Excellent service from Patrick! Charged me exactly what was quoted for MOT and service, including pick up and drop off. Very friendly and responsive through calls and texts. No wonder the company has such good reviews, highly recommended!
Very friendly service, very competitive price, great service of picking up delivering, highly recommend.
Superb from start to finish. The best customer service service I've had from anyone in a long time. Price very reasonable, would highly recommend and will be using in the future. Thanks.
Dan, 2006 Audi A6 3.0 TDI Quattro. I needed a new clutch, dual mass flywheel, and alternator belt. After inquiring at a number of different garages, ACS was able to offer the lowest price and the quickest service. Patrick collected and delivered my car at no extra cost. The job was completed to an excellent standard. The parts used were all genuine OEM (LUK), and Patrick was kind enough to talk me through the changes and help me get accustomed to the new clutch. Overall, I would greatly recommend ACS.
Patrick provided an excellent professional service and nothing was too much to ask. I had the cam belt and timing belt change. An engine EDT deep clean. Change of oil filter and fuel filter. I thought the price was good and would highly recommend Patrick.
Very nice guy, kept to the quote provided. Work completed on the drive which was very helpful rather than having to take to a garage. Polite friendly, great knowlege, very happy with work carried out will use in future.
Lee was great, turned up at the house on time with all the parts and carried out the work in a few hours and I could pay by card. No complaints, great guy and a great service.
Very friendly and helpful. Would definitely use again.
Great service. Final price exactly as quoted. Will use definitely use again. Thanks Lee
I have no hesitation in recommending Assist Autos. The convenience of them collecting the car and bringing it back 'all done' was something I wish I'd known about when I was working and would have saved me using up precious annual leave to get the job done. A really helpful service and well worth the money.
Prompt communication from start to finish! Very clean job and on time delivery as promised. Will surely use them again. All the best.
Excellent and thorough service. Comprehensive walkthrough of outstanding issues.
Went very smoothly and got some good advice.
Thank you so much guys ! Great job and done very quickly ! Thank you!
Great customer service very prompt professional and kept me well informed throughout the day. Did a great job on the car. Anees is a great owner will definitely be returning
Very happy with the service I received, MOT done and few minor issues resolved. Well within the promised timeframe. Second time using Eagle Autos and will continue doing so.
Very happy with the service and honest advice. Even though the initial issue turned out to be a bigger issue that they were unable to fix. A suspected puncture that turned out to be a shredded inside tyre. I was advised of another local garage where I could get my tyre replaced and he offered to call and arrange for me to go down there. Very appreciated even though they didn't get my business. Would definitely recommend and deal with them in the future, hard to find honest garages these days.
PERFECT AND FAST WORK! THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
Thank you guys- Kyle and Roberto. Great garage, work done to a professional standard. Highly recommended, would use again, good dealings.

good work done thank you had over jobs done
Excellent experience dealing with All 4 Wheels, what a pleasure. I rang the garage on Thursday to enquire about a cambelt change, the car was picked up from my workplace on Friday morning and returned to me before the end of the day with all works completed - very swift service! The final price was a little more than estimated due to a new fan belt being needed but this was all explained over the phone before they went ahead with the works. All in all a 5 star service and would recommend these guys to anyone.
Excellent work, effort put into the job with a very reasonable price. Also you will get 10% off voucher on next job which is definitely worth it. I will efinitely recommend it. Very satisfied customers here.
Very friendly, efficient and explained all the extra costs
Really good, I'm really happy!

Fantastic Job from Gavin, I will definitely going back again, very professional and friendly. Highly recommend to anyone!!
Amazing service, car fixed same day. Members of staff were really thoughtful and experienced!
Diesel Particulate Filters are extremely important to have in your vehicle. The filter captures and stores exhaust soot in order to help reduce emissions coming from diesel cars.
Ever since 2009, the Euro 5 standard has been enforced, a rule which ensures all new diesel cars must have particulate filters fitted.
These pieces of equipment were introduced in an effort to reduce the particle and soot emissions from diesel engines. Diesel Particulate filters (DPF) trap soot before it blows out of an exhaust and like any filter, it requires cleaning in order to maintain performance.
Fortunately the filter itself has self-cleaning capabilities known as regeneration.
There are two types of regeneration which can be carried out on your car.
This process happens automatically while the exhaust is at a high temperature which will usually occur when you are driving down a motorway or quickly down an A-road. However, as many vehicles aren’t always being driven at high speeds, an alternative system for regeneration exists.
This method of cleaning the DFP is controlled by an engine management computer and happens automatically when the filter reaches 45% of its limit. The process is initiated by the fuel injection being increased which makes the exhaust heat up and therefore clear the filter. However, if your drive is a short one and the process tries to initiate, it will not be able to properly clear the filter, in this eventuality, the warning light in your car will come on.
A drive of about ten minutes at a speed of around 40mph should be adequate for the process to be successful.
If these issues are effecting your car it is almost certain that you will need your filter replacing which is likely to cost upwards of £1000 including diagnostic and labour time.
And if you were thinking of saving all of that time and money by removing the filter completely, think again, it’s illegal to remove the DPF.
The Department for Transport states that it is an offence to remove the filter or modify the piece of equipment in a way which would result in the vehicle failing air pollutant emission standards. Breaking the law will result in the vehicle not being road worthy so if you are ever offered to have your filter removed, make sure to keep this in mind.
Every MOT now includes a check for the DPF and a smoke test from the exhaust so there is very little chance of getting away with removing the filter.
If you need to have the filter regenerated manually, you must take your vehicle to a trained professional immediately. They will initiate a process where the exhaust is heated up to a point where regeneration happens and soot is cleared from the filter.
