Reviews
We have used AVS for many years to look after all the cars in our family. We have always found Ben and the team's work to be high quality, customer service to be excellent and always good value for money. We even continued using AVS when we moved out of the area as we couldn't find any other place that could match AVS. Thank you Ben and team !
Paul

Gavin

Jim
Excellent service at AVS as always. Staff are polite, helpful, and don't rip you off telling you you need parts when you don't. A couple of examples are an inter-cooler pipe on my car came off could of charged for a new one but, put back on and replaced a clip, and mirrors broke, and motor kept running, instead of buying complete dealer only available mirrors, just brought the parts needed keeping cost down.

Warning lights and diagnostics

Car dashboard warning lights use a traffic-light system to indicate urgency: red means stop immediately due to severe danger or damage, yellow/amber indicates a fault requiring prompt, non-urgent service, and green/blue/white signifies active systems. Diagnostics tools can read specific fault codes to pinpoint issues, with flashing lights (like the check engine light) indicating serious, immediate issues. 

Key Dashboard Warning Lights & Meanings

  • Engine Management Light: Issues with emissions or engine performance.
  • Oil Pressure Warning Light: Oil pressure is dangerously low.
  • Battery Warning Light: Indicates a failure in the charging system.
  • ABS/Traction Control Light: A fault in the Anti-lock Braking System, potentially compromising braking stability.
  • Tyre Pressure Monitoring System: One or more tyres have low pressure.
  • Airbag/Seatbelt Fault: Airbag system is malfunctioning and may not activate in a crash. 

Understanding Diagnostic Lights

  1. Red Lights: Require immediate action. Stop the vehicle safely.
  2. Yellow/Orange Lights: Signal a system fault or needed maintenance. Schedule a, check-up soon.
  3. Flashing Lights: Indicate a critical, active fault, such as a major engine misfire. 

Service history importance

A full service history is critical for maintaining a car’s value, safety, and reliability, often boosting resale value by up to 20% and ensuring essential maintenance. It acts as a documented record of upkeep, increasing buyer confidence, protecting manufacturer warranties, and preventing costly future repairs. 

Key aspects of service history importance:

  • Resale Value and Sales: A comprehensive service history makes a car significantly easier to sell and can increase its value, as 45% of buyers might avoid a vehicle without one.
  • Safety and Reliability: Regular servicing (ideally every 12 months or 12,000 miles) keeps components in top condition, reducing the likelihood of mechanical failures.
  • Warranty Protection: Maintaining a service record ensures that any remaining manufacturer warranty remains valid.
  • Evidence of Care: It confirms that the car has been maintained, helping to verify true mileage and ensuring that wear-and-tear items have been replaced.
  • Documented Proof: It provides an itemized record (via stamps or receipts) of work done, which is vital for identifying hidden issues.
  • Digital Records: Modern vehicles use Digital Service Records for secure, easily accessible, and accurate maintenance tracking. 

Missing or partial history can be used to negotiate a lower price when buying.

Behind the wheel in Sittingbourne

Do new cars still need servicing?

Yes, new cars absolutely still need regular servicing, typically every 12 months or 12,000 miles, to maintain performance, safety, and validity of the manufacturer’s warranty. While they don't need an MOT until 3 years old in the UK, yearly servicing ensures fluid levels, filters, and safety systems are optimal. 
 

What is a fuel filter?

A fuel filter is a crucial vehicle component that screens out contaminants like dirt, rust, and debris from gasoline or diesel before it reaches the engine. It protects sensitive engine parts to ensure clean fuel flow, preventing reduced performance, stalling, or costly damage. 
 

Is the steering system inspected?

Yes, the steering system is generally inspected during routine vehicle services, particularly in annual, major, or comprehensive services. Technicians check for wear in components like steering racks, tie rods, and ball joints. They also examine power steering fluid levels and check for leaks in hoses & pumps to ensure safe handling. This helps prevent costly repairs.
