Xbox Series X/S Overheating Fix Australia
Series X consoles 3+ years old usually need a thermal service. We strip, clean every vent, replace thermal paste with Kryonaut Extreme, and load-test under Forza or Halo before shipping back.
Not your exact symptom? All faults and prices: Xbox repair.
Honest, upfront pricing
Diagnosis confirms the final price before any work — our $88 service fee only applies if you don't proceed.
Common causes
- Dust build-up — Series X vents collect lint fast
- Original thermal paste dried out — typical after 3 years
- Fan bearing wear — loud whine or rattle
- Console in enclosed shelf

Questions, answered
How much is Xbox overheating repair?
Pricing starts at $160. We confirm the final price before any work starts. Decide not to proceed and it's just our standard $88 service fee plus postage.
How does mail-in work?
We email you a prepaid, insured AusPost label. You drop it at any post office. We diagnose it and quote a fixed price. If you approve the repair, a flat $100 shipping (both ways, fully insured) is added to your invoice on top of the repair — nothing to pay upfront.

3-month workmanship warranty — if our work fails, ever, we re-do it. TMR stick upgrades use magnetic sensors with no contact wear, so the sticks themselves are immune to drift.
