Cars & Light Commercials
Full Vehicle Servicing
James Wilson Garage services can provide on request a print out of the cost and what is required to keep your vehicle operating in the way it was manufactured to do so & keep you not only roadworthy but more importantly safe.
Many people think that they are saving money by only checking their car once a year when it comes round to MOT/PSV time. Unfortunately this is not the case, by driving your vehicle with components badly worn you risk causing further damage, breaking or damaging more components therefore costing more money to put right.
Warranty Servicing
Under EU Block Exemption legislation which has been around for many years now, a manufacturer cannot force a buyer to have their car serviced by their official dealership network, and cannot refuse to honour a new car warranty simply because a car has been serviced elsewhere. However, a manufacturer does have the right to set a servicing schedule which must be adhered to.
As a car owner, you have the right to take your car to any licenced garage or mechanic for servicing, but you must ensure that the servicing is carried out exactly as per the manufacturer’s servicing schedule. This means servicing must be undertaken on time and must use any genuine parts or lubricants specified by the manufacturer.
MOT/PSV Inspections & Preparations
- Booking your car in to the test centre which can be done up to six weeks in advance of your certificate expiring.
- Giving your vehicle a mot/psv check.
- Carrying out the work needed to have your vehicle pass the rigorous test.
- Washing the vehicle before hand as required by the test centre.
- Taking your vehicle to the test centre to get it passed.
4 Wheel Alignment
Over time as the car and its components have evolved, so has the way cars steering and suspension set up or geometry is measured.
The modern car is built for comfort, performance and handling. In order to achieve and maintain the best ride possible, the steering and suspension needs to be measured and adjusted within the motor manufacturer’s specifications. This can only be done by measuring all four wheels and having a proper full four wheel alignment measurement.
If only the fronts are set straight, through having a Tracking, two wheel alignment, or Toe & Go, and the rear wheels remain out of alignment (and not adjusted), your car could still suffer tyre wear, pulling and crooked steering wheel.

Air Conditioning
- An estimated 10% of Air-Con gas permeates from the system every year.
- Air-Con systems need recharging with gas & lubricant every 2 years.
You may not be aware that over 10% of air-con gas permeates from the air-con system every year, which means that it may not work as well as it should. This is why car manufacturers recommend your Air-Con system is recharged with gas and lubricant every 2 years. This service is not part of routine vehicle servicing, so if your vehicle is more than 2 years old it’s probably due a recharge.
Air-Con systems not fully recharged will be less effective and have to work harder putting more strain on the engine and using more fuel. If your Air-Con system has not been recharged in 2 years it will dramatically reduce efficiency.
During the hotter summer months motorists use the Air-Con system more; however your system is also useful in winter. Air-Con systems create dry warm air rather than the normal humid air from outside and this de-mists your car windscreen more quickly.
To keep your Air-Con system fully charged all year, why not call in to JW Garage Services and have your vehicle’s air conditioning system recharged with gas and lubricant today.

- Wet Grip – How quickly can the tyre stop in wet conditions? – Safety
- Exterior Noise – How noisy is the tyre? – Sound
You should also consider having 2 or 4 wheel alignment carried out once you have your new tyres fitted as this will prevent unusual wear on your tyre such as premature wear on the inside or outside shoulder, which could be caused by an incorrect camber setting.
