Sidcup is in London's Low Emission Zone. Its High Street is situated on the A211, which connects the two main roads in the district: Main Road and Station Road. The A2 passes to the northeast and provides a link to the M2 motorway, and the A20 follows Sidcup's southwest border. While your car is in the garage, you can easily travel around Sidcup and the surrounding areas by train (the railway station is on the Dartford Loop Line) or bus.
Urban driving in Sidcup 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 Sidcup can be tough on your car, following a regular servicing schedule is even more important.
Sidcup 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.
The cambelt is responsible for synchronising the rotation of the camshaft and crankshaft. Hence, it is also called the timing belt. Often, drivers book a cambelt and water pump change together to save time and money.
FixMyCar has an excellent network of cambelt specialists who will advise you on the best course of action.
Three common signs your cambelt needs replacing are a squealing noise when you start the engine, problems getting your car to start, and a glazed or glossy look to the belt. Although a snapped cambelt is uncommon, tension issues are not. A loose cambelt will whip around the engine, causing knock-on effects, while a tight belt usually causes a whining sound and puts pressure on the bearings of the cogs it is fitted to.
Whether you went to book a regular timing belt replacement or a mobile timing belt replacement, you're in the right place.
