Hybrid Servicing in Coventry by Specialists

How It Works

1

Engine Maintenance

We do the traditional work: fresh synthetic oil, filters, and spark plugs for the combustion engine.


2

Inverter Coolant

We check and replace the specialized hybrid inverter coolant, which is totally separate from the engine coolant.


3

Battery Filter Clean

Many hybrids have a hidden cooling fan in the back seat for the battery. We strip and clean this filter so the battery doesn’t overheat.


4

Diagnostic Health Check

We run a full scan on the hybrid system to ensure the regenerative braking and battery cells are performing perfectly.

Warning Signs

Engine Always On

The car refuses to drop into 'EV mode' at low speeds, meaning the petrol engine is constantly running.

Loud Fan Noise

A loud whirring sound coming from the back seats usually means the hybrid battery cooling fan is blocked with dust.

Sticky Brakes

Because hybrids use the motor to slow down, the physical brake calipers rarely get used and tend to rust and seize up!

Check Hybrid System

A direct warning light on the dash that disables the electrical side of the car entirely.

As well as a service I had asked for a tyre replacement & agreed the extra work to overcome misplacement of my locking wheel nut key. VRS later found my key (in a hidden compartment ) + advised the tyre replacement was unnecessary, saving me between £200 & £300 for which I am most grateful.

Always use these guys for MOT on my camper van. When work was needed to stop brakes squeaking it was fixed free of charge.

FAQs

Is a hybrid service more expensive than a normal car? +
Not really. While there are a few extra checks (like inverter coolant), hybrids actually wear out their brakes and engines much slower than normal cars!
Can you service my Toyota Prius or Lexus? +
Absolutely. We service all hybrids, including the incredibly popular Toyota/Lexus self-charging systems and modern Plug-in Hybrids (PHEVs).
Why are my brakes squeaking if I barely use them? +
That's exactly why! Lack of use causes rust to build up on the discs. We offer a hybrid brake strip-and-clean service to keep them moving freely.

Due for your annual hybrid check?
