A safe vehicle must be able to stop and manoeuvre over a wide range of road conditions.  To be able to stop and manoeuvre quickly there must be good contact between the tires and the road.  The suspension is responsible for keeping the tire firmly planted on the road.

We undertake a comprehensive test with each wheel tested independently.

We all dream of a greener future and new legislation requires exhaust emissions to be reduced to certain levels.  Our test will show your vehicles current Co2 emissions and we’ll even make suggestions as to how to reduce them even further.

With many of us often sharing a car with our family, their safety becomes paramount.  During a brake test we will identify any deterioration in your brakes, thus ensuring any issues can be addressed.

Proper tire maintenance is an important safety function often neglected.  The importance of properly maintaining your tires cannot be overemphasized.  Remember, tires are the only contact between your vehicle and the road.

From time to time your headlights may move out of alignment.  This can be dangerous for other road users and it can also reduce your night time visibility.  We’ll check your headlight alignment and their general condition.

Your vehicle should roll forward in a perfectly straight line.  Poorly aligned wheels can result in uneven tyre wear which can affect your cars safety, fuel consumption and comfort.   Using the very latest technology our technicians will align your vehicles wheels bringing you an instantly notable difference in fuel bills and comfort

Wheel balance refers to the even distribution of weight around a revolving tyre and wheel assembly.  Your wheels need to be balanced with small counter weights to prevent them from having heavy spots that can cause vibration and premature wearing of tyres, struts, shocks and other steering and suspension components.

Systems Pressure Check; This is a relatively basic test whereby our technicians will perform a pressure test on the vehicles air-conditioning pipework.

Leak Check; Using the latest in Ultra Violet equipment, we will check your entire air conditioning system to ensure there are no leakages.  Leakages can ultimately damage the system and result in higher fuel usage.

 Efficiency Check;  Continuous use of the Air Conditioning unitid helps prevent the build up of mould and harmful microbes inside the Micro Filter.  However, in order to keep the system at peak efficiency it should be checked on a regular basis.

Drainage & Replacemen; Every year up to 10% of an air-conditioning units’ refrigerant can due to natural evaporation.  The refrigerant can t also become contaminated with water, air or dirt.  We’ll drain all of the old fluid and replace it with a completely fresh supply.

We’ll ensure your dispenser is in good working order and we’ll top up your fluid levels to minimise inconvenience to you.

We’ll ensure your bulbs are working sufficiently enough to ensure your safety.  As well as the safety aspect broken or expired lights can lead to penalty points.  The check takes little time and it’s free, so there’s no excuse.
