Many tyres have tread wear indicator bars molded into the tread. When the tread is worn down to where you can see a solid bar of rubber across the width of the tread, it is time to replace the tyre. Here's another simple test you can perform to measure tread depth on your tyres. Place a coin into a tread groove with the head upside down and facing you. If you can see the top of the head, it's time to visit a Penfold Service Centre for a new tyre. Click here to make a booking or request a quote.

This might indicate "Service", "Service Engine" or "Maint Reqd". It's an indicator that you're getting close to a scheduled maintenance interval. On some cars it's as simple as counting kilometres before it comes on, whilst on others it maps engine temperatures, oil temperatures, air temperatures and other indicators of probable stress to tell you when it might be time for new oil or a service.

 

If this light illuminates, you should contact your Service Centre as soon as possible. The technician will complete a thorough check of your vehicle and reset the light.

This warning light is different in every car but usually looks like a picture of a battery. You'll see it come on and go off when you start your engine as part of the car's self-test.

 

If this light comes on and stays on, it means the electrical charging system is no longer working properly. Think of it like a cellphone battery. If the cellphone is plugged into the charger, you can use it indefinitely, but when you disconnect it from the charger, there's a limited amount of time before your battery runs out.

 

It's exactly the same in your car, only bigger. Every car has an alternator - the charger - and a 12V battery used to supply power to the electrical system. If the alternator becomes faulty or the drive belt to it snaps, it will not be able to do its job. The longer you drive, the more your car will use up the remaining juice in the battery and eventually the engine will die. This almost always requires a new or refurbished alternator and/or battery.

 

If this light is illuminated, you should contact your Service Centre as soon as possible.

Most cars have a brake warning light on the dash. Its purpose is to alert you that something is wrong in the braking system. The brake warning light can indicate numerous things. You should have your car looked at to identify the problem and have it fixed as soon as possible.

If it comes on, you should have your car looked at as soon as possible. It usually means the ABS computer has diagnosed that something is amiss in the system. It could be something as simple as dirt in one of the sensors, or something as costly as an entire ABS unit replacement. It's important to note that this light normally comes on when you start the car and then switches off a few seconds later. If it blinks, throbs, flashes or in any other way draws your attention to itself, you should take note. Compared to a steady light, a blinking ABS light normally indicates something more serious.

This is normally the coolant level warning light. If this comes on it means that the level of coolant in your radiator is low and needs topping up. DO NOT OPEN THE RADIATOR CAP WHEN THE ENGINE IS HOT! The coolant system is pressurised and it could easily release pressure and spray you with boiling coolant. Do it when the engine is cold.  The coolant mixture behaves as an antifreeze in winter as well as a corrosion-inhibitor to stop your engine rusting from the inside out.

It is best to visit your Service Centre and have your coolant professionally topped up.

Typically this light will come on if your oil pressure is too low. Low oil pressure is serious and if you continue to drive with this light on, eventually your engine will die. Low oil pressure can be caused by a failed oil pump, a blocked oil filter or strainer in the sump, or by low oil levels - for example if your engine is burning oil.

You should have this inspected at your closest Service Centre as soon as you notice the problem.

The Program covers all items specified under the Regular Service Tables for each vehicle type detailed in the Service and Warranty Customer Information booklet, including parts, labour, oils and fluids, workshop supplied and environmental or waste oil disposal charges.

• LPG additional maintenance items.
