Brett was so personable and reassuring from the outset. He went over and above what I was expecting from this service and I would highly recommend him to anyone. Purchasing a car in a different country is a stressful experience but Brett made it all plain sailing with his professionalism and attention to detail.

He was polite but I won't think he got capacity to diagnose vehicle correctly. Somethings were missed which my ordinary mechanic has picked up without attaching that fault diagnosis machine. Report was just normal. I was expecting everything to be checked and detailed report about engine repairs or faults. But report was full of condition of the vehicle. I understand that due to age of vehicle it has scratches and dents, but I paid or bought premium service to get all faults from engine. I appreciate that it contain condition of the car but I was more concern about condition of engine, which he failed to pick up. I believe he doesn't have proper tools to diagnose these faults. So I won't recommend him or click mechanic. I regret now I would have bought Aa inspection with few more quid on top. Read more

Reply from Brett:

Thank you for your feedback. I’m sorry you were unhappy with the outcome of the inspection.

The booking carried out was a ClickMechanic premium pre-purchase inspection, not a full strip-down engine diagnosis. I completed the required inspection process, including visual checks, road test, diagnostic scan and reporting of the faults and symptoms present at the time.

The vehicle was scanned using Ford diagnostic software and the relevant engine fault code present at the time was recorded and reported: P132B turbocharger/supercharger boost control performance. The vehicle was also noted to have oil coming from the exhaust/smoke on start-up, poor engine performance under load, oil leaks/contamination around the engine, coolant system concerns, engine noise/rattle, low-voltage related faults, inoperative air conditioning and no evidence provided to confirm wet belt/oil pump belt replacement.


Based on the inspection findings, the vehicle was clearly not reported as mechanically sound or as a clean purchase. The report highlighted multiple serious concerns and recommended further diagnosis/repair consideration before continuing with the vehicle.

A pre-purchase inspection is intended to identify and report visible/testable faults and concerns at the time of inspection. It does not include engine dismantling, internal engine diagnosis or confirming the exact internal cause of oil burning without further diagnostic work. The findings reported were significant and showed the vehicle had major mechanical concerns.

Not happy, Brett was unable to complete the job. Upon returning my car only after 3 hours ( 45 minutes to his garage and 45 mins to return the car) 1 .30 hours at his workshop is hard to believe that he had time to do a proper job. Wasted £592.00. Never again.

Reply from Brett:

I’m sorry you feel unhappy with the outcome.

The vehicle was booked in for an automatic transmission service and diagnostic inspection due to reverse gear not engaging. The gearbox oil service was completed using the correct specification fluid, and the diagnostic inspection confirmed transmission-related fault codes were still present after the service.

Unfortunately, a gearbox oil service cannot repair an internal gearbox fault. The diagnostic result showed that the vehicle requires further specialist gearbox repair, either through Ford or an automatic gearbox specialist.

I understand this is frustrating, but the work booked was carried out and the correct next step was advised.

Brett did a full inspection on my car after losing faith with the after sales team where I bought it from. He was knowledgeable, worked efficiently and was open and honest. Would definitely recommend and use again.
