- You feel pulsations through the brake pedal

- You hear a squeaking / squealing / grinding noise when you brake
- Your brake pedal goes to the floor or feels spongy before the brakes are activated
Checking the coolant level
After you have allowed your vehicle’s engine to cool down, locate the coolant reservoir.
The level of coolant should be between the ‘low’ and ‘high’ markings outside the reservoir.
Checking the battery terminals
The level of coolant should be between the ‘low’ and ‘high’ markings outside the reservoir.
Checking the tyres
Incorrect type of pressure will affect the fuel consumption, car handling and ride comfort.
After locating the tread wear indicator of your tyres, examine the level. If it is low, your tyres will need replacing.
Is your vehicle burning too much fuel?
Checking the windscreen
Small cracks in the windscreen can be extremely dangerous. To avoid further damage, have your windscreen replaced or cracks repaired.
To avoid your vision being affected during rainy weather, ensure that your vehicle’s wipers are in good working order. Regular wiper blade replacement is recommended.
