Electric and hybrid vehicles still need servicing. Brake fluid, coolant, cabin filters, tyres, suspension and the twelve-volt battery all wear the same way they always did.

EV brakes wear less because regenerative braking does most of the work, but that brings its own problem: discs and calipers corrode from underuse. We strip and lubricate calipers as part of an EV service rather than waiting for one to seize.

We hold IMI Level 3 high-voltage qualifications, which is what you need to isolate the system and work on it safely. A battery health report tells you the remaining capacity against the original — useful if you are thinking of selling.

Before you book

Check what your car is already due.

The reg check tells you when the MOT runs out and what the last tester flagged. It often changes what you actually need booking in for.
