Optional and Recommended Service Operations

Many 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 Belt

Depending 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.

 

Brake Fluid change.

The majority of vehicle manufacturers recommend having your vehicles brake fluid changed every two years. This is due to the fluid becoming contaminated with moisture, reducing braking efficiency of your vehicle.

Approximate cost for the brake fluid change: £45.00.

 

Air Conditioning Service and Recharge.

The air conditioning system of your car relies on a circulating gas and lubrication system for correct operation. Most manufacturers recommend that air conditioning systems are flushed and re-charged every 2 years. We will advise you if this service is required or recommended when undertaking the servicing of your car and cost of undertaking the service. Also see our Vehicle Air Conditioning Service pages for more information on this service.

Approximate cost for an Air Conditioning Service: £65.00.

 

Engine Coolant and AntiFreeze

The majority of manufacturers recommend the antifreeze for the engine cooling system is changed every 2-3 years. When changed this should always be changed with a water/anti freeze mix which acts as a lubricant and anti corrosive agent in addition to preventing the coolant freezing during cold weather conditions.

Your engine coolant fluid should never be replaced with water alone.

Approximate cost for Engine Coolant change: £55.00.
