Safe brakes are essential for your vehicle’s safety. If you notice any of these symptoms, it could mean your brake pads or brake discs need replacing:

• Squeaking or squealing noises when you apply the brakes.
• Soft or spongy brake pedal or longer stopping distances.
• Vibrations or pulsing in the brake pedal.
• Grinding sounds, which often indicate worn-down brake pads.

If you experience any of these, it’s important to get your brakes checked immediately. At Jiomty’s Auto Centres, we offer professional brake inspections and replacement to ensure your car is safe to drive.

Your tyres are crucial for safe driving. Here are the key signs that it’s time to replace them:

• Tread depth below 1.6mm, which is the legal minimum in the UK.
• Sidewall damage, such as cracks, bulges, or cuts.
• Uneven tyre wear, which could be a sign of alignment or suspension issues.
• Vibration or pulling while driving, indicating possible uneven wear.

If any of these signs apply to your vehicle, bring it into Jiomty’s Auto Centres for a free tyre check. We’ll recommend the right tyres and ensure your car is safe on the road.

Yes, it’s a good idea to book your MOT test in advance to secure your preferred time slot. An MOT test is a legal requirement for all vehicles over 3 years old. It ensures your vehicle meets safety and environmental standards. Booking early will help you avoid last-minute delays and ensure your car remains roadworthy. You can easily schedule your MOT test online or by calling Jiomty’s Auto Centres. We’ll make sure your vehicle passes its MOT and is ready to hit the road.

The check engine light can be triggered by various issues, from simple to serious problems. Common causes include:

• Loose or damaged fuel cap, which can affect fuel pressure.
• Faulty oxygen sensors or exhaust issues.
• Worn spark plugs or ignition coils, causing engine misfires.
• Mass airflow sensor issues, leading to poor fuel efficiency.

If your check engine light is on, it’s best to have it diagnosed as soon as possible. Our team at Jiomty’s Auto Centres can perform a diagnostic check and identify the cause of the issue. We’ll help you avoid costly repairs by addressing the problem early.

The time required for car repairs varies depending on the type and complexity of the issue. Minor repairs, like brake pad replacement or oil changes, typically take a few hours. For more extensive repairs, such as engine or transmission work, it may take longer. At Jiomty’s Auto Centres, we will provide you with an estimated repair time when you book your appointment and keep you updated throughout the process. Our goal is to complete repairs efficiently and get you back on the road as soon as possible.
