Hybrid & Electric Servicing
Whether you’re the proud owner of a Toyota Prius, BMW i3 or a Honda Civic hybrid, our technicians are experienced with all makes and models.
Which hybrid service do I need?
If you’re not sure which service your vehicle is due, we’ll advise you based on your mileage and when you last had a service done.
We recommend you book a Full Hybrid Service once every year to keep your hybrid vehicle safe and running smoothly.
Regular services and maintenance for your hybrid or electric vehicle can help maximise its performance and aid longevity. Plus, frequent hybrid or electric car services and checks can help identify and resolve faults before they become major issues.
Why choose us?
We know how important it is to help you stay safe on the road, especially as hybrid and electric vehicles are increasing in popularity. This is why our technicians are hybrid and electric vehicle trained who can provide the various services for electric or hybrid cars:
Hybrid car servicing is an in-depth, routine check of your vehicle’s health. It is designed to help keep your car efficient and roadworthy
Most hybrid and electric car services are identical to services for petrol and diesel vehicles, such as tyre fitting, wheel alignment and air conditioning maintenance. However, the following services have some slight differences.
Oil & Filter Changes
This service is only available for hybrid cars as electric vehicles don’t need oil to run. Changing your oil regularly is just as important in an hybrid vehicle as it is in petrol and diesel vehicle and should be changed at least once a year.
Brakes
These vehicles have the same braking system as a regular car and still require the same maintenance including regular checks and replacements. Some electric vehicles use electric motors to slow the vehicle down whilst braking which means your brake pads will last longer, however, brakes should still be checked over during a regular service.
Suspension
Servicing the suspension on electric and hybrid cars is very similar to standard suspension checks and repair. However, only specially trained technicians can carry out work close to the HV cables that are found within the wheel arches of hybrids and EVs.
Tyres
Some hybrid and electric vehicles (i.e Tesla) are fitted with tyres filled with foam to reduce road noise. These vehicles do require regular checks on the tyres to ensure the safety of the vehicle.
Wcarey provide speciliast hybrid and EV tyre inspection services on site and are here to provide the best advice.
