Questions about engine
How do I know when my timing belt is due?
Your manufacturer sets the interval by kilometres and age. Send us your make, model, year and mileage on WhatsApp and we will check it for you.
Can I keep driving with the check engine light on?
If it is flashing, stop as soon as it is safe, because a severe misfire can damage the engine. If it is steady, book a diagnostic soon.
