Manufacturers recommend that your vehicle’s air conditioning should be recharged with gas and lubricant every 2 years to keep it running effectively and efficiently. This service isn’t usually part of your annual vehicle service so if your vehicle is over 2 years old then a recharge is probably due.

If you notice a performance change in your braking system or know that it has been put under an unusual amount of stress, you should organise to have your brakes inspected and if necessary, replaced. Brakes are the vehicle’s most important piece of safety equipment, and having worn-out pads or shoes can be extremely dangerous in braking situations.

The MOT is your annual test to ensure your vehicle meets road safety and environmental standards. The test is compulsory on all vehicles over 3 years old. The price shown is for a Class 4 MOT applicable to cars and small vans with up to 8 passenger seats.

It is important to have your vehicle serviced regularly in order to keeping it running well and to detect any faults or parts that need to be replaced. Most automotive centres will carry out vehicle servicing, although some specific vehicles will require a specialist.

Having a TPMS fitted to a vehicle can be very useful to the driver in everyday and emergency use. The system relays tyre information to a display in real-time allowing the driver to monitor when inflation is needed or a tyre has malfunctioned.

The simple act of banging a kerb or hitting a pothole can skew your wheel alignment. Poorly aligned wheels result in irregular and accelerated tyre wear and can affect the handling and safety of your vehicle. Let us give you peace of mind and ensure you get the maximum wear from your new tyres by ensuring the wheels are correctly aligned. Please note that the price shown is for two wheel alignment.

As with anything, tyres will sometimes become damaged through use. This can be especially annoying when your tyres are new and unworn but have been punctured or ripped. Tyre technicians are able to repair your tyres, provided the damage is not catastrophic and will not constitute a danger in the future.
