Brakes
Your Vehicles brake effciency is tested by computer on a computerized brake testing
machine, this is to record the brake force generated while operating the foot and
hand brake. The results are compared to the manufacturers specifications.
If the measurements are not correct or the readings are imbalanced your vehicle
would fail its MOT.
If your brakes are not maintained correctly and on a regular basis, the effects
of a sudden brake failure in the event of an accident could be shattering. Not only
would you be putting your own life and others at risk but not maintaining an effective
braking system could result in prosecution.
Most manufacturers recommend that brake fluid is changed every two years.
Black Diamond offers a vehicle brake safety check and inspection for £12. The inspection
includes:-
- Full digital brake measurement and efficiency with computerized print out
- Visual inspection and recorded measurement of wear on vehicle brake pads and discs
- Brake fluid ph check with computer read out
- Brake fluid level check and top ups
We will always give you a full written report of our inspection showing the current
condition of your braking system. If any parts are required these will be noted
along with a quotation of work that need to be carried out.
Suspension and Steering
Out of sight out of mind. Most motorists simply do not think about their shock absorbers,
particulary if they drive a late model vehicle fitted with safety systems such as
ABS and Airbags.
Just like tyres and brakes, shock absorbers gradually wear out and become less effective.
A regular shock absorber check can be a lifesaver. Drivers should be aware of the
danger that worn shock absorbers represent.
With our computerized suspension test equipment and tracktest computer we can give
our customers an immediate FREE COMPUTER PRINTOUT on the condition of both suspension
and wheel tracking.
Black Diamond supplies and fits shock absorbers and steering parts from the worlds
leading manufacturers.
