At Temby Auto Service, we’ve evolved with the cars you drive—without losing the values that built our reputation.

In the heart of Eltham, Temby Auto Service has been a trusted name for decades. Known for our attention to detail, mechanical know-how, and genuine customer care, we’ve built lasting relationships with local drivers—many of whom we now know across generations.

We’ve always had a soft spot for classic cars and Australian muscle—and that hasn’t changed. But over the years, something else has: the cars themselves.

Electric motors. Hybrid drivetrains. Lane-keeping assistance. Dash-integrated diagnostics. The average family car is now packed with more computing power than a spaceship from the ’60s.
That’s why we’ve transformed too.

At Temby Auto, we didn’t wait for the industry to force change. We took the lead.
As vehicles became more advanced, we invested in:

Keeping Up with the Times—And Getting Ahead

Specialist training in hybrid and electric vehicles

Certification through the NexDrive program

Tools and systems to keep pace with ADAS, software-driven servicing, and electric drivetrains

We did all this not just to service new cars, but to make sure every driver in Eltham and surrounding areas can come to a local workshop they know and trust, no matter what they drive.

Yes, we’re NexDrive-certified and ready for anything with a battery or computer system.
But you’ll still find us under the hood of a classic Falcon, Torana, Mustang or Monaro—tuning, rebuilding, and restoring with the same level of care we always have.

In fact, our modern equipment gives us more precision than ever before when working on older engines and drivetrains. So whether it's carb tuning or compression testing, we’re able to blend tradition with modern performance.

Hybrid and electric vehicles, including high-voltage battery systems

ADAS-enabled petrol and diesel cars with advanced safety features

Modern turbocharged and direct-injection engines

Plug-in hybrids (PHEVs) that require dual drivetrain servicing

And we do it all while following manufacturer specifications, so you can keep your statutory warranty fully intact—no dealership required.

As a Repco Authorised Service centre, your service is also backed by our nationwide warranty, wherever the road takes you.

Alongside our modern capabilities, we’ve updated how we connect with you, too.

Digital records mean we can track your car’s history with accuracy.

But we haven’t forgotten the personal touch. You’ll still talk to a technician who knows your name and your car’s quirks. You’ll still get a call if something unexpected comes up. And you’ll always get transparent pricing and honest advice—the way it should be.

At Temby Auto, we believe the best workshops are the ones that never stop learning.
Whether your vehicle is a cutting-edge EV or a Sunday cruiser from the ’70s, we’ve done the work to make sure we can look after it properly.

Our commitment to evolving with the industry, while staying rooted in community values, is what sets us apart.

Temby Auto Service in Eltham specialises in both modern and classic cars. NexDrive-certified for EVs and hybrids, with decades of trusted family-run experience.

Toyota Car Service in Eltham

Does your car get too hot under the bonnet?

In hot weather, it's good to know what to do if our car overheats. Imagine a typical Aussie summer day. You're on our way back from the beach in bumper to bumper traffic and the needle on your thermostat starts to rise. What do you do?

If this happens the first thing to do (unfortunately) is turn off the air-conditioning and open the windows. This will relieve some of the strain on the engine.

If this isn't helping then you might need to try turning the heater and fan on. This draws heat away from the engine and into the passenger compartment. It's good for the engine but not so good for the people in the car.

If you are in start-stop traffic try putting the car in neutral and revving the engine. This makes the fan and water pump speed up drawing more air and liquid through the radiator when the car is stationary.

Lastly, if you're in any doubt that your car is about to boil over ... PULL OVER, or risk serious damage to the engine! Open the bonnet and let the engine cool down.

Warning: DON'T open the radiator cap or try to fill it with water straight away. 

Firstly, this is dangerous as boiling water and steam could come exploding out of the radiator and cause serious injury. 

Secondly, adding cool water into the hot radiator could cause radiator and engine damage.

The best thing to do is make sure your cooling system is functioning well long before there is a problem. Next time you're at your local mechanic, ask for a check up on the cooling system. A good mechanic will keep on top of this as part of their regular car services. But if you're not in a good rhythm with regular servicing, then it might be as simple as adding a good coolant yourself until you can book your car in with a mechanic you trust.

Radiator & Cooling System services in Temby Auto Service

Not all cooling system failures are explosive in nature; in most cases it's a slow process that may start with you noticing puddles under the car or having to top off the coolant level regularly. These are often signs your radiator may be leaking.

Temby Auto Service in Eltham can perform a range of radiator repairs on most vehicles, including:

Get your Car Summer Ready and Book in your car for a radiator repair or replacement or contact us for a quote today.

Car engine cooling system failures rank among the top three causes of roadside breakdowns in Australia, with radiator failures accounting for a large percentage of these. A fully functional radiator and cooling system is essential in preventing overheating, which can cause expensive breakdowns and may result in serious engine damage. Modern engines also operate more efficiently within specific temperature ranges.

The temperature gauge may indicate a high coolant temperature in slow traffic but returns to normal during high speed driving. In some cases, you may notice a sweetish, “hot water” smell coming from the engine, or even notice actual steam coming from under the bonnet. All these symptoms are serious and should not be ignored. 

As a Repco Authorised Service centre, we employ highly trained technicians who are qualified to spot and correct problems which not only affect radiators, but all parts and components of modern engine cooling systems. When you have your cooling system inspected by Temby Auto Service, you gain the peace of mind that comes with knowing your vehicle's cooling system is up to the task of keeping your engine running at optimal temperatures.

Below are some commonly asked questions about radiators and cooling systems. We answer them here or you can call us today for a cooling system check. 

Why are there black flecks in the coolant?

What happens if I don't replace my leaking radiator?

What is a radiator flush and do I need one?

You'll enjoy the friendly service you expect from a local and trusted independent service centre, combined with the reassurance of the nationwide warranty backing provided by Repco Authorised Service.
