What is in each service published
A service is a list of jobs, and most garages will not tell you which ones. Ours is on this page, tier by tier, so you can see exactly what you are paying for before you book.
We service cars and vans at 177 North Station Road. Servicing here does not affect a manufacturer's warranty, as long as the schedule is followed and the right parts are used, which is what we do.
What is in each service
Prices are for a standard car. Larger engines and vans cost more, and we will say so when you ring rather than at the counter.

Questions we get asked
Which service does my car need?
As a rule, an interim every six months or 6,000 miles, a full service every twelve months, and a major every two years. Ring us with the registration and the mileage and we will tell you which one is due rather than sell you the biggest.
Will servicing here affect my warranty?
No, as long as the manufacturer schedule is followed and the correct parts and oil are used. That is what we do, and we record it.
Do you do MOTs?
No. We are not an MOT test station, so we cannot do the test itself. What we do is everything a car fails on, and everything that comes up as an advisory: brakes, tyres, suspension, exhausts, corrosion and welding. Bring us the failure sheet and we will tell you what it costs to put right.
