What does a Holiday Check cost?
With a comprehensive holiday check you minimise the risk of breakdowns when you go on holiday - so that you can enjoy your holiday relaxed and safe.
How much does a holiday cheque cost?
A holiday check-up on yourwheels.ch costs an average of CHF 49.00.-. The price may vary depending on the region and workshop. You can compare the prices of different garages by accessing the "Holiday Check" service and selecting different garages one after the other.
What is done at the holiday check?
During a holiday check, the workshop checks the condition of the vehicle and prepares it optimally for the forthcoming journey. To this end, all electronic components, windscreen wipers and washer system, air conditioning, all fluids, the brake system and tyres are professionally checked and, if necessary, repaired, replaced or refilled.
Can I do a holiday check myself?
If your destination is not too far away or you do not want to plan a visit to the garage before the holidays, you can minimize the risk of breakdowns considerably with a few simple tips:
- Check the air pressure of the tyres
- Check level of engine oil and radiator fluid, top up windscreen wiper water
- Ensure that important accessories such as tools, spare wheel and breakdown triangle are available in the car
If you have any questions, do not hesitate to ask the specialist in your area for advice.
What else do I have to consider when going on holiday?
Once the car is technically ready for the holidays, there is only one thing missing: find out about the safety accessories you need to carry with you in your destination country. First aid kit, warning triangle and high-visibility vests for all passengers belong in every car. In many places, however, the legal regulations stipulate other accessories, such as a spare wheel, a towing rope or even a fire extinguisher. You can obtain up-to-date information on the prescribed safety accessories from your local specialist dealer or on the TCS website.
