We recommend checking your brakes regularly and we advise performing a thorough clean every 6 months. This is a guideline and may need increasing dependent driving conditions.

The benefits of a new oil and filter change are abundant, it keeps your car engine clean, optimises performance and can even improve your fuel economy. Oil is often described as the ‘lifeblood of the engine’ since it lubricates and removes harmful deposits which may impact on your engine’s performance. Regular oil and filter changes are essential. You can never change your oil and filter too often.
The biggest enemy of an automatic transmission is the heat generated by the constant friction of clutch plates. Transmission fluid that is changed at recommended intervals helps disperse heat better, lubricates clutch plates, and contains fresh detergents to keep the transmission clean and operating properly.
If the fluid is not changed at recommended intervals, over time, important additives oxidize and break down, reducing the ability of the fluid to lubricate and protect. This may cause acid, rust and sludge in the fluid, which is the leading cause of transmission failure.
Conventional transmission service leaves about 60% of the old fluid still in the system in the torque converter and oil cooler this can cause malfunction of the transmission or complete failure
