Chosen as a “Top App” by The Sunday Times for Second Year!

The Good Garage Scheme is proud to announce it has been included on The Sunday Times App List – a list of the Top 500 apps in the world – for a second year running. The prestigious list, as chosen by a team of expert reviewers was published last weekend The Sunday Times as the first part of their definitive App List.

With so many apps on the market to choose from, the list offers welcome guidance on those that entertain, organise your social life and save money. With different Top App categories and expert reviews, the guide is a must have for anyone who wants to get the most out of the latest in consumer technology.

The Good Garage Scheme’s free app is listed in the “Cars” category of The Sunday Times’ guide and advises that motorists can save money with the app by visiting one of the independent garages on the scheme instead of a main dealer without affecting a warranty.

In the past two days alone, almost 1000 motorists have downloaded the Good Garage Scheme app, available for both iPhone and Android phones, and it was ranked 31st in the UK in the Travel category of apps last weekend.

Car Servicing Nationwide - What you should expect.

Car Service - What you should expect ?

When organising a car service, it's important that you establish what the service includes.

Some garages will change only your oil filter, others will carry out a full service. A good garage will follow a service checklist and give you a copy of that completed checklist as confirmation of a job well done. Good Garage Scheme members carry out your service incorporating the Industry Standard Service Checklist.

Does your car need a service?

Most modern cars only need a service once a year, but older cars require a service once every six months. The manufacturer's service handbook will set what is best for your car. The type of service you need will also be affected by how you use your car. For example, lots of short journeys where the engine does not have a chance to warm up properly will probably mean more frequent oil and filter changes.

Running faults and repairs

Ask to speak to a mechanic or technician about the problem. Explain the problem in as much detail as you can. If you can, include when the problem occurs, for example only when engine is cold, or after the vehicle has been left standing.

Collecting your car

Ask to view the old replaced parts and check that

• The bill is for the amount agreed, or is not significantly more than any estimate you were given.

• The work and parts are fully itemised (this will be proof of purchase if a problem occurs as a result of the work or replaced part fails)

• The service record book has been stamped with the garage stamp

Rather than replacing parts that are not fully worn out, a good garage will advise you when they will probably need replacing, based on the way you use your car.
