Frequently Asked Questions

  • What are the signs that my car needs mechanical repairs?

    There are many warning signs that your car may need attention from a mechanic. These can include unusual noises (knocking, ticking, grinding), visible fluid leaks, a drop in performance, stalling, warning lights on your dashboard or changes in how your vehicle drives—like pulling to one side or sluggish acceleration. If you notice any of these signs, it’s best to get your vehicle checked sooner rather than later. Small issues can turn into much more expensive problems if left untreated.

  • How often should I get my car serviced to avoid mechanical issues?

    As a general rule, most cars should be serviced every 10,000 to 15,000 kilometres or at least once a year—whichever comes first. However, this can vary depending on your vehicle make and model, how often you drive and under what conditions (e.g., towing, short trips, dusty roads). Regular servicing helps catch mechanical issues early, keeps your warranty intact (if applicable) and ensures your car stays reliable and safe. Always follow the servicing schedule outlined in your vehicle’s logbook.

  • Can I drive my car with an engine warning light on?

    Driving with a warning light on—especially the engine light—is not recommended. While some lights indicate minor issues, others can signal serious problems like engine misfires, overheating or low oil pressure. Ignoring these can lead to costly engine damage or even a breakdown. If the light is flashing or your car is behaving differently (e.g., shaking, losing power), it’s best to stop and get it checked as soon as possible.
