FAQs

When the check engine light comes on, it means your car’s diagnostic system has detected an issue. Common causes include a loose gas cap, faulty oxygen sensor, spark plug problems, or issues with the catalytic converter. While some problems are minor, like a loose gas cap, others can be more serious and should be checked by a mechanic. If the light is flashing, it indicates a severe issue, and you should seek immediate assistance.

Fluid leaks can be caused by various issues, depending on the color and location of the leak. Common leaks include engine oil (brown or black), coolant (green or orange), transmission fluid (red), or brake fluid (clear or yellow). Leaks may result from worn seals, damaged hoses, or loose connections. It’s best to have a mechanic inspect the leak to identify the source and prevent potential damage to your vehicle.

It’s also important to follow the manufacturer’s recommendations and keep an eye on any warning lights or unusual performance issues that may indicate the need for earlier maintenance. Regular servicing helps ensure that key components like the diesel particulate filter (DPF), fuel injectors, and turbocharger remain in good condition.

Signs that your car might need a new transmission include difficulty shifting gears, slipping gears, strange noises (like grinding or whining), leaking transmission fluid, or a burning smell. If your car isn’t responding properly when accelerating or you notice any of these symptoms, it’s a good idea to have a mechanic check it out before further damage occurs.

Uneven tire wear can be caused by misaligned wheels, improper tire inflation, worn suspension components, or unbalanced tires. Regular tire rotations, maintaining proper tire pressure, and ensuring your suspension and alignment are in good condition can help prevent uneven wear. It’s best to have a mechanic inspect the tires to identify the underlying cause.

Yes, many mechanics can fix minor panel damage, but major panel repairs, like dent removal, scratches, or significant bodywork, are typically handled by auto body shops or panel beaters who specialise in these kinds of repairs. Some general mechanics may offer basic cosmetic fixes, but for extensive panel damage, it’s best to visit a specialist with the proper tools and expertise to restore your car’s appearance and structure.

In terms of overall environmental impact, both fuel types have their downsides. However, diesel cars are often considered worse for urban air pollution, while petrol vehicles contribute more to long-term climate change. For a more eco-friendly option, you might consider hybrid or electric vehicles, which offer significantly lower emissions.
