maintenance

The technical meaning of maintenance involves functional checks, servicing, repairing or replacing of necessary devices, equipment, machinery, building infrastructure, and supporting utilities in industrial, business, and residential installations. Over time, this has come to include multiple wordings that describe various cost-effective practices to keep equipment operational; these activities occur either before or after a failure.

    Service MG Basildon Essex

    Hi all. So I've been phoning MG in Basildon for 7 days now, sent 3 emails and promised 2 phone calls back. The point is trying to book a service on my 22 plate with 105000 miles and no joy. Has anyone used anyone else other than MG to do a service (in Essex if possible)? Thanks in advance.

    Seat deteriorating already

    Now 18 months and roughly 18,000 miles in and the fake leather around the driver's seat is deteriorating as shown. Any suggestions on anything that might slow it down? I know what to do with real cow, but not this new stuff. It looks like it is about to crack through to the surface.
