⚠️ Our Roads Are Destroying Your Suspension!
This broken coil spring came in recently — and as you can see, the snapped end had been sitting directly on the tyre, damaging it beyond repair. All thanks to our wonderful road surfaces! 🙄
Potholes and broken tarmac put massive stress on suspension components, often with no obvious warning signs from inside the car.
Watch out for:
🔹 Clunking over bumps
🔹 Car sitting lower on one corner
🔹 Pulling to one side
Don't wait until it's too late — get your suspension checked before a broken spring costs you a tyre as well!
📞 Call or message us to book in.

Yesterday we had a Toyota in with a coolant loss issue.
After carrying out a pressure test and finding no external leaks, we then performed a block test… and as you can see, it instantly failed.
A block test is used to detect combustion gases in the cooling system, which is a strong indication of an internal engine problem such as a head gasket failure.
This is why proper diagnostics are so important — not every coolant leak is visible from the outside 👨‍🔧🚗

🌧️ All this wet weather got you sliding? 🌧️
With the rain sticking around, now’s the time to make sure your tyres are up to the job. Worn or poor-quality tyres seriously reduce grip on wet roads, increasing stopping distances and the risk of aquaplaning.
At D&A Automotive, we’re seeing plenty of cars come in with tyres that just aren’t safe for these conditions. A quick tyre check can make a huge difference to your safety (and everyone else’s) on the road.
If you’re not sure about your tread, pressure, or overall tyre condition, pop in and let us take a look – it’s always better to check than to chance it.
Stay safe out there and drive to the conditions 🚗💧
