Summer is here, and that means beach trips, air conditioning, and hot, hot engines! The last thing you want is to have a breakdown and be stuck on the side of the road in the heat. We’ve provided this handy checklist of things that need to be checked on your car to get it ready for summer.

Your car’s A/C needs to be used every year in late spring or early summer - we currently have these on offer Old air con regas for just £59.95 +vat and New air con regas for just £89.95+vat

Your radiator and cooling system also need to be checked. Of course, the coolant fluid needs to be topped off, but that’s just the final step. Most vehicles need a coolant system flush and refill every 24 months. Hoses and belts need to be inspected and make sure to tell your mechanic if you notice any color liquids on the ground or sweet smells coming from your car after it’s been running. These can be signs of a coolant leak, which needs to be addressed immediately.

Regular oil changes should be done every 3000 miles, or as recommended by your vehicle’s manufacturer. Neglecting this is a very common cause of expensive engine repairs, engine replacement, or even having to buy a new car! If your vehicle is towing or hauling heavyweights, or you do mostly stop and go driving, ask your mechanic if more frequent oil changes are needed to keep your car running well.

Tires should be rotated and balanced every 5000-6000 miles, or roughly with every other oil change. This will extend the life of the tires and give you a smoother, more comfortable ride. Of course, the air pressure in your tires needs to be checked every week or two, especially if you’re doing lots of driving. Don’t depend on ‘they look okay’. By keeping your tires properly inflated will also extend the life of your tires and increase the comfort of the ride.

Finally, have your brakes checked regularly. We will check your brakes as part of our routine maintenance checklist when in for a service and recommend when or if they need to be serviced or replaced. Brake fluid also should be checked routinely, and most people either have this done at the same time as their oil changes or when the oil and coolant levels are checked. Make sure you tell us if your brakes squeal or grind, or if they’re not working properly. Brake failure at any time is bad. Brake failure at the wrong time can be a catastrophe!

Give us a call on 0151 356 8156 and we will be more than happy to help!
