Leighton Buzzard is in Bedfordshire, roughly 36 miles northwest of central London and served by the West Coast Main Line. When driving through the town, be careful on Hockliffe Road and Grovebury Road, as these areas have seen several collisions over the years. Leighton Buzzard has a mix of rural roads (known for potholes) and urban roads (known for congestion); servicing your car helps to mitigate the strain of these varied driving conditions.

Turbochargers, usually called turbos, are designed to give your car extra power. They are only activated at certain speeds and work by forcing more air into the engine, increasing the strength of the combustion. You can read more about how turbochargers work here.

Common signs of turbo failure include a loss of power, difficulty maintaining high speeds, slower acceleration, grey/blue exhaust smoke, and a dashboard warning light. If your car shows any of these symptoms, you may need to book a turbo repair.

In some cases, a repair may not be possible, in which case a turbo replacement is required. Turbo reconditioning or turbo refurbishment is a restorative process that gives older turbos a new lease of life. If you need to replace your turbo, opting for a refurbished rather than a brand-new one is usually cheaper. Consult a turbo specialist for advice about the best option for your car.
