Birmingham is the second-largest city in the UK, so you're sure to be spoilt for choice when choosing a garage. Getting around the city is easy, with eight local rail lines, trams run by West Midlands Metro and regular buses by Arriva. There is a congestion charge zone, known as the Birmingham Clean Air Zone, inside the A4540 Middleway Ring Road. You may have to pay if you enter it. Did you know Birmingham was the first city in the U.K. to have a hydrogen fill-up point for cars?
A Clean Air Zone (CAZ) operates in Birmingham 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 Birmingham, it's worth checking online whether you will have to pay for driving through the zone.
You may encounter a congestion charge in some parts of Birmingham. Congestion charges are used to reduce the number of vehicles driving in a busy area, often a city centre, by making drivers pay a daily tariff to enter them. The charging zone usually operates at certain times, and once you have paid, you can leave, drive around and re-enter it as many times as you would like within that day. You can find more information about Birmingham's congestion charge online.
Driving in cities like Birmingham 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 Birmingham for all these crucial components.
Spark plugs create an electrical spark to ignite the air and fuel mixture in petrol engines, and the energy from this process is used to power the car. Each engine cylinder has one spark plug. They typically last between 30,000 and 100,000 miles and should be replaced together to ensure consistent performance.
Signs you need to book a spark plug replacement include sluggish acceleration, rough idling, increased fuel consumption, and engine misfires.
Curious about how spark plugs differ from glow plugs? Learn the key differences in this quick guide.
Usually, getting new spark plugs fitted takes 30 minutes to an hour. If you're short on time, consider booking a mobile spark plug replacement service to get the job done at your home or office.
