Our Core Services: MOT, Servicing, and Repairs Explained

Understanding what your vehicle needs and why is crucial. Here's a brief overview of our key services:

MOT Testing: Ensuring Roadworthiness

The MOT (Ministry of Transport) test is an annual test of vehicle safety, roadworthiness, and emissions required for most vehicles over three years old. It's a legal requirement to keep your vehicle on the road. Our certified testers conduct thorough inspections covering critical areas such as:

If your vehicle fails its MOT, we provide clear explanations and competitive quotes for the necessary repairs to get it back on the road.

Vehicle Servicing: Proactive Maintenance for Longevity

Regular servicing is the key to preventing costly breakdowns and ensuring your vehicle runs efficiently and reliably. We offer different levels of servicing to cater to your vehicle's specific needs and manufacturer recommendations:

• Interim Service: Ideal for high-mileage drivers or vehicles used for demanding tasks. Typically includes oil and filter change, fluid level checks, tyre pressure checks, and a general safety inspection.
• Full Service: A more comprehensive service recommended annually or every 12,000 miles. Includes all interim service checks plus air filter replacement, spark plug replacement (petrol engines), fuel filter replacement (diesel engines), and a more detailed inspection of various components.
• Major Service: Our most thorough service, usually recommended every two years or 24,000 miles. It encompasses everything in a full service, along with additional checks and replacements such as brake fluid changes, coolant checks, and gearbox oil inspections where applicable.

During any service, our technicians will meticulously check and top up essential fluids like coolant, brake fluid, power steering fluid, and screenwash. We also inspect brakes, tyres, and suspension to ensure they meet safety standards.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: How often should I get my car serviced?

It's generally recommended to have your car serviced every 12 months or 12,000 miles, whichever comes first. However, you should always refer to your vehicle's owner's manual for the manufacturer's specific recommendations, as service intervals can vary significantly between makes and models.

Q2: What happens if my car fails its MOT?

If your vehicle fails its MOT, it is illegal to drive it on the road unless you are taking it to a pre-booked appointment for repair. We will provide you with a detailed list of the reasons for failure (the 'refusal of an MOT test certificate') and can offer a quote for the necessary repairs. Most minor issues can be rectified quickly, and we can often re-test your vehicle the same day or the next.

Q3: Can you service a new car without invalidating the warranty?

Yes. Provided we use manufacturer-approved or equivalent quality parts and follow the manufacturer's servicing schedule, having your car serviced at K-Max Garage Services will not invalidate your manufacturer's warranty. We adhere strictly to these guidelines.

Q4: Do you offer courtesy cars?

We understand that being without your car can be inconvenient. Please contact us to enquire about our courtesy car availability. We aim to accommodate our customers wherever possible.

Q5: How long does an MOT test take?

An MOT test typically takes between 45 minutes and 1 hour to complete. You are welcome to wait in our comfortable reception area while your vehicle is being tested.
