Our Range of Garage Services include:

BRAKES

We offer free brake checks

If you feel your brakes are not responding as normal, or if you notice grinding, or whirling noises you shouldn't drive the vehicle. Additionally, if your brake warning light illuminates, don’t delay, ensure you get your system checked out.

We are able to check your car’s braking performance and advise on the condition of your brake pads and discs etc. We can also replace your brake fluid, which should be changed on a regular basis to maintain braking performance.

STEERING

If your wheels are incorrectly aligned this can affect the wear and tear on your vehicle’s tyres. Precise four wheel alignment will improve the wear of your tyres, increase their lifespan and performance, and save on fuel consumption. It will also benefit from improved handling and driving safety by reducing steering and stability problems.

SUSPENSION

The car’s suspension include a coil spring and shock absorber. These two components work together to dampen down and cushion the vehicle by absorbing the impact from rode bumps and curbs. We can check your vehicle to ensure the integrity of your suspension.

CLUTCHES

The slipping or worn clutch creates problems with changing gear or difficulty accelerating up a hill. If you have an automatic gearbox not making gear changes correctly is the most common fault.It’s better to deal with a clutch problem when you first notice it, otherwise it will cost you more.

GEAR BOXES

Most of the gearbox problems can be solved by simply making adjustments to the gear selection mechanisms rather than changing the gear box. Call into Timmy’s Auto Aid, we will inspect your vehicle and advise you of the best solution.

DIAGNOSTICS

Diagnostics are very useful in determining problems and future problems with your car. If you have lights appear on your dashboard alerting you to an issue, you may require an engine diagnostics check to identify a potential problems with your vehicle. We have up to date equipment to enable us to reset steering angle sensors, air conditioning systems and TPMS.

How does Diagnostics work?

A diagnostics test is performed by connecting a special computer to the connecter found in your vehicle. The scanner then receives data from the vehicle providing information on the vehicle and produces a specific code that relates to a problem. Therefore, the mechanic can then identify what is wrong with the vehicle.

EXHAUSTS

Your vehicle’s exhaust system helps to direct poisonous gases away from the vehicle interior, preventing the driver from being exposed to toxic gases. Another function is to ensure the vehicles performance, power and fuel efficiency.if it’s a complete new exhaust system or a partial part replacement you need, you can drive in when it’s convenient for you or contact us today on 01923 256405.

PUNCTURE REPAIRS

If your tyre has lost pressure and you think you may have a puncture, we will happily inspect the tyre for you. We will repair it if we can or advise you that you need a new tyre. No appointment necessary.

Locking wheel nut removal

Have you lost your locking wheel nut key? We can remove virtually all locknuts on the market with no damage to the wheel.

TPMS

Tyre Pressure Monitoring System permanently moniters of the pressure of your tyres. A radio transmission is made between each electronic wheel sensor-valve and the dashboard, which will inform you should you have a slow or fast puncture or a blow-out. We are able to replace and re-code most TPMS valves.

BATTERIES

If you notice your car is not starting as normal, especially in cold weather, it may be your battery that is causing the issue. We offer a free battery health check and can advise on its condition. It is a wise decision to change your battery before it completely fails.
