Canning Town is in London's Ultra Low Emission Zone. It is served by the A13 road, which travels east to Shoeburyness and west to Whitechapel; the A124, which links to Upminster; and the A1011, which connects to Stratford and Silvertown, the latter being just two miles away. If you need public transport, Canning Town's bus station is on Silvertown Way, with services to destinations including East Ham and Trafalgar Square. There is a London Underground station on the same street.

Urban driving in Canning Town 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 Canning Town can be tough on your car, following a regular servicing schedule is even more important.

Canning Town 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 clutch and gearbox work together in a manual transmission to facilitate gear changes, determining the amount of power available from the engine. Unfortunately, several things can go wrong within this system, requiring an urgent repair.

Most clutches last at least 60,000 miles, though several factors, including your driving style, can impact this distance. Gearboxes typically last between 100,000 and 150,000 miles - find out how much a repair is likely to cost here.

Common signs of clutch and gearbox failure include:

• A limp, hard-to-press or sticking clutch pedal
• Grinding or clunking noises when you change gears
• Difficulty moving the gear stick
• Clutch slipping (when your car struggles to stay in gear)

Since these symptoms will only worsen with time, booking a clutch and gearbox repair sooner rather than later is best.
