🚐 Ford Transit Service Complete 🔧

Another Transit back on the road after a full service.

Just look at the state of this old cabin (pollen) filter! 🤢 Over time these filters become clogged with dust, dirt, pollen and debris, restricting airflow and affecting the air you breathe inside the van.

Replacing it means:
✅ Cleaner, fresher air in the cabin
✅ Better heater and air conditioning performance
✅ Reduced strain on the ventilation system

Regular servicing isn’t just about oil and filters under the bonnet—it’s about keeping your whole vehicle running at its best.

Another happy customer today! 🔧🚐

This customer had an MOT carried out at a well-known garage and was advised the front brakes needed replaced.

Instead of booking it into a workshop and losing half a day, they contacted Armstrong Automotive. I supplied and fitted new front brake discs and pads at their home, saving them both time and money.

The best part? The customer had just finished a night shift, so there was no need to get up early, arrange transport, or sit around in a waiting room. They could get some well-earned sleep while I completed the job outside.

✅ Mobile service at your home or workplace
✅ Quality parts fitted
✅ Honest, professional workmanship
✅ Convenient appointments that work around your schedule

2008 Audi A4 Avant 2.0 TDI – 214,000 Miles and Still Going Strong 💪

Today’s job was a service on this Audi A4 Avant showing an impressive 214,000 miles on the clock.

🔧 Engine oil and oil filter replaced
🔧 Air filter replaced
🔧 Vehicle health check carried out
🔧 Fluids checked and topped up where required

For a car with over 214k miles, regular servicing is absolutely key. The old air filter was heavily clogged compared to the new one, restricting airflow and making the engine work harder than it needs to.

Fresh oil and filters help maintain performance, improve efficiency and, most importantly, prolong engine life. This Audi is proof that with the right maintenance, high-mileage vehicles can continue to be reliable daily drivers.

Another one sorted today 👨‍🔧

2011 Ford Ka in for an OSF (offside front) lower suspension arm replacement after excessive play was found causing knocking and poor handling.

Old arm removed and replaced with a new unit, getting everything tightened correctly and back together safely ✅

These are a common wear item on the Ka and can cause:
• Knocking over bumps
• Uneven tyre wear
• Steering instability
• MOT failures

Customer back on the road with the front end feeling tight again 🚗💨

Message for repairs, servicing, diagnostics and MOT work 📩

Vehicle came in today after a well known car dealer carried out the MOT with the following advisories:

• Front brake disc worn, pitted or scored, but not seriously weakened x2
• Front brake pads wearing thin

After inspecting the vehicle properly, the front pads still had plenty of life left and the discs were in perfectly serviceable condition 👌

Just because something is listed as an advisory doesn’t always mean it needs replaced straight away. Always worth getting a second opinion before spending money unnecessarily 🔧🚗

Honest advice and only replacing parts when they genuinely need done 👍
