“First time using clickmechanic ! On my Merc A class 2020,I had a new engine light warning,initially I went to one of the renowned Mercedes specialists in the town and ran a diagnostics for 100 pounds ,I was informed that one of my glow plugs had an issue and that I needed to replace all four of the glow plugs along with glow plug relay and quoted me 794 pounds including labour and parts.I uploaded the full diagnostics report to ChatGpt as I don't know much about repairs,it specifically mentioned that there was no diagnostic detail to state that my glow plug relay was at fault and it was just one my glow plugs that had a minor fault.Fast forward,found clickmechanic- was assigned Mr.Ali from deal drive motors from Middlesbrough as my mechanic.I ignored the Ai report and did not mention it to him.The car was duly picked on time , initially quoted 550 pounds for the whole work, however I was informed that my glow plug relay had no issues ,only one of my glow plug had carbon remains, advised changing all four and boom he returned back 300 pounds and charged me only 256 pounds.Car was delivered back on time.Its been couple of weeks as Im writing this and its his honesty and work ethics that still shines bright along with his workmanship.Absolutely happy.”

“What an absolute gem of a mechanic.

Prior communication to let me know a rough eta the day before and was perfectly on time to.

Really friendly and easy to chat with and didn’t mind me watching, explain what he was doing and answering my questions (as I’m interested in learning my car)

Unfortunately my car was a bit awkward and definitely made him work but he kept smiling and joking with me throughout which was really appreciated as I was a bit concerned my car wouldn’t be able to be fixed but reassured me it was all okay.

He cleaned up the car parts and wiped away excess oil and grim for me on the parts so that if I go to work on it I wouldn’t get covered.

Cleared up outside fantastic and wouldn’t even notice he had been.

Even helped loosing a stuck bonnet latch”

“Gordon was brilliant, having had some failed attempts at using RAC mechanics, I turned to click mechanic and found Gordon. He communicated when he was coming, turned up on time and talked through what the issue was. He then promptly changed all the Glowplugs on my Jeep, and checked the diagnostics. Brilliant service would highly recommend Gordon.”
