Optional and Recommended Service OperationsMany items are recommended by manufacturers in addition to standard service checks and replacement operations. These are services that, whilst not deemed absolutely necessary, are best recommend to customers to maintain the continued operation of the vehicle. In these circumstances manufacturers recommend interval periods whilst leaving it to customer choice to undertake these items. At Advanced Motorcare because we understand the manufacturers advice, budget constraints and the potential for customers to see optional items as not essential, we will always provide you with the option and best advise on these additional items when required. Similary we do not advise these items are replaced or serviced unnecessarily. Timing BeltDepending on your vehicle model and age a replacement timing belt could be required. These vary in replacement intivals from 36,000 miles to 100,000 miles, varying by vehicle and manufacturer. The timing belt is essential to maintain the operation of the vehicle's engine. During your service we will advise you that a replacement timing belt is required and the cost for undertaking this. We would always advise that if the manufacturers guidance is to change the timing belt this is completed as the cost of not undertaking this and subsequent problems can be excessive. When selling some vehicles many purchasers and professional vehicle condition assessments will advise whether a timing belt was changed or not and this can effect the resale value. Cost for a time belt change vary. However start around £75.00.

Most manufacturers recommend that air conditioning systems are flushed and re-charged every 2 years.
