Caravan and Trailer servicing

Are you a grey nomad, off-road adventurer or a family who loves getting away in their caravan?

Caravan and trailer maintenance is crucial for ensuring safety and reliability on the road, especially when embarking on a road trip, off-road adventure, or holiday. For residents and travellers in Salisbury Plain, The Engine Bay offers specialised caravan and trailer servicing to keep your towed vehicles in peak condition.

Importance of Regular Servicing

Even if you don't use your caravan or trailer regularly, annual servicing is essential. A lack of use can lead to component failures and deterioration, which might go unnoticed until it's too late. Grey Nomads and occasional road trippers alike should ensure that their trailers or caravans are serviced at least once a year.

Key Areas to Inspect and Service

When preparing for your next off-road adventure or holiday, it's critical to have certain components inspected and serviced:

  1. Wheel Bearings: Over time, wheel bearings can wear out or become damaged. Regular inspection helps in identifying issues before they lead to more significant problems like wheel detachment or breakdowns on the road.
  2. Brakes: Ensuring that the brakes of your caravan or trailer are functioning correctly is non-negotiable. Poorly maintained brakes can lead to dangerous situations, especially when towing heavy loads.
  3. Running Gear: The running gear, including the suspension and axles, should be in top condition to handle the rigours of road trips and off-road adventures. Proper maintenance ensures a smooth and safe towing experience.
