Frequently Asked Questions for Brasha’s Workshop

A brake fluid flush involves draining the existing fluid (and moisture) out of the system and replacing it with new, clean fluid. 

Maintaining tyre pressure is not always a top priority on people’s to-do lists but there are several good reasons why it should be.

Scheduled servicing intervals vary from one manufacturer to another.

An induction clean removes carbon and residue from the injectors, throttle body, EGR and intake. Because today’s fuel systems work with such fine tolerances, even the smallest deposits can have a dramatic effect on engine performance.

A small repair ignored, can lead to bigger and more wide spread problems.

Filling your common rail diesel with petrol is an all too common mistake.  You can minimise any potential damage by driving as little as possible.  If you’re still at the service station stay there and don’t start the car.  Or, if you’ve already left, pull over as soon as it’s safe.  Have the car towed to your mechanic where they can flush the system and check for any apparent damage.
