehicle ) there is less to be done than on a typical internal combustion engine vehicle, however regular checks are crucial!
Hybrids have the EV considerations + as they have an Internal Combustion Engine, so they require typical ICE ( Internal Combustion Engine ) vehicle inspections. The EV & Hybrid Network Certified Workshops use Manufacturers service schedules, while also taking into account your actual driving usage, to plan and execute the most effective Preventative Maintenance Servicing model for you!
These passionate Workshops can provide solutions.
