Why do we check these areas?
These areas are common to get wear and tear the difference between a safe journey and a disaster could be just down to the most minimalist item on your car.
Tyre care is now essential don't put off tyre checks and replacements any longer.
Tyres are essential in keeping you safe on the roads especially during the winter months with the risk of snow and ice.
Battery:
Battery failure is more common in the winter months, the colder the temperature gets, the slower the chemical reactions within the battery, resulting in reduced performance which kills batteries. During the winter, you naturally use more electrical components such as heating and lights which place additional demands on the battery.
Anti-freeze:
Your engine’s Anti-freeze level should be checked every winter to avoid causing serious damage to your engine. It is essential to check your anti-freeze levels as water alone can freeze causing serious damage.
Wiper blades and windscreen system and screen wash levels:
Visibility on the road is even more important in winter. Part of our service check includes inspecting your wiper blades to ensure they are not split and damage free. We also check the operation of your windscreen wash and make sure all levels are to the top
Light bulbs:
Ensuring your vehicle’s lights are working correctly is critical not only for your own safety and other road users. Having a faulty or damaged bulb is illegal so make sure you check these on a regular basis.
