  Ct garages in Southville have been good to me and have good reviews, I found them on https://www.goodgaragescheme.com Plenty of other options on that site however. I have had MOT done there twice and service done once Edit: see below replies on goodgaragescheme

  Kwik fit Air con So my car aircon has stopped working over the past few months. Slowly getting less and less effective so I'm thinking it needs a regas. Looking at the local options to me Kwik fit is the cheapest but by such a long way it seems suspicious. Has anyone else used them for the service? I'm trying to work out if they're so cheap because it's not going to really help, or if everyone else is massively overcharging (including Halford autocentre which I've used for other stuff and their prices seemed more normal)

  I always go to my local garage which is part of the [good garage scheme](https://www.goodgaragescheme.com/), been going to them for the past 7 years I think, can't fault them. Try and find one close to you that is part of the scheme and check their prices out.

  freepineapples asked:

  New to town - Need a good mechanic this weekend (near BS5 if possible?). Any recommendations? Hi, I have a 2001 ford transit van and she's started to make clunking noises today. My boyfriend is going away tomorrow for work and was going to take the car.. so we really need someone to look at it today. Do any of you know a really good and honest mechanic? Someone that can do fault finding on something that might not be immediately obvious? I found someone recommended streetwise previously but they are already shut. (I also looked at google and there is a place Called 'Bristol mobile mechanics' but the reviewers look dodgy- has anyone heard of them?) We are new to town and being an old van she's had a few problems, and our friends here dont have cars so we are bit lost. We have roadside assist with RAC but would prefer to just get it checked before actually breaking down and getting stranded.

  Lesley P. asked:

  Has anyone had any experience (good or bad) with the Halfords Autocentre on Talbot Rd?? I'm looking to get my car M.O.T'd and serviced, I usually use Kwik-fit but Halfords are quoting a substantial cheaper price, so wondering whether to try there or stick to what I know and pay more?!? Any advice much appreciated

  Not sure if this is any use??? Might be worth a look get an unbiased view? https://www.goodgaragescheme.com/

  Andy B. asked:

  Can anyone recommend a good small garage that does services on cars using genuine parts? A simple one guy outfit is fine as long as they're reliable.

  

  Claire G. replied:

  I would recommend using www.goodgaragescheme.com and www.motorcodes.co.uk as these will give you independent customer feedback on garages and you will know that these garages have to meet strict guidelines to be members of these organisations.

  Newtoreddit18 asked:

  Can anyone recommend a decent garage in South Manchester? Car needs an MOT and service. As the title says really. I'm a young blonde girl who despite knowing lots about other things (...) doesn't know much about cars, so I'm pretty wary about getting badly ripped off. This is my first year living up here and I wondered if anyone could recommend a garage for an MOT and service. I've had a google but the ones I've found are either really expensive from the outset, or too cheap to be true. I've a 14 year old micra but it's pretty reliable and the services /mots have never cost much in previous years. I live in Didsbury and ideally if its not open/can't do it this weekend, it needs to be somewhere where I can drop the car off and go get a bus/train/tram into the city centre for work. Grateful for any recommendations received!

  

  andreota replied:

  I recently made a very similar post in this subreddit and got some recommendations: http://www.reddit.com/r/manchester/comments/26 gg78/any_honest_and_trustworthy_car_mechanics_in_south/ Also have a look at The Good Garage Scheme (http://www.goodgaragescheme.com/). From there I have tried Bridge Garage in Chorlton and have been good so far. M.O.T. was £45 and service £120.

  Steve M. asked:

  I have to MOT my BMW 3 series this month. I am fed up with being charged a fortune by an authorised BMW dealer for work on the front suspension every year despite having had every part changed at least once, the car only having 80,000 miles on the clock and being gently driven. I have been told QuickFit is even worse. I have heard of http://www.motsupercentre.co.uk/. Does anybody have experience of them or have somewhere they can recommend for honesty?
