History of the Dacia
The Dacia marque was taken over by Renault in 1999, and over the years, the brand has produced many different types of vehicles, from compact saloons to minivans, convertibles, pick-ups and even stretched limousines. In more recent years, models such as the Dacia Duster and the Sandero have become especially popular. Older Dacia models have become something of a classic, and many enthusiasts still enjoy restoring or driving them.

How Often Should You Service Your Dacia?
Most Dacia models are reliable and offer excellent value, but they still need regular servicing to stay in good condition. Looking after your Dacia will help it run well for longer, and having a full service history can help older models keep their value. Many drivers choose to book their annual MOT and full service together at Protyre because it saves time and can save money too. Protyre offers four levels of servicing:
The Silver Service is similar to an interim service and covers the main checks your Dacia needs.
The Gold Service is a full service and includes extra checks such as the engine air filter, fuel filter and radiator.
The Bronze Service is a basic option and is useful if you drive high mileage and want reassurance between full services.
The Platinum Service is the most complete option, with a full diagnostic scan, wheel alignment check, TPMS battery check, air conditioning inspection and more.
All parts fitted are OEM quality and come with a 12-month or 12,000-mile guarantee.
Common Maintenance Issues for Dacia Owners
Some Dacia drivers have reported occasional stalling. This can sometimes be caused by timing issues or fuel line problems. If you notice your engine behaving this way, Protyre's trained fitters can carry out a tune-up during your service.
Tyres and Safety Checks
Many Dacia models come with a tyre repair kit instead of a full-size spare wheel. Because of this, keeping your tyres in good condition is very important. Manufacturers usually recommend checking tyres every two weeks. It is easy to spot obvious problems such as nails or deep cuts, but uneven tyre wear is harder to see. At any Protyre garage, trained tyre specialists can check all your tyres for you and supply and fit tyres from brands such as Falken and Sumitomo. You can view the full range of tyres at https://www.protyre.co.uk/tyres
Comfort and Convenience Upgrades
To keep costs low, Dacia sometimes leaves out certain features, such as upgraded radios or spare wheels. Fitting a new radio is not always straightforward because not all units fit perfectly, and some wiring may need adjusting. Protyre technicians can help you choose a suitable radio and install it safely. To find your nearest garage, visit our garage page.

Next, choose your local garage. Prices appear once you select a location. Then choose which type of service you want. You can also add an MOT at the same time if you wish.
