🚗 Team Spotlight - Meet John Millar! 🚗

This week we'd like to introduce you to John Millar, one of the experienced technicians here at Crescent Motoring Services.

John joined us in July 2025 and brings over 30 years of experience to the workshop, having qualified as a vehicle technician back in 1993! Safe to say, there isn't much John hasn't seen when it comes to cars! 🚙

Born and bred in Burton-on-Trent, John loves being in the motor trade and enjoys helping customers keep their vehicles safe and reliable. His knowledge, practical approach and attention to detail make him a valued member of Team Crescent.

Away from the workshop, John is married to Louise, has four sons who keep him busy, enjoys walking his dog Bruno, has a keen interest in photography.
We're delighted to have John on board and know many of our customers have already benefited from his wealth of experience.

Give him a wave if you see him in the workshop! 👋😊

🔋How Healthy Is Your Vehicle Battery?

Your car battery works hard every day, but most of us don't think about it until there's a problem!

If you've noticed any of the following, it could be time for a battery health check:
⚠️ Slow engine starting
⚠️ Dim headlights
⚠️ Dashboard warning lights
⚠️ Electrical issues inside the vehicle

Modern vehicles rely heavily on their batteries, and a weak battery can leave you stranded when you least expect it especially if your vehicle is left a while when you are away.

The good news?
👉A quick battery check can identify potential problems before they become a breakdown.

If you're unsure about the condition of your battery, pop into Crescent Motoring Services and we'll be happy to take a look.
➡️Book it in here - https://www.crescentmotoringservices.com/contact-us/
or give us a call on 01283 509000.

🚘Heading Away This Summer? ☀️

With the start of July nearly here and the school holidays will soon be underway, many of us will be packing up the car and heading off on holiday.

Before you set off, why not make sure your vehicle is ready for the journey?

✅ Check your service schedule.
✅ Make sure your tyres are in good condition.
✅ Ensure your air conditioning is working properly and keeping you cool.
✅ Get any warning lights or concerns checked before you travel.

There's nothing worse than breaking down or discovering your air con isn't working when you're stuck in holiday traffic! 🌞

If your vehicle is due a service or you'd like your air conditioning checked, give the team at Crescent Motoring Services a call and we'll be happy to help.
