Brake pads are a key part because they are the component that contacts and applies friction to the surface of the rotating brake discs to slow, and then bring the vehicle to a halt.
 

Brake pads undergo extreme stress every time you slow down or come to a stop. Over time, with each application of the brakes, friction material will wear down to the point where the pad needs to be replaced. It is recommended that brake pads should be replaced when the thickness of the friction material is worn down to 2mm or less as after this point, brakes become increasingly ineffective in slowing and bringing the vehicle to a halt.

As you would expect, customers who do a lot of stop/start motoring, mainly in urban areas, will wear through brake pads quicker than a driver who does the majority of driving on motorways where brakes are applied less frequently.​​


There is never a good time for your vehicle not to start, batteries often fail without any prior warning, our technicians can check, test and replace your battery giving you confidence that your vehicle will start when you need it.

For added piece of mind all of our approved batteries come with a 3-year parts and labour warranty​​


The Timing belt(or Cam Belt) is a crucial part of the car’s engine. It controls the timing of its moving components from the crankshaft to the engine valves. If it fails, it can cause significant engine damage or possibly result in the engine having to be replaced.
 

The timing belt is made of a rubber based compound which means it can deteriorate over time due to general wear and tear. Our service schedule identifies by specific age and mileage the intervals when a timing belt should be replaced and these intervals should be respected in all cases.​​
