"If you hear a grinding noise from the brakes, don't drive on it. You're probably metal-on-metal, which damages the discs and turns a £80 pad job into a £300 disc-and-pad job." — Owen, Senior Mechanic
The best way to avoid big repair bills is to keep up with your servicing and don't ignore warning signs. A noise, a vibration, or a warning light is your car telling you something — the longer you leave it, the more expensive it usually gets. If in doubt, get it checked.
Drivers in London Colney, Harpenden, Redbourn, Park Street and Wheathampstead and across Hertfordshire need access to honest, skilled mechanics. Look for a garage with proper diagnostic equipment, fair pricing, and a reputation for doing the job right first time.
