Sunderland is just 14 miles from Newcastle, roughly a 30-minute drive. In the late 20th century, the city became an automotive building centre, and there is still a highly successful manufacturing plant owned by Nissan, which has produced over 10.5 million vehicles. The busiest road in the Sunderland area is the A19, a dual-carriageway that runs north to south, providing access to the Tyne Tunnel. Most bus services in the area are run by Go North East, Stagecoach and Arriva.

Driving in cities like Sunderland 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 Sunderland for all these crucial components.

Since Sunderland 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 Sunderland.

Car electric window systems usually have a control switch connected by two circuits to a motor in each door, wired to the battery and the car's electrical system. One circuit and switch position moves the windows up; the other moves them down.

Several components can break or malfunction: the motor, fuse, window regulator, switch or cable pulley could be to blame. If any of these stops working, you'll need to book a car electric window repair.

Who can fix electric car windows? Many mechanics can do this type of repair, though if you want a specialist, it's best to find an auto electrician, especially if you suspect the problem is related to the wiring.

If you're wondering whether you'll need an electric window replacement or repair, most of the time, it's a single component that needs replacing to fix the problem rather than the whole unit.
