Services
What we do
- 01Servicing
- Full and interim: oil, filters and the checks the manufacturer set, with a list of what we found.
- 02Diagnostics
- Warning lights read properly, then traced — the code is where the work starts, not where it ends.
- 03Brakes
- Pads, discs, fluid and handbrakes, checked and priced before anything comes off.
- 04Timing belts and chains
- The job that is cheap to do and ruinous to skip, quoted with the water pump where it shares the work.
- 05Clutches and gearboxes
- The big jobs, quoted in writing with the labour set out separately.
- 06Suspension and steering
- Shocks, bushes, bearings and the knock you have stopped noticing.
- 07Wheel alignment and balancing
- For tyres wearing on one edge and a steering wheel that will not sit straight.
- 08Tyres and exhausts
- Fitted and balanced, and the exhaust repaired rather than replaced where that is honest.
- 09Batteries, starters and alternators
- Starting problems found rather than guessed at.
- 10Air conditioning
- Regassed and checked for leaks, before summer rather than during it.
- 11Test preparation
- Checked over before the annual test, so it fails on our ramp and not on theirs.
- 12Pre-purchase checks
- Before you buy somebody else's car, we will tell you what it needs.

Questions people ask
01Can I get a price first?
For anything known, yes, before you bring it. For a fault, we charge for the diagnosis and tell you the repair price before starting.
02What if you find something else?
We ring you. Nothing beyond what you agreed happens without a yes.
03My warning light came on and went off. Does that matter?
Sometimes. The code stays in the memory, so bring it in and we can read what happened even though the light is out.
04How long will it take?
Told when you book, and told again if it changes. Most servicing is the same day.
05Can I see the old parts?
Always. Ask when you drop it off and we will keep them for you.
06Do you do courtesy cars?
Ask when you book — we will tell you honestly what we can do that day.
