Wipers

Bosch Car Service Centre workshop only supplies products of excellence. This includes the hardworking wipers on your car. Bosch is at the cutting edge of wiper performance, and we supply only the best to secure your safety on the road – even in the most difficult of weather conditions.

Our wiper products are custom-fitted to your specific car make. For example, Bosch’s Aerotwin Retrofit blades feature a new style fastening mechanism with a “Quick-Clip” adapter to ensure that the blades hook easily into a conventional wiper arm. Bosch’s Aerotwin Plus has an advanced adapter system with a patented coating that optimises wiper performance throughout the service life of the wiper without leaving stripes on the windscreen. A softer wiper action produces low running noise, no shaking and no bending, regardless of whether the windscreen is wet or dry.

It is very important that your car’s wipers are hardwearing and robust. During your car’s service at our Bosch Car Service Centre, our mechanics will check if your wiper blades are in excellent condition and if not, we will recommend replacing them.

For wiper maintenance, remember to frequently remove loose dirt and soil from the blades by wiping them lightly with a damp paper towel; do not use your wipers to clear debris from your windscreen, as this will scratch the glass. In severe weather conditions, always try to park your vehicle undercover.

Batteries

Contemporary cars are fitted with complex technology, such as driving safety systems, and therefore require far more power than in the past. This means that your car’s battery may reach its limit sooner than you have bargained for. On average, a car battery lasts for five to seven years, after which it starts to lose capacity.

At Bosch Car Service Centre, our main mission is to ensure that you never have to experience the stress of a car breaking down on the way to your destination. Research shows that one in three breakdowns is the result of a defective starter battery and a battery should be replaced before its capacity reaches a critical state. Our technicians will test your battery’s capacity and if a replacement is needed, we will fit the suitable Bosch battery for your car.

Bosch makes robust car batteries that last a long time. Throughout their workable lifetime, the batteries will need little to no maintenance. Our workshop also provides superior batteries such as the S5 EFB and S6 AGM start/stop models from Bosch, which are more powerful than the average battery and can effectively withstand adverse weather conditions.

Lights

Seeing and being seen is a vital aspect of road safety, which is why it is so important to have your car lights checked at regular intervals. Many cars on the road have serious lightning system faults, thereby increasing the probability of an accident happening. For example, if a brake light is not functioning properly, rear-end collisions become almost inevitable. The same is true of a faulty turn signal indicator.

When you bring your car to our Bosch Car Service Centre, our technicians will conduct a free light test using the latest test equipment. If necessary, we will replace and repair any faulty lights with Bosch’s top-quality automotive bulbs. Our service also includes the adjustment of headlamps and fog lamps, where manufacturing inaccuracies may lead to the misalignment of the headlamps.

The Department of Transport urges motorists to drive with their lights on during daytime. It makes it easier to see oncoming cars in low-light situations such as glare, shade or dusk, and the motorist’s attention is grabbed a bit faster. Driving with your lights on, however, causes greater wear and tear on your car’s bulbs. Bosch manufactures daytime bulbs to ensure durability while you drive around with your lights on all of the time. 

Inspections

It is always a good idea to have your car carefully checked at regular intervals to ensure that you are safe on the road and reach your destinations without any hiccups along the way. Our Bosch Car Service Centre provides expert inspections with no loss of manufacturer warranty coverage.

Our professional technicians perform all the essential checks, which include:

  • Electronic systems (horns, lighting, starter motor and alternator)
  • Lights

  • Air-conditioning
  • Filter replacement (air filter, oil filter and fuel filter)
  • Oil and fluid replacement and top-up (oil, coolant, brake fluid)
  • Battery

  • Tyres (balancing, alignment, pressure)

Remember to have your car inspected from front to back by our friendly Bosch team before you embark on a well-deserved holiday. We use only the latest diagnostic equipment which will offer you peace of mind and ensure vital safe travels with your family.
