FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

After posting a job ad on who can fix my car and receiving a quote the next morning from Stuart, I got booked in for the next day. I got a camshaft sensor replaced, as well as him noticing fluid levels were a little low and topping these up too for me, also, which was very kind! Unfortunately, there was a little issue (no fault whatsoever from SM Auto Tech), and it was investigated until he had to leave for another job. I was then rebooked again for the next day, and another gentleman came out to further diagnose the issue, resulting in a pesky battery issue causing more faults to appear! Both mechanics that came out (I’m so sorry I’ve forgotten the names) were lovely and fully explained everything done with the car and the situation. Couldn’t be happier with the service provided and appreciate you all going above and beyond to sort my car so quickly! First time I’ve ever used a mobile mechanic, but will be back with you guys when needed. I appreciate it and thank you all so much again.
