Kai was brilliant.

Initially believed it be a starter motor issue and was willing to get the part and come the following day.

He managed to get the car running however and runs as normal since then.

He advised the starter motor was running as normal and not to go ahead with the replacement for now as it wasn't needed.

Great service and honest workmanship.

Will be utilising his services in the future for alternative requirements.

Kai was fantastic, extremely friendly and helpful. He arrived early and changed the brake pads in no time. He also advised me about a couple of other things needing done to my car, so I will book him again in the future to do the work.

Service done on type 7 commercial van outside my house within 30 minutes. Most items on the full service checklist not checked. The old oil and filter was left on the kerb, when asked if it was being taken away he said it was not his oil and when I said that I couldn't dispose it he replied "Don't talk to me like that" as if trying to start an argument. I pointed out that he was being recorded by my ring doorbell and he immediately changed tune and said he would "Do me a favour " and remove it. A neighbour later showed me that all he did was take it round the corner and dump it in the bushes. A big pool of oil is left in the parking area.

Don't use this service if you are looking for a good service. Video of the 30 minutes fake service is available if anyone needs it.

They diagnosed the problem but left us high and dry in regards to getting it fixed and the costs. He said he would organise someone to email an approximate cost but this hasnt happened.

Kai was great, after booking initially for brake pads, Kai inspected the wheels and he said I needed brake discs as well, thought I might've to be fair, ended up paying an additional £400 but worth it and Kai completed the job. Great service and happy to have Kai fix my car in the future 👍

I booked Kai through ClickMechanic to replace the track rods on my car. Upon arrival, he realized the inner and outer track rods were seized, which required a full track rod assembly replacement. Although he tried to separate the components, he was unable to do so. He then left to re-quote the job, charging a diagnostic fee, which I paid as I needed the car repaired urgently.

When he returned to complete the job, he fitted the new track rod assembly but encountered issues removing the rubber gaiters (boots). Unfortunately, he ripped one gaiter, leaving a significant portion of the steering rack exposed to water, dirt, and debris.
He also removed the undertray to carry out the work, which is understandable, but it was not refitted, leaving steering critical components vulnerable especially in Scotland’s wet climate.

Kai advised he would return after 100 miles to check the track rods and refit the undertray, which I respected. However, this meant additional inconvenience and an incomplete job. Due to time constraints, I had to take the car to another garage to refit the undertray and replace the damaged gaiter work that could have been done in one visit if properly planned as he charged a Diagnostic fee.

Lastly, he left his oil pan behind, and despite my attempts to contact him, he never returned to collect it. While he completed much of the work correctly, the lack of foresight, the damaged gaiter, and the incomplete finish left me frustrated and inconvenienced. Based on this experience, I would not trust my car to him again.
