What Services Can I Book Online?

-

Air Con Re-gas
Online booking is available for both R134a and R1234yf systems. If you are unsure which gas your vehicle uses, we will confirm this when you arrive.
Why You Cannot Book Diagnostics Online
We do not offer online booking for diagnostic assessments. There is a very simple reason for this.
Every fault is different.
Every vehicle is different.
And every situation requires a different approach.
Before we confirm a diagnostic appointment, we focus on information gathering. We take the time to understand:
the symptoms
the fault history
previous work carried out
how and when the issue occurs
the vehicle’s age, mileage and condition
This allows us to make sure we are the right garage to assess your vehicle and to advise you on the best next step. It also helps us allocate the correct technician and the correct amount of time, reducing misdiagnosis and unnecessary costs.
If you require diagnostics, please contact us and a member of our team will guide you through the process.

Great Customer Service
The only garage I will be using from now on for my Tesla. My husband has a Nissan Leaf too so it’s nice to know there’s a local independent we trust to take our family cars too.
