Kiln Street Garage

What we do, and what we will not do

Servicing, diagnostics, brakes, clutches, cambelts and MOT preparation — and an inspection report you can read without a mechanic translating it. Nothing gets started before you have seen a price and said yes, which is the only part of this list that really matters.

What we do

From the first symptom to work you approved

Independent, family-run, on Kiln Street since 2011. We don't start work you haven't agreed to, and we photograph what we find so you can see it for yourself.

Diagnostics

Warning light on, noise you can't place, something that only does it when it's cold — we find out what it actually is before anyone quotes you.

Servicing

Interim and full servicing with a written health check — you see every finding, with a photo, before you decide anything.

Brakes & suspension

Pads, discs, calipers, shocks and springs. Measured, photographed, and priced before we start.

Clutch & cambelt

The big jobs, done properly, with a firm price agreed in writing before the car goes on the ramp.

Air-conditioning

Regas, leak detection and repair — handled by a technician qualified to work with refrigerant.

Vehicle health check

And here's exactly what the colours mean

Every service includes a written health check. We'd rather you knew what we meant by it before you booked, not after.

Needs attention now
This is at or past its safe limit. We would not drive the car until it's done, and we'll tell you plainly if we think it's dangerous.
Will need doing
Safe to drive today, but it is wearing out and will need attention — usually within a few months. We'll tell you roughly how long you've got.
No action needed
Checked, measured where relevant, and fine. Nothing for you to do.
Not checked
We could not see or reach this without further dismantling, so we are not going to guess. If you want it checked, we'll quote you for the strip-down.

This is Kiln Street Garage's own inspection of your vehicle. We are not an MOT test station and we do not carry out MOT tests — this report is not an MOT and carries no legal standing.

  • DemonstrationMorning listThe morning list is real machinery running on invented events. The consent gate, the identity check, the duplicate-suppression and the urgency ordering are all genuine — but every official event in this demo was written by us. None of it came from DVSA, no live feed is running, and none of these vehicles or defects exist.
