Really fast and friendly service..major service /timing belt / water pump replacement... great price and ideal for taxi drivers... highly recommended... Skoda Superb 2ltr cr se
Great service, great friendly staff. Never charged a penny for checking the error codes etc and also fixed the wee drop down compartment where the spring had popped out of (wife thought this was for popping the bonnet and pulled it too hard). Happy to recommend, and will be using Auto Solutions EK LTD for all future work/servicing etc on both mine and the wife's cars.
It was great!
Great job at a very good price. All done when promised. Excellent service.
Brilliant service, did the job whilst i waited
I first saw the reviews on who can fix my car and decided to take the plunge. What a guy. Patrick from the get go was extremely helpful. Explained the process and said my car would be ready in the evening. He messaged me and said my car was all good and gave suggestions that could be done in the future.. Picked my car up and talked me through any questions I had. I would recommend this garage and will return for all my future car troubles. Thanks again
Patrick was sterling. A real professional, very personable and a pleasure to interact with. The cost was very reasonable (its an old car and needed a bit of work doing) and the job was completed in good time without any issues. I'll be coming back next time. Thanks mate
Thank you Patrick and the team, I will definitely be back for my service soon.
Steve the recovery guy was really lovely and came the evening I booked the repair to collect the car, very efficient. Patrick was also great, organising the pick up for same evening and job was done very quickly. Car was picked up on Thursday and returned on Saturday. Whole process was stress free. Thank you. Oh and the clutch works great now!
Everything was excellent!
VERY HAPPY WITH THE SERVICE AND ASKED ME IF I WANTED ANY ADDITIONAL WORK DONE WHICH I KNEW NEEDED TO BE DONE. BY FAR THE BEST GARAGE I HAVE USED IN THE LAST 20 YEARS. THEY COLLECTED MY CAR FREE OF CHARGE AND DROPPED IT OFF TO ME FREE OF CHARGE WHICH HELPED ME MASSIVELY AS I HAVE KIDS AND WORK. WHAT IS MORE AMAZING IS THAT THEY BEAT THE PRICES BY NEARLY £200 OF OTHER GARAGES. KAZ THE OWNER WAS FANTASTIC WHEN SPEAKING TO ME THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE PROCESS AND MADE ME FEEL AT EASE. IF YOU NEED A GOOD GARAGE WHO ARE VERY HONEST AND HARDWORKING AND STRAIGHTFORWARD THEN LOOK NO WHERE ELSE APART FROM NEW SHEPPERTON TYRES & AUTOCENTRE. I HAVE NOT RECOMMENDED THESE GUYS TO MY FRIENDS AND FAMILY. MANY THANKS ONCE AGAIN. WILL DEFINITELY BE USING YOU GUYS AGAIN.
Amazing garage at an amazing price. 2 years warranty given on new clutch and beat all garages by £300. Highly recommend this garage for your work especially if you need a new clutch. Many thanks. Will 100 per cent recccemend this garage.
Kaz and his team did a fantastic job with my car, they changed my clutch and my gearbox within a day and even delivered my car back to me free of charge.
Great service for reasonable prices. Price includes recovering the car, replacing the clutch, adding gear oil and delivering the car to my house
Great Service & warranty, A pleasure to deal with.
I really do appreciate your service! Easy processing from first contact to finishing the job. Very friendly staff. This was the second job I booked with you guys and I'm a happy customer. I do hope my car won't have any issues for long but if it has I'll be back. Thanks guys! Keep it up!
Brilliant price and fast service! Can’t fault them at all!
Did an excellent job changing my front discs and pads . Would definitely go back again.
they couldn't find the issue, so didn't charge for all the tests
Excellent service, picked up and dropped off my car to fit a supplied back box and centre pipe. cost slightly more as the back box I had supplied didn't fit so they supplied one for me and returned mine. 100% deffo use again. One happy customer.

Great service and comunication. Will use this excellent garage again. Traditional top class small garage with a friendly and skilled team.
Although I couldn’t have my Van regarded initally it was due to a blockage in my pipes & there was no charge. I booked my Van In to have to work done & from the girls in the office to the Mechanics - Nothing was too much trouble & I was given a courtesy car too . I will Defo be going back to this Garage in the future as it was made painless from start to finish. Thank You

I was in contact with Fix my car by phone as it was a little complicated with time. I wanted to book the car in at 4pm and not 8am. I was flying in from another country and landed at 9am. Unfortunately fix my car did not listen to me at all and just booked the car in directly without my consent or without informing me that they had booked it in at 8am. So I was at Gatwick with my car and had a 2 hour drive to my garage. The garage called and cancelled the work and could only do an MOT the same day. Top work for Protyre for doing there bit. Fix my car I would not bother with. Use this service to find local garages and contact them directly. So I lost 1 day of my 4 day trip back to the UK and not getting my work done as planned. The garage lost revenue as they did not have the time to do the work as Fix my car did not listen to me as a customer. You can ask Graham at Fix my car about this 0797 039 7777. My advice use this application for research only and book direct. Top marks for Protyre for being so understanding,
Quick diagnostic, no hidden costs and professional service. Highly recommended!
Friendly and reliable professionals , will definitely return my custom
Although this wasn't the cheapest quote it was the easiest for me to get to. Price quoted was all I paid as the car needed no extra items. Alan in the office was lovely to deal with and chatted to me while I waited. I didn't have much to do with the workshop guys but they seemed nice too.

An interim service is carried out on a car by a mechanic, who checks a number of key components and parts of a car.
An interim service can be extremely helpful for finding minor problems before they develop into major ones as many parts of a car will naturally wear down over time. The ones at high risk will usually be checked during an interim service.
For a driver, having an interim service carried out is a smart move as you may not realise there is a problem developing and it could end up costing you even more money down the line.
It is also recommended that you should get an interim service every 6,000 miles.
What would you prefer, to replace a pressure gauge or have your car written off entirely due to the head gasket blowing!
The difference between a full service and an interim service is the amount of parts checked. As the name suggests, an interim service will be less thorough than a full service.
However, that does not mean that a lot is checked during an interim service!
In the next section, we will list what is checked during an interim service.
If you would like to know what is included in a full service, click here to see a dedicated page.
Engine oil is absolutely vital for keeping your car is good health and serious damage will be cause to a vehicle if there is low or none existent engine oil.
This is one of the easiest things to check and will always be included in an interim service.
Brake fluid is vital for the brake system as it is responsible for applying pressure to the pads and discs when bringing a car to a halt. If there is a small leak in the braking system, the liquid will inevitably pour out. This will then prevent you from braking all together so it is vital that this never happens!
During the winter months, if a car is left outside for an extended period of time, it will be subject to potential problems. Coolant is a liquid which runs through a car engine, keeping the level of heat and friction down, similar to engine oil.
The radiator needs to have a healthy supply of coolant to operate and keep the engine cool, which is why it is vital there is also enough anti-freeze in the system as well. If the coolant freezes and you start your engine in cold weather, your engine could overheat and damage could be caused extremely quickly.
Having enough windscreen wash may not strike you as critical, however, if you are driving your car and your view of the road becomes obstructed, you need to be able to wash your screen.
Like brake fluid, power steering fluid is checked in an interim service and the reason are exactly the same. Power steering fluid is critical for being able to steer a car and if there is a leak, or even air bubbles in the system, you will be in trouble.
If the problem is air bubbles, you can pump the clutch to resolve the issue, however, if there is a leak, a bigger repair will be required.
It is a legal requirement that you have working headlights so the wiring around rear and headlights will be checked during an interim service to ensure they are not at risk of cutting out.
Windscreen wipers naturally wear down over time and lose their ability to remove dirt and water from a windscreen. A mechanic will make sure your windscreen wipers are good enough to do this during an interim service.
The most common problem car batteries have is dying however, with a jump start, this problem can be sorted. A mechanic has no way of knowing if this will happen and so they cannot check for anything specific when it comes to this potential issue arising.
However, the integrity of a car battery could come into question and they can sometimes crack, resulting in battery acid spilling into the car engine. This is a very serious issue and so the battery will be checked for signs of damage during an interim service to ensure this does not happen to you.
The charging system is responsible for keeping your car battery full of power, if it is compromised, then it highly likely that you will suffer from a regular dead battery.
The alternator can be to blame for problems with the charging system and so will be checked during an interim service.
The most common issue the exhaust system suffers from is rust and leakage of dangerous fumes. There are several parts of an exhaust system which will be checked in an interim service including the catalytic converter which is responsible for taking the most toxic and dangerous elements out of the fumes created by a car engine.
A mechanic will mainly be checking for holes and rust when it comes to the exhaust system.
It is a legal requirement to have 1.6mm tyre tread depth in the UK as this allows a car to grip the road firmly, if it is any lower, you are actually breaking the law!
This will always be checked while an interim service is being carried out, as will a pressure check on your tyres.
A brake test will be carried out during an interim service to ensure your car is able to come to a stop properly. If your car cannot do this, there is a good chance the brake pads or discs have worn down.
Surprisingly, some drivers don’t realise that their steering isn’t what it is supposed to be which is why this service is provided in an interim service.
There may be a number of issues which would cause steering issues including wheel alignment, in which case, a simple fix is available.
The shock absorbers make up a part of the steering and suspension system and are self explanatory in their role in a car.
However, their effectiveness will drop over time resulting in a less comfortable ride for passengers. The large springs will be checked during a full service for degradation.
The suspension of a car is part of the steering system and so will be rigorously checked during an interim service.
As mentioned at the top of the text, an interim service can help identify problems before they arise as mechanics are trained to be able to recognise the signs of a part having issues at an early stage.
This means you will be able to avoid a serious and potentially dangerous situations developing in the future.
The cost of an interim service will vary depending on the garage and the car itself. At the top of the page you will be able to see what the average cost of an interim service is in the UK, however, you can get free and personalised quotes for an interim service using WhoCanFixMyCar.
