FAQ's
What does an MOT include?
MOT testing is set out by the DVSA to determine whether your car or vehicle is fit for purpose and in a roadworthy condition. A wide range of checks and inspections are carried out when you bring your vehicle in for an MOT. During the inspection, a range of safety checks are completed by DVSA-approved examiners at an MOT garage. Checks include but are not limited to lights, tyres, seatbelts and emissions.
During the MOT test, a comprehensive inspection is carried out to the vehicle. This is not the same as having your car serviced. If your car passes the MOT test, you will be provided with a pass certificate. Alongside this, you will receive a separate list that details any minor or advisory points that will require attention in the near future.
What type of service does my car need?
All new cars include a car service schedule, often in the form of a booklet or most recently, in a digital format. Your car service booklet can typically be found with the car user manual in the glove box.
Inside the service book, it details a series of mileages or time spans when the car will need to be serviced. Every time you take your vehicle in for a car service, the garage should stamp or sign the relevant section in the schedule. However, if your car is the digital format, we can work out which service your car requires with the registration number and the current mileage.
What's included in a car service?
There are two levels of service: Major and Minor.
A minor service involves changing the engine oil and oil filter, cabin filter replacement and a thorough inspection of lights, suspension, brakes and tyres. Screen wash topped up and tyre pressures adjusted.
A major service will include all the above as well as a new air filter, fuel filter and spark plugs on petrol engines. Additionally you may also require a brake fluid change, air conditioning service, diagnostic scan or wheel alignment.
How often does my Air Conditioning need to be services?
As a general guideline, you should get your air conditioning serviced once every 2 to 3 years, at a minimum. It is estimated that a car’s air conditioning system will lose about 10% of its refrigerant every year.
How often should my tyres be checked?
It is recommended that you should check your vehicle’s tyre pressure every couple of weeks. In an ideal scenario, you should check your tyre tread depth every two weeks, but more realistically, it should be done at least every month. When left unchecked, tyres can quickly become deflated; this can result in uneven wearing of the tread and increase fuel consumption. We can check tyres while you wait, any time without an appointment.
