Having your vehicle serviced is very important as all modern vehicles have engine management systems to keep it in tune for all its working life. Worn plugs, blocked filters and poor oil quality can have a big effect on your engines performance and economy.

If your vehicle is more that 3 years old, then we can carry out our own standard service, this may be the best option if you are unsure of your vehicles service history. As an Independent Servicing & Repairer we are able to select your service and repair items from the world’s best known brand names. This ensures that your vehicle is always serviced and repaired with OE specification parts and lubricants.

REPAIRS

Camshaft drive belt, also known as timing belt, do break and they can cause serious engine damage. Camshaft drive belt technology has got better with a more durable material such as Highly Saturated Nitrile (HSN). For this reason camshaft drive belts should last until the manufacturers recommended mileage change. It is usually something else that causes it to fail prematurely, ie: water pump failure, guide pulley, belt tensioner, oil or antifreeze contamination.

Serpentine V belts, more commonly know as your alternator or fan belt, are now very common on most vehicles. These belts drive your alternator, power steering, water pump and air conditioning. If your belt breaks it will not cause any damage to your engine so long as you stop driving. If you can see radial cracks across the belt then have it changed at your next service.

BRAKES/ABS

With the ever increasing efficiency of braking systems (ABS) and harder materials being used in the construction of brake pads, it is now quite common for brake discs to wear at the same rate as your brake pads. If you do a lot of motorway driving with high speed stop starts then disc changes may be required at 30,000 miles. Under normal driving conditions discs will probably last up to 60,000 miles. We ensure your vehicle is always fitted with the highest quality brakes meeting OE specifications.

Most manufactures recommend changing brake fluid at 2 year intervals, this is because brake fluid will absorb moisture from the air. The water in the brake fluid causes the fluid to boil at a lower temperature. How does it get that hot? Take a look at F1 racing; you can quite often see the brake discs glowing. Your disc may not get that hot but quite close during high speed braking. If your fluid boiling point is low it may cause brake fade or in some cases brake failure. We will test your brake fluid for free, if it boils at 189c or lower - then we recommend you have it changed.

If you ABS light stays illuminated it means there is a fault on the system. Your ABS system will be turned off, although you will still have brakes, this is also an MOT failure. We can diagnose and rectify this on most models.

AIRBAGS/SRS

Modern vehicles are fitted with sophisticated safety devises to help protect the occupants in the event of an accident. On occasions you maybe aware that you have a light illuminated on your dash board saying SRS or just a picture of an airbag. If this light is illuminated there is a fault in the system and the entire airbag/srs system has been disabled, & if you were unfortunate to be involved in an accident none of these safety devises would function.

We can carry out a diagnostic check of the system for you and repair the fault on most makes of vehicles.

ELECTRICS

With vehicle electrics becoming more advanced and complicated we are able to locate and rectify faults to most vehicles, whether it is changing a light bulb to fitting a stereo system or replacing a complete wiring loom.
