Pete was very professional. He checked car over. I needed a new battery so he took car to battery shop and changed battery there. I can now drive my car. I highly recommend him.

Pete was extremely helpful and knowledgable. In addition to diagnosing and fixing the exhaust on the Sunday morning, he also gave me some good advice about future maintenance which is likely to be necessary.

Thank you also to Click Mechanic for assisting with my issue and getting a second mechanic out very quickly. They also made sure I was charged for the correct service level.

Excellent work - found the leak very quickly and set our minds at rest that the car was still safe to drive.

Reply from Swindon Smart Car Specialist:

Thanks for taking the time to send us this review. I am happy I have set your mind at rest. The leak is very small and as long as you keep your eyes on water levels the car is usable. But the is a coolant leak not rain water. And should be fixed at your convenience. Take care Pete

Work carried out to brakes and other items was fine but mechanic failed to fully tighten one of the front wheels properly which then worked it's way loose creating a very strong vibration when my wife & daughter were driving. Fortunately we figured out the issue ourselves but disappointed that there was no response when it was mentioned to the mechanic.

Reply from Swindon Smart Car Specialist:

Wheels were done up to 50 newton meters automatically with the gun. This is a lot tighter than the customer claims of wheel nut at finger tight? Once the car is on the ground we go round all wheel nuts and tighten at least half a turn.
I didn't do nothing I drove the 30 miles to double check all wheel nuts and made sure they were tightened correctly. I will go again in a couple of days but I seriously doubt the wheel nuts were finger tight.
A text was sent about wheel nuts I don't respond because it was marked as FYI "for your information" and I thought it best to give the time and go check all was well with the car.
I am very sorry you're unhappy with the car I am also disappointed you have not said that we fixed you inlet manifold without extra charge inspection of back breaks with no extra charge fault found the break light indicator fault with no extra charge. You decided not to fix any of this at this time so we did a temporary fix on your inlet to make your car run correctly and lose the terrible noise that you had.
On a personal note I am sorry you're disappointed with the work we completed both free work you asked for and paid work through click.
