Cars

Over the last few years, I have worked with a range of cars. I have diagnosed, fixed, and serviced cars for my friends and family. Below, I list the cars and the work I performed on each one.

2011 Hyundai I10 1.2

This is my mum's car; I offered to work on it to save money.

Full Service: oil and filter chnage, air and cabin filter change, spark plugs replaced.
Replaced the exterior bulbs and cleaned the interior light terminals to get them working.
Replaced the wheel arch cover after a shredded tyre ripped it to pieces.
Clutch cable replaced after it snapped
. Looked over the car and advised on what needs to be replaced; for example, the tyres, which were very old and dangerously worn out

charging the car battery after it had been sitting a while

Tyre worn and showing cords

2011 VW golf Mk6 1.4 tsi

Full Service: Oil and filter chnage, air and cabin filter changes, spark plugs changed.
Replacement fuel injector.
Clutch master cylinder replacement, plus bleeding the air out of the clutch.
Diagnosed a misfire on cylinder 2, which turned out to be piston ring damage from a leaky fuel injector; unfortunately, by the time I got there, the engine had lost compression.

2010 Mazda MX5 NC 2.0

This is my newest car. I have not done too much on it yet: I replaced the oil, the filter, and the plugs, as well as changing the oil, as it has hit the interval at which it has to be changed
