Oil Change & Servicing – AMC Car Repairs
Oil Change & Servicing – AMC Car Repairs Whilst we specialise in Auto Electrics & Diagnostics over the past 6 months or so, we have come across many vehicles that have not had an oil change & servicing carried out for some time.

Since covid, the number of people getting their vehicles serviced at regular intervals has dropped. People are now using … Continue reading

Car Maintenance
Car Maintenance: Cars can be expensive, but keeping on top of car maintenance and servicing can help reduce the costs in the long run. By leaving a fault or not regularly maintaining your car, you increase the chances of the initial fault developing into something much worse and often costing you more to put right. We find that cars that are serviced annually and have faults addressed quickly, have a much lower need for additional work and are less likely to break down on you. Obviously all cars have the potential to break down, however by carrying out regular maintenance and checks you reduce the chances of this hugely. Many people believe that their MOT Test is all that’s needed with regards to maintenance of their car. This is not true! An MOT test is only a visual inspection of … Continue reading

Car Filters Your cars filters are important to the longevity of your car and interior comfort and should be replaced regularly. Most Cars have 4 basic filters fitted as standard, here we describe them and their roles within the vehicle: Oil Filter traps contaminants allowing the oil to flow through the engine unrestricted. Fuel Filter separates harmful contaminants that may cause problems with injectors and fuel system. Air Filter traps dirt particles, which can cause damage to engine cylinders, walls, pistons etc. The Air filter also plays a role in keeping contaminants off the airflow sensor in fuel injected cars. Cabin Filter or Pollen Filter as its also known helps trap pollen, bacteria and dust that may find its way into the cars ventilation system. Filters are normal wear and tear items that require regular checks as part of a … Continue reading
