Services
Servicing, repairs and engine rebuilds
A service is the cheapest hour an engine ever gets, and a rebuild is what happens when it never got one. We do both — priced on your registration, diagnosed before it is quoted, and never started without a call.

What we do
Four things, done properly
Every job that comes through the workshop is one of these, or a combination of them. If you are not sure which, send the registration and we will tell you.
Servicing
Oil and filter, interim and full — priced on your registration rather than read off a chart. Tell us the mileage and we will tell you which one it is actually due.
- Oil and filter change
- Interim service
- Full service
- Service book stamped and the work written up
Repairs
The jobs short of a rebuild. Diagnosed properly first, so you are paying to fix what failed rather than to find out what failed.
- Head gaskets, warped heads and pressure testing
- Timing belts, chains, tensioners and guides
- Turbochargers, injectors and glow plugs
- Oil leaks, water pumps and cooling faults
- Engine management and warning lights
Rebuilds
A full strip-down with everything measured, machined where it needs it, and rebuilt to spec. Run up and tested before it goes anywhere near the road.
- Strip, clean and inspect, every clearance recorded
- Cylinder head and block machining as needed
- New bearings, seals, gaskets and timing components
- Reassembled to torque spec
- Run up, road tested, handed back with run-in advice
Auto electrical
Faults that live in the wiring rather than the metal. Traced with the right kit first, so the part that gets replaced is the one that actually failed.
- Batteries, charging and starting faults
- Alternators and starter motors
- Warning lights and fault code diagnostics
- Parasitic drains and flat-battery faults
- Lighting, wiring and connector repairs
- Central locking, electric windows and sensors
Locksmithing coming soon
Prices depend on the car, the oil it takes and the parts it needs, so we quote per vehicle rather than pretending every engine is the same. Send the registration and you will get a figure, not a range.

Opening hours
Built around your working day
Most of our customers need the car to get to work, so we keep the hours they can actually make — early, late, and at the weekend.
Weekdays till 7pm
Drop the car off on the way to work and collect it on the way home. No day off, no lift to beg for.
Every other weekend
Saturdays and Sundays, one weekend on and one off. Ring ahead and we will tell you which weekend suits the job.
Every other weekend
Student discount
10% off labour for students. Mention it when you book and bring your student card when you drop the car off.
How it works
Booked in, done, back to you
The same four steps whether it is an oil change or a bottom end. The third one is the one that matters.
- 01
Send the registration
Plus the mileage and what the car is doing. We come back with what it needs and what each option costs — a figure, not a range.
- 02
Drop it in
The workshop is on Melton Business Park. Open into the evening on weekdays and every other weekend, so it does not have to cost you a day off.
- 03
One phone call
Anything we find is photographed and phoned through before it is touched. You hear what is urgent, what can wait, and what is fine.
- 04
Back to you
Road tested, the book stamped and the work written up. Old parts kept for you to see if you want them.
Also while it is in
Jobs worth doing at the right interval rather than on a second visit later. Say the word when you book.
- Cambelts & chains
- Water pumps
- Brake pads & discs
- Brake fluid
- Coolant changes
- Gearbox & Haldex fluid
- Diagnostics
- Warning lights

Engine trouble rather than a service? Ask for a repair quote and we will diagnose it before anything is priced.
