🔧 SOMETIMES IT'S NOT THE PART THAT'S THE PROBLEM!

Take a look at what Martin discovered while inspecting this Renault!

A suspension mounting bolt had been left loose following previous repair work.

It might seem like a small oversight, but suspension components need to be correctly secured. Loose fixings can cause knocking noises, unwanted movement and potentially compromise vehicle safety.

It's a reminder of why repairs should always be completed properly, including the correct tightening procedures and final checks.

At Ignition Autos and Edward Street Garage, we don't just investigate faults — we look for the reason behind them.

🔧 Alternator Charging Fault? It's Not Always the Alternator!

Here's a look behind the scenes at Ignition Autos, where we're carrying out specialist testing on a vehicle's LIN bus-controlled charging system.

Modern alternators aren't just responsible for charging the battery. They also communicate with the vehicle's engine management system to regulate charging when required.

When something goes wrong, simply replacing the alternator isn't always the answer.

Using our specialist diagnostic equipment, we can check the charging voltage, electrical signals and communication system to help identify the cause of the fault.

Proper diagnostics before replacing parts.

🔧 GOT AN RAC WARRANTY? WE CAN HELP!

Experiencing problems with your vehicle and wondering whether your RAC warranty will cover the repairs?

At Edward Street Garage in Crewe, we regularly assist customers with RAC warranty claims, helping make the process as straightforward as possible.

From initial diagnostics and fault finding through to submitting technical reports and carrying out authorised repairs, our experienced team can guide you through the process.

We use specialist diagnostic equipment to investigate faults properly, identify the underlying cause and provide RAC with the evidence needed to assess your claim.

How does it work?

Once we've diagnosed the fault, we'll submit our findings to RAC for authorisation. They'll then confirm what's covered under your individual warranty policy.

Please be aware that diagnostic fees, labour shortfalls or non-covered repairs may still be payable depending on your warranty terms.

Don't let vehicle problems become a headache. Get in touch and we'll talk you through the next steps!

DID YOU KNOW YOUR BRAKE FLUID ABSORBS MOISTURE?

Here's something many drivers don't realise!

During a recent vehicle inspection at Edward Street Garage, our technician carried out a brake fluid moisture test.

As you can see from the photograph, the tester is showing a moisture reading of approximately 2.5%, indicating that the brake fluid is beginning to deteriorate.

So why does this matter?

Over time, brake fluid absorbs moisture, which can reduce its boiling point and affect braking performance, particularly when the brakes are working hard.

Excessive moisture can also contribute to corrosion within the braking system, potentially leading to expensive repairs.

The worrying part? Your brakes might feel completely normal, even when your brake fluid is overdue for replacement!

That's why checking the condition of your brake fluid is an important part of maintaining your vehicle.

At Edward Street Garage, we don't just look at the obvious. We carry out checks to help identify potential problems before they become more serious.

🔧 NON-RUNNER? HERE'S WHAT OUR TECHNICIAN FOUND!

This vehicle arrived at Edward Street Garage as a non-runner, with the engine refusing to start.

Our technician got straight to work investigating the cause of the problem.

As you can see in the video, after removing the rocker cover and inspecting the engine's timing components, our technician discovered excessive play in the timing chain.

⚠️ Why is this a concern?

The timing chain plays a crucial role in keeping the engine's internal components correctly synchronised.

Excessive play can indicate a problem with the timing chain system and, if the engine timing becomes incorrect, can potentially result in serious internal engine damage.

This is exactly why proper diagnostics are so important!

Not every fault can be diagnosed by simply plugging in a computer. Sometimes, further mechanical investigation is needed to identify what's actually going wrong.

At Edward Street Garage, our experienced technicians carry out detailed investigations to identify faults before recommending repairs.

🔧 THIS IS AN INTERESTING ONE… AND DEFINITELY WORTH A WATCH! 👀

We've got a Range Rover Evoque undergoing some extensive engine repairs here at Edward Street Garage, and what our technician has uncovered during the strip-down is certainly worth seeing!

In this video, our technician takes you through the engine step by step, showing exactly what he's found and explaining why certain repairs are necessary.

So, what have we discovered?

🔹 Timing Chain Wear – The tensioners are significantly extended, with noticeable slack in the chain.

🔹 Failed Flywheel – Excessive movement and significant heat damage, confirming the flywheel requires replacement.

🔹 Clutch Damage – The clutch is heavily worn, with evidence of overheating, slipping and oil contamination.

🔹 Coolant Leak – Traced to the underside of the thermostat, with visible staining showing where the coolant has been escaping.

🔹 Oil Leaks – Significant oil contamination around the timing casing, with evidence of a further leak requiring investigation.

🔹 Carbon Build-Up – Heavy deposits throughout several engine components, requiring thorough cleaning as part of the repair.

This is a perfect example of why major engine repairs aren't always as straightforward as they first appear!

What makes this video particularly interesting is that our technician doesn't just tell you what's wrong. He physically shows you the components, explains how they've deteriorated and talks you through what needs to happen next.

At Edward Street Garage, we believe in carrying out thorough investigations, identifying problems properly and keeping our customers informed throughout the repair process.

🎥 If you've ever wondered what really goes on behind the scenes during a major engine repair, this one's definitely worth watching from start to finish!

🔧 WHY DO WE RECOMMEND REPLACING CERTAIN PARTS IN PAIRS?

Ever wondered why your mechanic might recommend replacing two tyres, coil springs or shock absorbers when only one needs attention?

There's actually a good reason for it, and it's not about replacing parts unnecessarily!

Many components work together to keep your vehicle safe, stable and handling correctly.

When one side fails or becomes worn, the opposite side may have experienced similar mileage, wear and stress.

So, what are the benefits of replacing certain components in pairs?

✅ Better Performance – Helps maintain balanced handling, grip and stability.

✅ Even Wear – Matching components can help prevent differences in performance between both sides of the vehicle.

✅ Improved Safety – Helps maintain consistent braking, steering and suspension performance.

✅ Better Value – Replacing both sides together can sometimes save additional labour costs if the other side needs replacing shortly afterwards.

Does this mean you always need to replace both sides?

Not necessarily!

Every vehicle is different, and replacing components in pairs isn't always essential. However, for certain parts, particularly coil springs, shock absorbers and tyres on the same axle, it can be beneficial.

At Edward Street Garage, our technicians will always assess the condition of your vehicle and explain our recommendations, allowing you to make an informed decision.
