Reviews are overwhelmingly positive, with customers frequently praising friendly, helpful staff, clear communication, speedy turnarounds, good value (especially via BookMyGarage) and the useful video/virtual health checks. Service quality, cleanliness of the waiting area and sticking to quoted prices are also regularly commended. A few customers reported issues — missing specialist oil, incomplete service‑book stamping or drum‑brake checks and occasional terse communication — so it’s sensible to confirm exactly what’s included when you book.

Most reviewers praise the garage for clear communication, friendly and professional staff, competitive pricing and swift, high-quality MOTs and services. Clients value the trustworthiness, detailed inspection reports and that cars are returned clean and ready to drive. A few mention minor concerns — brakes only just passed on one visit and follow‑up work was sometimes quoted higher than elsewhere — but say they weren’t pressured into additional repairs.

Customers frequently praise the garage for excellent service, strong communication, and efficient turnaround times, with several reviewers awarding top marks for their attentive, professional approach. However, a small number of customers experienced booking issues where appointments made through third-party systems were not recorded or parts were not ordered, leading to delays and requiring follow-up calls. When these administrative processes run smoothly, the garage consistently delivers quality work and a positive experience.
An air conditioning system controls the temperature in a car and works in a similar way to a kitchen refrigerator. When the fluid inside such appliances (also called refrigerant) changes from a liquid state to a gas, it cools down. Outside air is blown past the coils in which the gas flows, and is therefore also cooled before it is blown into the car’s cabin. The air con gas then returns to liquid form in the system's compressor, heating it up, but the resulting warm air is directed outside the car.
Air conditioning in a car serves two purposes. It cools down the interior of a car, dramatically so if needed, which improves passenger comfort and prevents the type of heat-related irritability that may lead to an accident. Also, because air conditioners generate air that is less humid than outside air, it can be used to demist a fogged-up windscreen more quickly than when air is blown out of a standard ventilation system. This might also prevent an accident from occurring.
A simple check of the temperature of the air emanating from an air conditioning vent will tell you if the refrigerant needs a recharge - some garages use the term 're-gas'. A warm air temperature would suggest that the refrigerant is low or old. Manufacturers typically recommend a recharge no matter what every couple of years to keep the system running efficiently; this involves topping up or refilling the system with fresh refrigerant. This may be all that is needed, but an efficient air conditioning system also needs to be serviced occasionally. If the refrigerant is replaced but the air conditioning system does not seem to be operating properly, either due to warm air or low system pressure, an air conditioning service will be required.
If the pressure in the air conditioning system is particularly low, there might be a leak. This can be checked during an air conditioning service that manufacturers suggest performing every 3-4 years. As well as a test for leaks and the inspection of refrigerant levels, the condenser, the compressor, the hoses and the drive belts are checked. The service also involves a cleaning to take any contaminants, bacteria or moisture out of the system before any new refrigerant is added, followed by a full recharge. It is important to note that an air conditioning service is not included in routine car services but has to be booked separately. Remember to do so because an inefficient air conditioner places greater demands on a car’s engine and requires more fuel to generate cool air, not to mention that any resident bacteria might cause illness.

How can you save money (and the environment) while you drive?
As every garage owner will tell you, there are some tried and tested ways to cut down on your petrol costs (and consumption) while you’re out and about in Keighley or beyond. One is to shut your windows. If you can hear that wind noise in your car it’s costing you more to drive. This is because the car becomes less aerodynamic and has to work harder to motor along. Removing a roof rack will improve your fuel efficiency for the same reason. Another useful tip is to combine short trips into one; each time you drive after your car has been parked for a while the engine will be cold and need to use a lot more fuel for the first 5 miles or so. If you do one trip from school drop-off to supermarket to office you’ll use far less fuel than if you do all those trips individually.
