Summer and Winter Checks

Technician at Shurlock Row conducts a seasonal check, looking beneath the car's bonnet

Keep your car performing at its best all year round with our dedicated summer and winter vehicle checks. At Shurlock Row, we tailor each inspection to the demands of the season. Each inspection is tailored to the conditions most likely to affect drivers in our local area.

Summer checks focus on cooling systems, air‑conditioning performance, tyre wear, and fluid levels. Winter checks prepare your vehicle for cold, wet, and icy conditions. We assess battery strength, antifreeze protection, tyre grip, wiper performance, and heating systems.

Common Problems

Hot weather often exposes underlying issues, such as:

  • Weak batteries
  • Perished belts
  • Overheating engines

During the winter, we often find:

  • Pothole damage
  • Frozen washers
  • Low‑pressure tyres
  • Electrical faults caused by damp

Whatever the season, our technicians make sure your vehicle is ready for the roads around Berkshire, giving you confidence in all weather.
