Hi Tech Workshop

Ever noticed this button in your car but never pressed it? 👀🤔

The button shown is the rear window defogger/demister button.

🌫️😶‍🌫️ Its primary purpose is to heat the rear window and clear condensation, mist, or frost, helping you maintain visibility in colder or wetter conditions.

But here’s something many drivers don’t know 👇

On many modern vehicles, especially mid-range and higher-spec models, pressing this button also activates the heated side mirrors. The mirrors are often linked to the same circuit and will warm up automatically when the rear defogger is turned on, helping to clear mist and improve visibility.

It’s a simple feature that can make a big difference when driving in foggy, rainy, or cold weather 🌧️❄️

Next time your windows or mirrors are misty, look for this button and give it a try!

The countdown to the winter holidays has officially begun 👏🏻🤩😬
..and for many families that means loading up the caravan, hitching the trailer, and heading off in search of new memories.

‼️🌬️ The Highveld wind is basically free sandpaper ‼️🌬️

If you live on the Highveld, your car is constantly battling dust, dry grass, tiny stones, and strong winds.

🔧 This week’s tip:
That dusty layer on your car? Don’t wipe it off with a dry cloth!

Highveld dust is surprisingly abrasive and can create tiny scratches in your paint over time 😬

✅ Rather:
• Rinse the car first
• Use a microfiber cloth
• Avoid washing in direct afternoon sun
• Wax your car before windy season for extra protection

Your paint job deserves better than being exfoliated daily 😉😂

😂🔧 MONDAY MOOD 🔧😂

Because apparently cars can sense financial recovery 👀🤭

(P.S. If your dashboard is starting to look like a Christmas tree, don’t ignore it 👉 bring it to us and we’ll make sure your car is road-trip ready again!) 👨‍🔧🔥
