The cost of a Winter Check can vary depending on your car due to differences in labour time and parts needed. Take a look below at the average quote on WhoCanFixMyCar.com for some of the top car makes.
This table uses data from quotes provided on WhoCanFixMyCar.com between 11/01/2020 and 10/04/2020.
Winter is the time of year when most accidents occur as a result of dangerous driving conditions. The adverse weather poses a constant threat to our vehicles; therefore, it is important to perform some pre winter car checks.
Garages offer winter health checks for your vehicles to provide optimum safety on the roads during these darker months. These safety checks, like that of a service but tailored towards winter, examine six main areas of the car.
In winter, tyres are more likely to slip or skid than the rest of the year. Therefore, increased contact and pressure is required to increase safety. Winter tyres may also be suggested if you often drive in remote areas or in temperatures that sit below 7 degrees Celsius.
Breaking down in the winter is normally related to the car’s cooling system. You should always have a 50/50 mix of antifreeze and water to avert the vehicle from seizing up.
The importance of working lights all year round is an essential part of road safety. In the winter, the days only get shorter and the influx of fog further threatens good visibility. It is also against the law to drive with broken lights, hence a lights assessment is an immensely important element of a winter car check.
Car battery problems are the pits, this car check certifies that your car battery is charged, secure and operating safely.
Having the right amount of oil in your vehicle eliminates the risk of engine problems. The consistency of your oil can also vary in regard to the season, for example sometimes thinner oil is needed in winter for the car to run more smoothly.
We work with a network of 14,284 mechanics and garages across the UK so we can find competitive Winter Check deals for you.
