Fluid level checks — Iceland

Driving with the oil level too low damages an engine within a few hundred kilometres. A regular level check takes ten minutes and also spots leaks starting, before they get expensive. On Helplease, you describe your needs and the workers offering this service in Iceland are notified of your request.

What the service covers

  • engine oil level and top-up;
  • coolant;
  • brake fluid and screenwash;
  • tyre pressure and wear;
  • spotting leaks and suspicious marks.

Depending on the agreement, the job can include the level checks, top-ups, pressure checks, a visual leak check and a report on what needs attention soon.

Key points

Vehicle secured and engine cold

A vehicle is never worked on supported by a jack alone: handbrake on, wheels chocked, axle stands in place on flat, hard ground. Work is done with the engine off and cooled, because a hot cooling system is under pressure and scalds the moment a cap is opened. Fixings are tightened to the manufacturer's torque, and a short test drive is made before going back on the road.

Quote and vigilance in an emergency

An emergency call-out is still a service that can be discussed: ask for the estimated amount before the work starts, a detailed invoice at the end, and refuse to sign a document you have not read. Be wary of anyone piling up unjustified replacements, demanding immediate cash payment or refusing to put their estimate in writing. The worker must be qualified for the work concerned.

What affects the price

  • type of work;
  • the vehicle model;
  • parts and consumables;
  • location: home, office or car park;
  • length of the job.

The rate is agreed with the worker based on these elements.

Frequently asked questions

Is the work done on site?

Yes for most jobs, if parking allows it and access is safe.

Do I need to supply the parts?

Depending on the agreement: the worker can supply them or use the ones you have.

What happens to the waste?

Oils, filters and batteries are taken away and passed to a proper collection channel.

What information should I give?

The vehicle model and year, the exact symptom, the mileage, the location and the parking space.
