Your questions answered

My MOT has a suspension advisory. Should I fix it now?

Advisories are worn parts that haven't failed yet. Fixing them before next year's MOT avoids a fail and is often cheaper, because worn parts can damage others.

Why is my car knocking over bumps?

Usually a worn drop link, bush, shock absorber or broken spring. We'll find which one on the ramp and show you.
