Common motor vehicle repair topics

The following issues can either be found at most MVR premises or are queries that have arisen in the industry. Some present significant and serious risks, others don't - but that doesn't seem to stop some people circulating scare-stories which become 'urban myths'. This puts the record straight on the significant risks in most MVR premises. Additionally there may be problems that are specific to certain sections of the industry - go to Bodyshops, Mechanical Repair or Roadside Repair to find the information you require.
