What Car Maintenance Covers

Maintenance is broader than a service. It includes oil and filter changes, tyre checks and replacements, brake inspections, battery testing, fluid top-ups, and minor repairs.

Some drivers come to us whenever a warning light appears. Others book a regular annual check even when nothing seems wrong. Both approaches are sensible, we’re happy to work to whatever schedule suits your car and driving habits.

Warning Lights And What They Mean

The check engine light, the oil pressure warning, and the battery symbol are not suggestions. They mean something is wrong, and your car’s systems have detected it. Ignoring warning lights rarely makes the underlying problem go away; it usually makes it worse.

If a light comes on, call us on 01795 422040 and describe what you’re seeing. We can book you in if it warrants attention.

Seasonal Maintenance In Kent

Kent winters are mild by northern standards, but cold snaps do cause battery failures, tyre pressure drops, and coolant problems. 

Spring is a sensible time to check brakes after winter salt exposure, and summer is when air conditioning systems tend to underperform. At AVS, we offer tailored maintenance advice based on your car’s mileage and age
