Quick Question... When Was Your Brake Fluid Last Changed?

If your answer is "more than 2 years ago" or "no idea", it's probably time to have it checked.

Brake fluid naturally absorbs moisture over time, reducing its effectiveness and increasing the risk of:

βœ“ Reduced braking performance
βœ“ A soft or spongy brake pedal
βœ“ Corrosion within the braking system
βœ“ Increased stopping distances

Most manufacturers recommend replacing brake fluid every 2 years, even if your vehicle seems to be driving perfectly.

At GX Landrovers, we can test your brake fluid and replace it if required, helping to keep your braking system performing exactly as it should.

The Most Expensive Service Is the One You Skip

Regular servicing isn't just about changing the oil. It's about spotting small issues before they become expensive repairs.

A routine service can help:

βœ“ Keep your Land Rover performing at its best
βœ“ Improve reliability and fuel efficiency
βœ“ Identify worn components before they fail
βœ“ Maintain your vehicle's service history and value
βœ“ Reduce the risk of unexpected breakdowns

Whether your vehicle is due an interim, full or major service, our experienced technicians use quality parts and manufacturer-approved procedures to keep your Land Rover in top condition.

Don't wait until a warning light appears. Preventative maintenance is always more affordable than major repairs.

Got a puncture? Don't assume you need a new tyre.

Not every puncture means replacing the tyre. Whether it can be safely repaired depends on where the damage is, its size and the condition of the tyre.

Under British Standard BS AU 159, a puncture can usually be repaired if:

βœ“ The damage is within the central three-quarters of the tread
βœ“ The puncture is 6mm or smaller
βœ“ The tyre has not been driven on while flat or seriously underinflated
βœ“ There is no structural damage found during an internal inspection
βœ“ There isn't an existing repair in the same area

A tyre cannot usually be repaired if:

βœ— The damage is in the sidewall or shoulder
βœ— The puncture is larger than 6mm
βœ— The tyre has been driven on while flat, causing internal damage
βœ— There are cuts, bulges or exposed cords
βœ— The tyre has suffered other structural damage

The only way to know for certain is with a proper internal inspection. If you've picked up a puncture, don't guess. Book it with us and we'll advise whether a safe repair is possible or if a replacement is the only option.

Hot weather puts your cooling system to the test.

When temperatures rise, your engine has to work even harder to stay at the correct operating temperature. If your cooling system isn't performing as it should, a small issue can quickly turn into an expensive repair.

Watch out for these warning signs:

βœ“ Engine temperature running higher than normal
βœ“ Coolant warning light or low coolant level
βœ“ Steam coming from under the bonnet
βœ“ Sweet smell from the engine bay
βœ“ Heater blowing cold air when it's set to hot

Keeping your cooling system in good condition helps prevent overheating, protects your engine and keeps you moving, even on the hottest days.

If you have any concerns, give us a call and let our team check it over before a minor issue becomes a major one.

Poor fuel economy? Struggling to start? Engine feeling sluggish?

It might not be anything major. Worn spark plugs are a common cause of reduced performance and are often overlooked during routine maintenance.

Replacing spark plugs at the recommended service interval can help:

βœ“ Improve fuel economy
βœ“ Restore engine performance
βœ“ Make starting easier
βœ“ Reduce misfires and rough running
βœ“ Keep your engine running efficiently

If your car is showing any of these signs, don't ignore them. Give us a call and we'll be happy to check things over.

Five minutes under the bonnet can save hours at the roadside.

Before you head off on a long journey, take a few moments to check these essential fluids:

βœ“ Engine oil - Keeps your engine lubricated and protected. Check the level with the dipstick and top up if needed.
βœ“ Coolant - Helps prevent your engine from overheating. Always check the level when the engine is cold.
βœ“ Screenwash - Essential for clear visibility, especially on long motorway journeys. Top it up before you set off.
βœ“ Brake fluid - A low level could indicate worn brake components or a leak. If the level has dropped, have it inspected.
βœ“ Power steering fluid (if your vehicle uses it) - Low fluid can make steering heavier and may indicate a leak.

Not sure what you're looking at? Book in and we'll be happy to check your vehicle before your trip, giving you extra peace of mind for the journey ahead.

Hot car? Weak air con? It doesn't have to be that way.

If your air conditioning is only blowing warm air, taking ages to cool down, or has an unpleasant smell, it's probably time to get it checked.

A healthy air conditioning system doesn't just keep you comfortable. It also helps demist your windows, improves air quality and makes every journey more enjoyable.

Give us a call to book your air con check and stay cool on the road this summer πŸ“ž 01242 672125
