Dagenham is famous in the motoring industry for the Ford sewing machinists' strike of 1968, which triggered the passing of the Equal Pay Act. Ford's automotive factory opened in the town in 1931 and produced almost eleven million cars before vehicle assembly ceased in 2002. Dagenham is just outside London's extended Ultra Low Emission Zone, which became eighteen times larger in 2021. The town is connected to London Underground services by three stations: Dagenham Heathway, Dagenham East and Becontree.
Urban driving in Dagenham may reduce fuel efficiency due to increased braking and accelerating, which also places greater strain on your engine. Slow-moving traffic reduces the airflow through your car's radiator, making the cooling system work harder, so you should check the coolant level regularly and top up as needed. Your brakes and suspension will also likely wear down quickly as you navigate busy roads with potholes. Since driving in Dagenham can be tough on your car, following a regular servicing schedule is even more important.
Dagenham is in London's Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) and Low Emission Zone (LEZ), both of which are designed to reduce air pollution in the city. The ULEZ operates 24 hours a day, every day except Christmas Day, and excludes the M25 motorway. It charges drivers of cars, vans, motorcycles and specialist vehicles that don't meet the emissions standards £12.50 a day. The LEZ also covers most of Greater London and specifically targets drivers of the most polluting diesel vehicles. It is enforced year-round, and the amount you pay varies. It usually ranges from £100-300 depending on your vehicle, and you can pay online. This guide explains everything you need to know about ULEZ and LEZ.
A car axle is a shaft connected to the wheels that supports the vehicle's weight. It may either be fixed to the car, allowing the wheels to rotate around the axle, or fixed to the wheels, rotating with them.
Several things could cause damage to your car's axle, including loading it above its weight-bearing capacity, hitting potholes or curbs too hard, poor maintenance and being involved in a collision. When damage occurs, you'll have to book a car axle repair because the safety of your vehicle has been compromised.
The most common symptoms of a damaged or broken axle are malfunctioning brakes, inability to accelerate, a loud clunking noise, grease leaking from under the vehicle and tyre misalignment.
Wondering if there is a car axle repair shop near you? The answer is almost always yes; most mechanics offer this type of repair.
