A vehicles air conditioning system needs regular servicing to ensure it works efficiently and effectively. A properly maintained air conditioning system not only provides comfort during the hot months but it can be used to demist a vehicles windscreen during the colder months. Systems that are not recharged regularly will become less efficient and cause the vehicles engine to use more fuel, dramatically reducing efficiency. M-Tech provides a complete air conditioning recharge service and recommends this is carried out at two yearly intervals. We can combine this with your scheduled vehicle service at your request or you can book separately.

A modern car battery may start an engine but still be faulty especially if its more than five years old so it’s essential to have it tested. With the new AGM Absorbent Glass Mat battery, which are fitted to newer ‘start stop’ vehicles it is vital to replace them with the correct part and procedure. Call in and see us if you are unsure about your battery performance.

It is important that your vehicles tyres are maintained at all times and the correct tyres are fitted for your safety and comfort. Good quality tyres can transform the driving quality of a car. The law states that the legal limit for minimum depth of the tread on vehicle tyres is 1.6 millimetres across the central ¾ of the tread around the complete circumference of the tyre. Unsure if your tyres are legal ? Try the 20p test. Simply place a 20p coin into the main tread grooves of your tyre. If the outer band of the 20p coin is obscured when it is inserted, then your tread is above the legal limit. If not then it is below the legal limit. We are able to provide our customers with branded new tyres at competitive prices. We are happy to check your tyres for you so, to be sure you are safe, call in and see us.
