Taking care of your car

Many garages & workshops are closed right now due to COVID-19 restrictions, but if you have to use your car, it is important to keep safe on the roads and avoid breakdowns by checking your oil levels and topping up coolants & screenwash.

Engine Oil

All vehicles, whether old or new, need oil in their engines and on working parts to help keep them lubricated. The oils help prevent friction, causing wear and tear and rust, all of which can lead to expensive repairs and breakdowns. Engine oils also help with fuel economy and reduced C02 emissions.

We sell Car Engine Oil online from £4.44 for 1 litre

Screenwash

Screenwash is important for clearing dirt, oil
and other fluids from your vehicle’s windscreen which can otherwise limit your
visibility. Making sure you have enough under the bonnet is therefore important.

Our All Seasons Screenwash is an excellent concentrated screenwash which removes traffic film, dirt and insect residue.  It also contains antifreeze to prevent freezing during the winter months. For more details visit our online shop.

Brake Fluid

Brake Fluids have a limited life due to water absorption and the depletion of corrosion inhibitors over time. Wear particles and rubber fragments will also slowly build up.

We recommend that glycol-based brake fluids, (DOT 3 brake fluid, DOT 4 brake fluid, DOT 5.1 brake fluid) should be flushed, or changed, every 1-2 years. Car manufacturers advise periodic fluid changes to ensure the reliability and safety of the vehicle.

Brake Fluid is available to buy in our online shop from £10.19 for 1 litre

Engine Coolant

Together with the right engine oil, coolant (antifreeze) is the most important liquid found within your vehicle.

The main function of a coolant today is to stop the engine
overheating when hot and / or freezing when the temperatures outside drop below
zero.  It also protects an engine from corrosion. Many modern engines are
manufactured with aluminium components which are prone to water corrosion.

We offer a choice of three products to suit all budgets and performance needs. Take a look at our online shop for more details.

We can deliver engine oil and workshop products to you at home or work – with next day delivery available from Monday-Friday.
