Due to their safety-relevant nature, steering systems are mostly maintenance-free and designed to last for the complete vehicle life cycle. Of course, attachment parts can be damaged or worn out and should then be replaced.
In an era where vehicle technology is advancing at breakneck speed, the demand on Irish tyre bays has never been higher. From the specialised requirements of Electric Vehicles (EVs) to the increasing prevalence of ultra-low-profile performance tyres and oversized SUV rims, the “standard”
In the global commercial transportation industry, reliability is not optional — it is fundamental. Every delivery schedule, fleet operation, and long-haul journey depends on performance that is consistent, durable, and economically sustainable. Within the Truck and Bus Radial (TBR) segment, tyre performance directly influences uptime, fuel efficiency, safety standards, and cost per kilometre.
Comline Ireland is urging independent workshops to reconsider the use of copper-based grease on brake pads, as modern braking systems become ever more reliant on electronic sensors and precise component movement.
The integrity of a commercial vehicle’s (CV) braking system depends heavily on the correct attachment of friction material to the brake shoe platform for the drum brake. Riveting remains the most reliable method for securing brake linings, especially in heavy-duty applications. Improper riveting can lead to premature wear, reduced braking efficiency, and safety hazards.
The automotive aftermarket is built on choice, competition and collaboration. Unlike vehicle manufacturers, it does not rely on a single data source or closed ecosystem. Instead, it brings together information from thousands of manufacturers, brands and suppliers, all working to support independent workshops and motor factors.
Every workshop needs reliable solutions for maintenance tasks. Because of this, TRP Parts highlights how its versatile range of aerosols are suited to cleaning, lubrication, protection, and painting jobs.
Grants of up to €8,000 towards an Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland (SEAI) EV Fleet Assessment are still available to large enterprises, SMEs, and semi-state bodies seeking to decarbonise their fleet but unsure where to begin.
For garages, service centres, and fleet operators across Ireland, choosing the right engine oil isn’t just a matter of lubrication — it’s about reliability, long-term performance, and protecting engines. That’s exactly what Quartz Ineo Pro 0W-30 delivers.
The EU road transport community made significant gains in 2025. In close cooperation with its members, operators and policymakers. The International Road Transport Union (IRU) helped drive progress on several major EU files, grounded in on-the-ground realities.
