Ladies and gentlemen: My Wife’s radiator BEFORE I fixed it! 🙈

By using an at home mechanic you can cut costs of the labour most garages pile on. I simply want to use my skills and help people WITHOUT the price tag.

I give FREE diagnostics, you then order the part yourself from a trusted source or you can ask me to order if you prefer. I then come back to you and fit it, or you to me.

Process may take a few days extra then a garage for parts to be delivered but if it can wait a few days extra, you can save yourself the extra bill.

One fixed radiator ✅
One happy wife ✅
One happy life 😅 ✅

Had a customer wanting me to come look at his Ford Fiesta St150 after it developed rough idle. I did some looking around and diagnosed it to be the Pcv/ crank breather pipe which had spilt all the way through causing the car to have no vacuum. Got a new pipe upgrade and fitted it.

🥳Problem solved
🥳Runs like a dream again
🥳One happy customer

A vehicle which has a severely damaged or broken exhaust will automatically fail an MOT due to emissions, but it can also fail if it produces too much noise – usually related to issues with the silencer.

This was the case for this broken exhaust, it was broken and noisy!

Look at the difference between them!

For one reason or another, some people ignore the signs that their brake pads or discs are failing and continue driving with them. In addition to risking brake failure, you can do some expensive damage to your vehicle that way. Here are two things that could happen if you wait too long to replace your brake pads or discs.

Cause Damage to the Rotors

Most people don't have the first idea about how their vehicles work, so it's not surprising that they may not know that the purpose of brake pads is to protect the rotor. When you apply the brakes, the brake pads press against the rotor to generate friction that slows the car down to a stop. These pads help to distribute the heat produced by this friction.

If brake pads are allowed to wear down to less than a quarter of an inch, a couple of things will happen to the rotor. First, the brake pads are attached to what are essentially metal clamps -- which will begin grinding against the rotor. This can cause the rotor to warp or break 😱

Second, the lack of brake pads means the heat from the friction won't disperse correctly, which could cause the whole braking system to overheat and fail ❌‼️‼️

Damage to Brake Calipers

If things get really bad, you can also damage the brake calipers. These are the metal plates that hold the brake pads and press them against the rotor. When the brake pads deteriorate to the point where the calipers are grinding against the rotor, the calipers can be destroyed right along with the rotor. Additionally, the pistons that push the calipers into position may pop out of place.

The cost of replacing the calipers varies depending on the type of vehicle you drive. However, you can expect to pay quite a lot in a garage (and more if you have a luxury car).

It's not worth risking your safety or others safety by waiting to replace your brake pads, and you may end up doing more damage and paying more due to your delay. To learn more about this issue or to schedule an appointment to have your brake pads or discs replaced, contact us today!! 📱📞

Luckily, this customer is driving safely on the road with brand new brakes! 🚙 🚗
