🔧 Belts are one of those jobs you really don’t want to put off.

This one came in for a replacement timing and auxiliary belt, and you can already see cracking developing across the old belt.

It’s a good example of why age and mileage intervals matter, even when there are no obvious problems and the car is driving perfectly normally.

Timing and auxiliary belts are service items, and replacing them on time is far cheaper than dealing with the damage that can follow if one fails.

Keep on top of the interval. A new belt now could save a much bigger bill later. 🔧

One of the most important fluids in your car! - and one of the easiest to forget. So we check it for you during every service.

Over time, brake fluid absorbs moisture, which can lower its boiling point.
In everyday driving you might never notice, but under hard braking, older fluid is more likely to feel soft or spongy just when you need it most. That's why most manufacturers recommend a change every two years.

We don't guess either; we test it with a specialist tool that measures the moisture content, so you get a real answer:

Might need doing? We'll show you why.
Perfectly fine? We'll leave it alone.

While you're booked in, ask about our service and MOT deals - both sorted in one visit.

We've cared for customers who came in with their first cars and now return with their children’s cars.

This trust isn’t built by offering the lowest prices; it’s earned by honestly informing customers about what their car truly needs, and equally, what it doesn't. It’s also built on relationships with people and providing a service with a personal touch.

Here's why it's so important that a DSG & Haldex service is done properly 💥

Fresh fluid is just part of it. We also clean the gauze inside the Haldex pump, which catches metallic debris over time. Main dealers will typically just drain and fill, and this is why taking that extra step matters so much. If it's not cleaned as part of the service, the oil flow to the clutch pack gradually becomes restricted.

If your VAG car is due a DSG or Haldex service, give us a call.

⚠️ Unusual tyre wear?

Cracking and splitting like this is usually a sign of a suspension or alignment issue - the tyre is just where it shows up. In this case, suspension bushings and an alignment were needed.

Replace the tyre without sorting the cause, and you'll be back in the same position before long.

It's also a serious safety issue, so if you're not sure, pop in, and we'll have a look for you. Luckily for this customer, they were already aware and had it booked in for repairs 😌

We'll check the alignment and suspension, tell you exactly what's causing it, and we've got everything here to get it sorted properly.
