1.03 billion vehicle miles were travelled on Swansea roads in 2021, and it is the ninth worst city in the UK for road rage, according to a recent study. The M4 and A48 provide links with Carmarthen to the west and Port Talbot, Neath and Cardiff to the east. First Cymru operates most bus services in Swansea, and the railway station is just fifteen minutes from the bus station on foot.
Driving in cities like Swansea puts extra strain on your car due to long periods of idling and frequent stopping and starting in traffic. The parts most at risk are the brakes, cooling system and transmission. Manoeuvring into tight parking spaces and navigating busy roads can result in scuffed alloys and dented or scraped bodywork while driving over potholes can throw out your suspension. FixMyCar can help you find affordable repairs and maintenance in Swansea for all these crucial components.
Since Swansea is on the coast, cars in this area may experience a higher level of corrosion on key components, requiring them to be replaced more often. The bodywork starts to rust first; other parts most at risk include the brake callipers, nuts, and bolts. You can help to prevent this from happening by regularly washing your car, especially after a trip to the beach. Since rust spreads and eats away at metal components, it's best to get it fixed sooner rather than later. FixMyCar can help you find a bodywork specialist near Swansea.
EGR stands for exhaust gas recirculation. The EGR valve links the intake manifold and the exhaust manifold. It plays a vital role in helping to reduce the amount of NOx emitted from a car. Learn more about how it works here.
Over time, EGR valves can become clogged due to a build-up of soot, and when this happens, an EGR valve clean or replacement is required. Common symptoms of an EGR fault include rough idling, erratic engine functioning (including stalling), increased fuel consumption and higher emissions.
Some manufacturers recommend using an EGR cleaning service every 50,000 miles; doing so helps prevent performance issues and extends the component's life.
EGR valves typically have a lifespan of around ten years. After this time, it's best to book an EGR valve replacement if you experience any of the symptoms listed above. A stuck EGR valve will speed up the process of the diesel particulate filter (DPF) becoming blocked.
