Bristol has strong connections to the car industry thanks to the iconic British brand Bristol Cars. This manufacturer made vehicles for the rich and famous and rose to prominence after the Second World War. In 2021, an entrepreneur announced plans to revive the brand, to the delight of many fans. Unfortunately, a 2022 study of 25 major cities named Bristol the worst place to drive in Britain based on congestion, air quality, road condition, active bus routes and several other factors.
A Clean Air Zone (CAZ) operates in Bristol to improve air quality and specifically reduce public exposure to nitrogen dioxide, a pollutant produced by traditional combustion engines. This goal is achieved by encouraging the use of cleaner vehicles, such as EVs, and restricting high-pollution vehicles. Many CAZs charge drivers for entering them, though some are non-charging. Before driving in Bristol, it's worth checking online whether you will have to pay for driving through the zone.
Driving in cities like Bristol 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 Bristol for all these crucial components.
A typical car engine has around 200 parts, all of which must be maintained and replaced if they stop functioning correctly. As such, car engine repair is a broad term that covers a wide range of problems.
Signs of potential engine issues include loss of power, illumination of the check engine light, a knocking noise, excessive or discoloured exhaust smoke, overheating and frequent stalling. If an engine fault repair is needed, a mechanic will often conduct a diagnostic test first to determine which component is to blame.
You may be able to diagnose some problems yourself using this guide.
An engine oil leak repair is one of the most common jobs done by mechanics; other repairs might involve the engine management light or engine cooling system. Booking a car engine service from time to time is the best way to prevent problems from developing. Not only does it extend the life of components, it often saves you money in the long term, too.
