Dundee is the fourth-largest city in Scotland. The A90 connects it to the M90 motorway, providing links to Aberdeen in the north and Perth in the west. It has an excellent transport network, with buses operated by Xplore Dundee and Stagecoach. According to research conducted in 2022, Dundee sees a high number of road accidents, making it the most dangerous place to drive in Scotland. Roughly half a billion vehicle miles are travelled on its roads each year.
A Low Emission Zone (LEZ) is in operation in Dundee. It was introduced in 2008 and covers most of Greater London, including some sections of the M1 and M4 but excluding the M25. The purpose of the LEZ is to discourage the most polluting diesel vehicles from driving in London. Unlike the ULEZ, which doesn't operate on Christmas Day, this zone is enforced all year round. How much you pay depends on your vehicle - it can be between £100-300. Find out more in this guide.
Driving in cities like Dundee 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 Dundee for all these crucial components.
Since Dundee 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 Dundee.
In the late ‘90s, some car manufacturers started adding a specialised microchip to car keys to give their vehicles an extra level of security. If the vehicle doesn't detect the chip, it won't start. But what happens if you lose your keys? Who can programme car keys?
You need to find an emergency car locksmith who offers a car key programming service. This process involves reprogramming a blank chip to match your vehicle's current settings and putting it into a new key fob.
Most locksmiths offer mobile car key programming since you probably can't come to them without a working set of keys. Instead, they bring all the tools and equipment to you.
Do all car keys need to be programmed? This question is common among drivers; the answer is that almost all modern car keys contain a transponder chip and therefore have to be programmed.
