Castlecomer climbs through the old coalfield hills north-east of the city, so a typical run means hauling up steep gradients straight off a cold start in the high ground. Vauxhall Mokka, Ford Puma EcoBoost and Citroën C3 PureTech cars work those inclines on the Athy and Kilkenny roads daily. Cold-engine load like that strains a wet belt badly. We agree a fixed price before any work starts.
Areas our Castlecomer specialists cover: Clogh, Moneenroe, Crettyard, The Swan, Wandesforde, Kilkenny Street, Massford — and the wider Kilkenny area.
Steep climbs off a cold start load the engine while the oil is still thick, a combination that wears the wet belt's teeth early.
