Did you know Manchester has fewer cars per head of population than any other city in the UK? However, it has also been named one of the most dangerous places to drive, with almost 7,000 collisions in seven years. The A6 and A56 see a particularly high number of accidents. Plans for a Clean Air Zone in Greater Manchester have been scrapped, for now, so you don't have to worry about paying charges for driving in certain areas.
Driving in cities like Manchester 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 Manchester for all these crucial components.
Cars struggle to start for many reasons, making it hard to diagnose what's wrong. A dead battery is the most common cause; if this is the case, the engine should still turn over but won't get going unless you give it a jump start or use a battery charger. This guide explains how to change a car battery.
Other possible explanations include a faulty starter motor, clogged fuel injectors, a faulty - rather than flat - battery, issues with the alternator, a flooded engine, a jammed ignition lock and engine intake problems.
If a flooded engine is why your car won't start, you might not need to book a repair. Find out how to start a car with a flooded engine here.
Fortunately, the above issues can often be diagnosed and fixed by a mobile mechanic, so towing your car to a garage is unnecessary.
