Something not right with your car? Whether you're hearing a knock, the engine's running rough, or you've got a warning light that won't go away, we'll find the problem and fix it properly. We work on all makes and models for Alyth drivers.
We've been the trusted repair garage for Alyth drivers for over 30 years. We're not the cheapest — but we do the job right, we use good parts, and we stand behind our work.
Sometimes the best repair is prevention. If your car's been neglected or you've just bought a used vehicle, a thorough service can reveal issues before they become expensive problems.
Brakes are our bread and butter. Whether it's squealing pads, a vibration through the pedal, or a soft brake feel, we'll inspect the full system and tell you exactly what needs replacing. We use quality parts and we guarantee our work.
A slipping or juddering clutch makes driving miserable. We carry out full clutch replacements on all makes, and we'll always check the flywheel while we're in there. It's a big job, but we price it fairly and explain everything before we start.
When something's wrong but you're not sure what, diagnostics is where we start. We'll read the fault codes, interpret them properly, and give you an honest assessment of what needs fixing.
The most common repairs we carry out for Alyth drivers are brake pad and disc replacements, suspension work, exhaust repairs, and battery replacements. We also see a lot of timing belt jobs — if yours is overdue, don't put it off. A snapped timing belt can write off an engine.
Tell us what's wrong and we'll take it from there. We'll diagnose the issue, call you with our findings and a price, and only proceed once you've given us the go-ahead. No surprises.
"Never ignore a timing belt warning. A new belt costs a few hundred pounds. A new engine costs thousands." — Bob, Workshop Owner
The best way to avoid big repair bills is to keep up with your servicing and don't ignore warning signs. A noise, a vibration, or a warning light is your car telling you something — the longer you leave it, the more expensive it usually gets.
Our workshop in Birnam is easy to get to from Alyth — around a 30 min drive. We repair cars from across New Alyth, Bamff, Ruthven, Kirkton of Lethendy, Glenisla and the Perthshire area.
