Air Conditioning Service & Re-gas FAQs
The most common cause is low refrigerant, but poor cooling can also be caused by leaks, faulty components or worn seals. We’ll inspect your air conditioning system before recommending the most appropriate solution.
Most manufacturers recommend servicing or re-gassing your air conditioning every two years. Regular servicing helps maintain performance, keeps the system lubricated and can reduce the risk of expensive repairs.
Yes. Refrigerant also carries lubricating oil around the system. Running with low refrigerant for long periods can place additional strain on components such as the compressor.
Don’t worry if you’re unsure. We’ll identify whether your vehicle requires R134a or R1234yf refrigerant before carrying out any work.
Yes. Running your air conditioning for a short period every couple of weeks helps keep seals lubricated, reduces moisture build-up and helps prevent the system from deteriorating.
Definitely. Air conditioning removes moisture from the air inside your vehicle, helping to demist windows much faster during colder or wetter weather.
Unpleasant smells are often caused by bacteria, mould or moisture building up within the system. Regular servicing can help keep your air conditioning clean and fresh.
Yes. We’ll carry out the appropriate checks before completing an air conditioning re-gas to ensure the system is suitable for servicing, however we do not carry out any diagnostics so some problems may not be apparent.
Not always. If there’s a leak or faulty component, additional repairs may be required. We’ll explain our findings clearly before carrying out any extra work.
A correctly functioning air conditioning system should typically remain effective for several years. Gradual refrigerant loss is normal over time, which is why periodic servicing is recommended.

Wheel Alignment FAQs
We recommend checking your wheel alignment every 12 months, whenever you fit new tyres, or if you’ve hit a pothole or kerb. Regular checks can help maximise tyre life and improve vehicle handling.
Yes. Even a single impact with a pothole or kerb can affect your vehicle’s alignment, causing uneven tyre wear and affecting how your vehicle drives.
It can. Correctly aligned wheels reduce rolling resistance, allowing your tyres to roll more efficiently, which may help improve fuel economy.
Correct wheel alignment helps tyres wear more evenly, often extending their lifespan and reducing the likelihood of premature replacement.
We’ll place your vehicle on our professional alignment equipment, measure all relevant wheel angles and compare them against the manufacturer’s specifications. If no adjustment is needed, you’ll have complete peace of mind. If alignment is required and you choose to have it completed with us, we’ll deduct the £30 check fee from the cost of the alignment.
An off-centre steering wheel is one of the most common signs that your wheel alignment may need checking, particularly if the vehicle also pulls slightly to one side.
Yes. Checking alignment when fitting new tyres helps protect your investment by reducing uneven wear from the very beginning.
Wheel alignment itself doesn’t usually damage suspension components, but worn or damaged suspension parts can affect alignment. During our inspection we’ll advise if we notice anything that may require further attention.
Many customers notice straighter steering, improved handling and a more stable driving experience, particularly if the alignment was significantly out.
A wheel alignment check normally takes around 20 to 30 minutes. If adjustments are required, we’ll explain how long the work is likely to take before we begin.
Not necessarily. Some vehicles only require front wheel adjustment, while others benefit from a full four-wheel alignment. We’ll recommend the correct service for your vehicle.
Yes. We’ll explain the results of your alignment check and, where applicable, provide before-and-after measurements so you can clearly see the improvements made.
Other Tyre Services FAQs
Yes. Where it’s safe and meets British Standard guidelines, we can professionally repair punctured tyres rather than replacing them unnecessarily.
Wheel balancing ensures the weight of the wheel and tyre is evenly distributed. Correct balancing helps reduce vibration, improves comfort and can extend tyre life.

Yes. We can diagnose TPMS faults, replace sensors where required and programme compatible systems on many vehicles.
Yes. If you’ve lost your locking wheel nut key or it’s become damaged, we may be able to remove the locking wheel nuts using specialist equipment.
