🚐 Another one back on the road! 🔧

This customer's van came to us with a flashing oil warning light and a tapping noise coming from the engine. After investigating, we found the cause – the oil pick-up pipe in the sump was completely blocked with fragments of the oil pump belt, restricting the oil flow and causing dangerously low oil pressure.

We stripped everything down, removed the blockage and made sure the engine had proper oil pressure again before sending it back out. We Booked the van back in for a new timing belt, water pump and a replacement oil pump belt.

A flashing oil light is never something to ignore. Turning the engine off straight away and getting it checked can be the difference between a repair and a complete engine replacement.

If your vehicle has a warning light or just doesn't sound right, get in touch – we're always happy to help 🔧

Another happy customer! 🔧🚗

We had this lovely Audi Q2 in today for its service and MOT. The owner mentioned it had received a full service at the main dealers less than 12 months ago.

However, when carrying out today's service, we found the pollen filter was in a shocking state to say it was less than a year old. It clearly hadn't been replaced as part of that previous service.

It's a good reminder that not all services are carried out to the same standard. Even at the dealerships. We even took 2 minutes to give the engine covers a quick clean which makes a world of difference aesthetically under the bonnet.

We always replace all the required service items and carry out every job thoroughly, so you know exactly what your vehicle is getting.

If your car is due a service or MOT, get in touch—we'll make sure it's done properly the first time. ✅🔧

Another one sorted today! 👨‍🔧

This customer came in with loose, faulty reverse sensors, plus the heated rear screen and rear wiper motor had both stopped working.

We fixed the reverse sensors and traced the other fault to some broken wires in the tailgate loom between the body and the boot. We Repaired the damaged wiring, tested everything, and now the parking sensors, heated rear screen, and rear wiper motor are all working as they should.

Now, can we have a quick word with MG...? Who thought making every wire in the loom white was a good idea? 😂

Another happy customer and another job done right. Get in touch for your free quote now! 📞

Another happy customer back on the road! 🔧🚗

Today we replaced a timing belt and water pump. This is one of the most important services you can have carried out, as a worn timing belt can fail without warning and cause severe engine damage.

We always recommend replacing the water pump at the same time if it's driven by the timing belt as it is on many vehicles. Doing both together helps save on future labour costs and gives you added peace of mind.

If you're unsure when your timing belt is due, get in touch and we'll be happy to check your vehicle's service schedule. 📞

Another happy customer and a great example of why accurate diagnostics matter! 🔧🚗

A customer came to us after being told by another garage that the noise coming from their vehicle was a timing-related issue, which could have resulted in a very expensive bill 💸

After carrying out our own inspection, we found the actual cause was a failing belt tensioner rubbing against the alternator pulley. The fault was quickly identified and repaired, saving the customer hundreds of pounds in unnecessary work.

It just goes to show that taking the time to properly diagnose a problem can make all the difference. If your vehicle has an unusual noise or fault, get in touch and we'll be happy to help 📞 ⚙️

A few little jobs completed over the past few days, keeping our customers safely on the road! 🔧🚗

We've been busy replacing brake pipes, drop links, exhausts and fitting new discs and pads. No matter how big or small the job, we always aim to provide quality workmanship and reliable service.

If your vehicle needs any repairs or maintenance, get in touch! 👍

Today's ‘simple’ job…replace a starter motor. 2018 Mercedes Vito with a 1.6 Renault engine in. Enough said 🇫🇷 🤡

Step 1: Remove the front bumper.
Step 2: Remove the headlights.
Step 3: Remove half the front end of the van.
Step 4: Question all of life's choices.
Step 5: Finally get to the starter motor tucked away and hiding away from sight

Whoever decided this was a good idea clearly never had to work on it! 😂

New starter fitted, van put back together and starting perfectly again, and another happy customer back on the road 🚗

Sorry we’ve been a little quiet on here lately… we’ve been super busy! 🚗🔧

Big thanks to one of the longtime friends of the garage who randomly turned up today with… a pet fish 😂🐟

Not entirely sure how we’ve gone from timing belts and brake pads to aquarium maintenance, but here we are.

The newest member of the team has settled into his new home after temporarily being put in the Snap-on parts jar while we sourced a suitable tank 😎

He hasn’t got a name yet so drop a comment below with suggestions for mascot names 👇🔧 🐟
