Why do garages try and sell me a water pump when I have my cambelt changed....? No, we are not trying to extract a little bit more money from you, we are actually trying to save you some money! A water pump costs upto about £50.00 and are generally driven by the timing belt (cambelt). If we do not replace the pump at the time of the cambelt, and the water pump fails, you'll have the expense of paying labour and for a new belt, along with the water pump depending on how the water pump fails. This example, all the fins have broken off meaning coolant cannot flow around your engine, and will result in overheating, and possible headgasket failure or damaged cylinder head. If the bearings seize, this can take out the cambelt, and can result in the pistons striking valves, and that as you can imagine, isn't a good thing! Spend the extra and save in the long run!
Despite the cooler weather arriving, we are still seeing a flow of air conditioning services! We are however seeing a lot of battery testing coming in, this is a free service we offer, and you receive a nice little printout with the information on to keep. You are under no obligation to have a battery supplied and fitted by us. We carry a small selection of batteries in stock ready to replace, these all carry a 3 year warranty! The extra load winter puts on your battery can finish it off, come down and see us for the free test, to make sure you wont be caught out
Its getting cold outside! How many of us have already put the central heating on at home? Spare a thought for the poor battery in your car too! They struggle with the cold when weak, and with the additional strain caused by heated screens, fan blowers, lights, and wipers all on at the same time this could kill a poor battery. Sometimes without warning too. Don't get caught out, pop down and see us, we can test your battery FREE ! For a small fee, we can also test the starting and charging system. Both tests come with a print out — Products shown: Starting, Charging & Battery Testing.
