Ford won't start (or with difficulty)? Our local mechanics will resolve things.
Great services overall. It’s just a shame my van was too far gone and not worth fixing
Excellent service
Excellent customer service and very reasonable prices, also the option to pay in 4 monthly installments and it's interest free, they will even collect your car from home or work and return it when it's fixed or theres a courtesy car option for free. Fantastic experience and I will definately be using them for all my mechanical work from now on.
Guys sorted me out at half the cost of my usual garage. Would defo recomend them.
Fantastic service from friendly staff. We were in Glasgow when car warning lights appeared and were unsure who to contact. Through whocanfixyourcar.com we were given Drivers Aotocentres Ltd to contact, who did a fantastic job in getting us back on the road. , The fault was much more complicated than at first thought, but they got the job done at a very reasonable price. Thank goodness we were directed to a reliable garage who obviously know what they are doing and charges in my opinion were very reasonable in the circumstances. Should I ever be in the area and have car problems I know who I will call. Drivers Autocentres Ltd are highly recommended.
Fantastic service quick and efficient will use again. Highly recommended
Great service and on time
Job done at an extremely good price (almost 1/3rd of main dealer cost) Car picked up and delivered back. No complaints at all. Will certainly use again and recommend to anybody.
Fantastic service from Auto Solutions. Collected my car and re-delivered to my house fixed within 48 hours. Price rose slightly by my own choosing due to them suggesting having the timing belt replaced whilst they had already stripped the car back. Highly recommend them and will likely be using them again in the future, super fast service.
good service, friendly people. Replaced timing chain, filters and all tippers. No more rattling noise when I drive!!
The perfect garage
Brilliant service. Collected and dropped off car with no problems. Car brake pads replaced and dealt with professionally from start to finish.
Job done quickly and will use this. Business again
Patrick Was very helpful, picked up and returned car and did a great job on the respray.
have owned my current car for 12 years during which time I have carefully maintained it. In the main it has normally gone to a main Ford dealer for servicing/repair work, however over the last few years due to the car getting older and moreso due to the ever increasingly over inflated prices that main Ford dealers charge, I have been looking for cheaper alternatives for repairs and subsequently have had several jobs carried out via this site. The first two jobs via this website were not good experiences due to poor workmanship and being charged for work that was never done. However my recent experience with this latest job has restored my faith in this site . Patrick the owner is very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable, he took the time to go on a test drive with me and confirmed the knocking noise that I was complaining about and identified the general area it was coming from. The car was booked in for repair the following week and subsequently when the car was in the workshop the mechanic quickly identified the exact problem part which was then ordered and replaced within an hour at a very reasonable price. The main Ford dealer who I had taken the car to prior to taking it to Patrick had actualy incorrectly diagnosed the problem and once again quoted a hugely over inflated price to get it repaired, it was the price they were charging that made me turn to this site again and this time I'm glad I did. The car is now back to how I'm used to it being and I would definitely recommend this garage and will certainly be using them again in the future
Quick and straight to the point.
These guys are brilliant, and always offer the best service at the best price. I've used them 3 times now and wont be going anywhere else. They collect from my work and always have it back, work complete the same day. Highly recommended! A+++
Garage collected and dropped of the car - quoted a second job at a very competitive price too! Everything fixed, no hassle. Would recommend.
Excellent service - competitive price - would definitely recommend this garage
Great job. Great price.
Clutch and flywheel replaced but found a hydraulic leak which needed a back order part. Kept me well informed and very apologetic as took a few days to arrive but quoted price of part first and didn't charge for its fitting. Great service.
Fantastic service delivered will definitely be my go to garage!!
Fast and efficient. Very impressed.
All work done to spec and cost
Fantastic same day service at a great price. Thank you do much.
Really good an busy garage,did a good job,friendly people working. I will be comming back and can recommend
Renault clio (65) £90 for full service labour only and mot. Parts supplied by owner. Guys did a great job and the mechanic had very nice manors and a funny sense of humour. Waited during the service and mot, was told it would take up to 2 hours but took 3 hours which was OK. They have KFC and chunky chicken near by to help u wait lol. Will use again for my next service. Traveled from Shaw which was about 9 miles away but worth it :) Mechanic left old parts in the bad as requested and my 1st mot passed. Thank you very much for the service. Wanted a good mechanic to do my fuel filter as its not an easy place to get to and didn't want my local shady mechanic to touch my car again. Oh I left about 4 chicken wings on your chair, sorry I forgot to take em, hope someone had them :) don't like wasting food.
I am satisfied.
I also had other work done . Full service brake pads all round and linkage arm was broken. It was booked for just the service but no problem for them to do the other work at the same time. Very happy with the work and price will return
The brakes were fixed quickly and well, the guys were very nice and kept me updated as the work was being done. Very good, and will certainly use them again.

No start on a rainy dayIf your Ford seems to be working fine on a dry day but won’t start when it’s raining, it’s likely that the distributer cap has moisture inside. Fortunately, this is not disastrous and will not require a huge amount of repair work from a mechanic. All that is involved in the service is using solvent to evaporate moisture from the unit.
If you think you can carry out this job and know where your distribution cap is, it is essential that you keep the following points in mind.
This is the easiest job to self-diagnose and complete without the help of a mechanic however the following issues should be referred onto a professional should you see these symptoms in your own Ford.
There is no way of knowing what could be causing you an issue so it is essential that you have a mechanic assess your car asap. If yourFord battery has died this will be an easier problem to resolve as all that is required is a jump from another vehicle.
If you need to jump start your Ford due to a dead battery, follow these instructions. However, don’t forget to have your vehicle checked by a mechanic even if a jump start works.
If the engine starts, brilliant! Take a drive around as this will recharge the battery.
vIf it doesn’t, go back and make sure the cables are all attached properly and let the other car run for five minutes or so.
