Friendly and knowledgeable. They discovered one part didn’t need replacing so knocked that off the bill instead of just doing it. Brilliant. They also replaced an alternator on another of my cars two days ago with no issues.
Excellent job, fast response Highly recommend!

Excellent service they were welcoming and nothing seemed a problem. I was quoted £350 for a clutch replacement but they checked the car first and only needed filters replaced so they did a full service also. Great lads, great service thank you I will be using you again.
Great service will recommend to anyone with gearbox trouble Five stars from me
My go to garage! After discovering the engine management warning light had come on last Sunday evening, I was contacted by Patrick within an hour. He offered to come and collect my car on the Tuesday morning and quoted me a very reasonable price to run a diagnostic. I was kept up to date on the day as to what was wrong with the engine, what needed to be replaced and how much it would cost. My car was returned by 4pm the same day, all fixed and running as should be. Amazing service from Patrick and the team!
I can highly recommend this garage, Patrick was extremely pleasant, efficient and helpful all with a reasonable price. They are extremely reliable with all aspects and keeping us informed all the way through the job. Will use again in the future and highly recommend them to anyone who needs a garage.
Great guy. More issues on my car were found and sorted out and a reasonable price and quick turn around. Will go extra mile to help out when stranded in motorway as well.
Amazing service....this will now be my go to garage.....would highly recommend!!!

Great customer service and very fast turnaround time to get the job done. The car needed a bit more work than just the turbo replaced, however, I was ultimately very happy with the end result. Good value for money and great communication. Thanks, guys, will definitely come here with both my cars whenever they need maintenance.
Needed a new wastegate actuator. Phil was the only honest quote i had on here which gave me confidence to go with his garage for the first time. The first part from vauxhall was faulty but Phil was happy to get this sorted and replaced it when it was convenient for me. Great little independent garage. Thanks Phil
Amazing service. Friendly and efficient. Had my large turbo replaced on my 635d, Jay kept me in the know of how it was getting on and the issues that had caused the failure. Quality place to have work done and would certainly recommend.
Absolutely would recommend Adrian to friends, family and strangers. The service was exactly as described, as was the price. He collected the car and dropped it back when it was finished, with a full explaination of the fault as well as the completed work. THANK YOU!!

Car turbos are most commonly associated with diesel and high performance vehicles, but they are also increasingly being used in petrol cars as a method of improving engine efficiency and performance.
The principal behind a turbocharger (or, simply, a ‘turbo’) is simple. When your car’s engine runs, it sucks air in through the air filter, which is then mixed with fuel and ignited, creating the power that drives the engine. This ignition process creates waste gases which escape through the exhaust system. A turbo uses these gases to spin a turbine (essentially, a propellor) and this turbine is then used to push more air into the engine than it would naturally suck in. As a result, your engine can burn more of the air/fuel mixture than it otherwise would, generating more power. Turbocharing is increasingly popular in everyday petrol cars because it allows more power to be generated from smaller engines, without increasing fuel consumption and emissions to the level of an equivalent larger engine.
While the principle of turbocharging is easy to grasp, in practice a turbo is an advancec component with a large number of high-speed moving parts. Fault symptoms include blue/white smoke when accelerating, reduced power, a high-pitched whining noise when accelerating or, if you have one, reduced boost showing on the boost gauge.
