I was recommended to Chris and his team by a long term customer who has dealt with the team for many years. As I am out of the local area it was really important that I felt I could trust them. They gave me advice over the phone and suggested various courses of action that did not make them any money. I had a deadline for my cars work to be done and decided to take it to them. Just 24 hours after leaving the car with them they had been able to sort out the issue and at a lower cost than anticipated. I asked them to do some servicing work and they were able to keep the car a few more days to do this. When I came to pickup my A8 I was very surprised at how great and honest my final bill was. Other garages in the past have managed to inflate the bill or add extra work without consulting me. Chris was always there to take my call, answer my questions and finally give me a bill which was 100% sensible. I have now left my wife's car with them and am sure I will receive the same kind and thoughtful service and sensible bill again when the work is done. I cannot recommend highly enough this garage, if you can get to them you will not regret it. After all of the poor experiences I have had in the last 30+ years of motoring D J Garage is a wonderful breath of fresh air which I wish all car owners could have.

In the last 50 years, I have used many garages but this one is up with the best. Doesn't matter which make of car, new or old they have always given me good service. Over the last 20years just once was there a small problem. One phone call and without hesitation they came and collected the car and returned it to the door all sorted. It's a family run business rather than one of these big shiny outfits that I often found would squeeze whatever money they could from you via those little extras. The big outfits send you a video of the underside of the car after every MOT which really does nothing at all for the customer as they try to look flashy. So forgo the video and expect a job well done at a fair price

Investigate a software problem post-Citroen brake software safety recall

The nearest Citroen garage carried out a brake system software update on our DS3 in response to a safety recall. The car developed an engine problem causing it to judder and loose power. Called into our local D J Garage to see if they could help. They were friendly and helpful as always and tried hard to identify the problem. However, the software in the car had been corrupted and D J Garage were unable to access the system to resolve the problem but were able to advise us on how to deal with it. D J Garage declined to charge us for their work. Following D J Garage's advice, we were able to get the car back to the Citroen garage where they managed to establish via remote access by the Citroen technical people that the update had corrupted the fuel management software and then to remotely to replace the software. We thoroughly recommend D J Garage for the knowledge, quality of work, and helpfulness. Were are lucky to have such an outfit in our locality.

I have been using DJ Garage Services for over 15 years and would not consider taking my car anywhere else, even though I have moved out of the immediate area. This friendly family Company cannot be faulted when it comes to professionalism, knowledgeability, reliability and cost. I have recommended others and all have come away with the same impression. Service cannot be faulted in any way

I've used DJs on several occasions, but this is the first time with this car. The work was carried out on the day it was booked, with no problems that I am aware of. I'm no mechanic, DJs are my chosen experts and they've never let me down!

Have used DJ several times before, the most recent being for a service and MOT on our car. Chris is knowledgeable, always helpful and his team do a good job. They advise when additional work is required or advisable in the future and don't push you to get it done immediately. Charges are reasonable. Very pleased to recommend and will certainly continue to use them when needed.

This is my 3rd time using this garage. Each time the team have provided exceptional service, providing advice and being open to discuss options with repairs. I had been previously advised that parts need replacing and the team gave an honest and helpful assessment. Work is always carried out quickly and priced well. The added point is the customer service which is always on point. Example - warming up the car for me when collecting on a cold winters morning! Great job team!

I have been using this garage for last 10 years. The team are all totally processional and efficient. They always discuss with you the work required before going ahead with it. I have found them to be very competitive when it comes to pricing and speed of work carried out. As a female car owner with little knowledge of car mechanics I have always felt that they are honest and trustworthy. I am very happy to recommend this company to anyone looking for a great service.

I have been using DJ Garage Services Ltd. since 2004. The team led by Chris and Ray are amazing. Chris is professional and knowledgeable, there is no other garage I will use as they are so honest and trustworthy. My daughter has got her first car and there is no way I will let anyone else service her car. I will highly recommend, professional and reliable. Keep going and thank you for great service.
