A little timelapse of another busy day at LG Local Garage 🔧

The workshops have been pretty much non-stop lately, with MOTs, servicing and repairs keeping the lads busy!

Our diary is filling up quickly, so if you know your MOT or service is coming up, or there’s something on the car you’ve been meaning to get looked at, it’s worth getting booked in sooner rather than later.

Give us a call and we’ll get you in the diary 👍

Thanks as always for keeping us busy, we really appreciate it!

⚠️ This is why your tyres are worth checking regularly…

This tyre came into the workshop noticeably out of shape, something that can happen when the internal cords of the tyre become damaged, distorted or start to break down.

The scary bit? From a quick glance, a tyre like this might not always look as bad as it actually is.

Once the internal structure of a tyre is compromised, it can cause vibration, poor handling and, in the worst case, sudden tyre failure – particularly at higher speeds.

If you notice bulges, an unusual shape, vibration through the steering wheel or anything that just doesn’t feel right, don’t ignore it.

Book into LG Local Garage and we’ll happily take a look. A quick tyre check could spot something much more serious before it becomes dangerous.

Give Steve a call or book online to secure your slot. We look forward to seeing you! 🚗💙

🛠️ Here’s a quick brake check you can do at home…

Did you know you can get a rough idea of the condition of your brake discs without taking your wheels off?

Grab a pen and, through the wheel, carefully run it from the inside of the brake disc out towards the outer edge. ✍️

If the pen catches on the edge of the disc, that’s a good indication your disc has developed a noticeable lip through wear. While it doesn’t automatically mean it needs replacing, it’s definitely worth having it checked by a professional.

As for your brake pads, we generally recommend replacing them when they’re down to around 3mm or less. Waiting longer can affect braking performance and may mean replacing your discs sooner too.

Pete’s been fitting a fresh set of discs and pads in the workshop today, keeping another customer safely on the road. 🚗🔧

If you’re not sure what condition your brakes are in, get booked in for a health check https://local-garage.com

The workshop has been flat out all week, with every ramp full and the team working hard to keep everyone safely on the road.

We just wanted to say a huge thank you to all of our customers for keeping us so busy. Whether you’ve been in for an MOT, service, repairs or just some advice, we genuinely appreciate every single one of you choosing LG Local Garage.

If your car is due an MOT or service, or there’s something that just doesn’t feel quite right, it’s worth getting booked in sooner rather than later as the diary is filling up fast.

Thanks again for all your support, it really does mean a lot to our little local team. ❤️🚗

This video shows a split CV boot. It might not look like much, but it’s one of those little faults that can turn into a much bigger (and more expensive!) repair if it’s left unnoticed.

The rubber boot’s job is to keep grease in and dirt and water out. Once it splits, the grease escapes and grit gets inside, wearing out the CV joint. Before long, you could start hearing clicking noises when turning, and eventually the joint can fail completely.

The good news? Catching it early often means replacing the boot rather than the whole CV joint – saving you a lot of money.

That’s why it’s always worth having your car checked regularly, especially if you’ve noticed any unusual noises or it’s due an MOT or service.

📞 If something doesn’t sound or feel quite right, give Steve and the team a call. We’d much rather catch a small problem before it becomes a big one!

With temperatures staying high, your engine is working that bit harder to keep itself cool. That’s why it’s really important to keep an eye on your vehicle’s fluid levels, especially your engine oil and coolant.

Check your levels when the engine is completely cold as this gives you the most accurate reading and helps avoid any nasty surprises.

A quick 2-minute check now could save you from an expensive breakdown later.

If you’re not sure what to look for, or you’d rather we give your car a quick once-over, pop in and see us for a Summer check. We’re always happy to help keep you safely on the road this summer.

📞 Give Steve a call to book in if you’d like us to check everything over.

Sunday evening usually means one thing… getting ready for the week ahead.

If you’ve suddenly remembered your MOT is due, your service is coming up, or you’ve been meaning to get that little ni**le looked at, now’s the perfect time to get it booked in.

The workshop has been busy looking after everything from a classic Mini to an MX-5 and a Kia this week – and we’ll be doing it all again tomorrow.

If your car needs some attention, don’t leave it until it’s urgent.

📞 Give Steve a call tomorrow or book online today, and we’ll get you sorted for the week ahead.

Meet the newest member of the LG Local Garage team… Steven Seagull!

For some reason, this little chap has decided that LG is the place to be and has been hanging around the garage keeping a close eye on what we’re up to.

We’ve named him Steven Seagull (it had to be done! 😅), and we’re starting to wonder if he’s planning on sticking around as our official workshop mascot.

He’s not much use with an MOT yet, and we haven’t quite trusted him with the spanners… but he does seem very interested in everyone’s lunch!

Do you think Steven should make it official and become the LG mascot? Let us know below! ⬇️
