Individual car subassemblies naturally wear out after some time. However, there are certain failures which don’t result from the passage of time, but rather from the material and manufacturing defects. In such cases, drivers carefully check the warranty conditions and look for a way to save up on the repair.

The permitted average level of CO2 emission for particular vehicle manufacturers was also reduced, but most importantly, they manner of measuring the emission was changed.
Although not everybody is fond of them, the EURO standards – limiting i.a. nitrogen oxides and particulate matter emission – have been a necessity. It is these regulations that forced the car manufacturers to find better and more ecological solutions. What has the EURO 5 standard introduced?
There are more and more cars, and as the result, more and more emitted pollution – it’s impact on the environment could not be left unnoticed.
