to give you hints and tips on maintaining your Volvo or Toyota to help reduce breakdowns and expensive car repair bills.
The blog this week is based around maintaining your car in between your annual servicing for our Volvo or Toyota drivers.
Ensuring that you get your Volvo or Toyota serviced each year and maintaining it between services – really is money well spent. Your local
independent garage is likely to catch potential issues early on when they are cheaper to fix – saving you money in the long run. Two other great benefits
of a well maintained Volvo or Toyota is that it will last much longer
and your Volvo or Toyota will have a better resale value when you come to sell it.
A well-maintained Volvo or Toyota will also more efficient, so you’ll save money on fuel as well as the fuel consumption will be better. If you find that
you need to claim on a warranty you will normally have to show that you’ve got a complete service record. Any missed services will hamper a claim for
sure. So always make sure that you adhered to the manufacturer’s service schedule which you will find in the handbook and get your service book stamped
by your local independent garage.
Keep an eye on the cambelt
One of the things that often gets over looked or put off is the cambelt change. This is required because the cambelt is at the end of its life, putting
this off could result in very expensive consequences – a new engine! Check your Volvo or Toyota service manual to find out when your car is due to
have its cambelt /timing belt replaced. This varies from car to car, but is often needed at around 70,000 to 80,000 miles.
