Dan D
I did my work experiance in a garage in hampton called J&P motors and worked there while I did my apprenticeship at Kingston University for three years to earn my qualifications. I then went to work for a garage in fulwell for around four years where a had furthered my experience on a wider range of vehicles and became a MOT tester. I then moved to London and Surrey cars in Kingston upon Thames for a further three years where I was workshop controller/foreman then the final garage I worked at was boxer motor works in ashford. I settled for eight or so years working for AA, I left because I felt the time was right to be my own boss which has always been my goal. I have now been self employed for around 2-3 yrs as a mobile vehicle technician and now have workshop so I can carry out more involved jobs that are more than a roadside repairs. I have very good knowledge of all makes plus have up to date diagnostics, tools and vehicle data. Read more

I booked Dan a week in advance, at a time that was convenient for me to pass over the keys. I wasn't expecting such a quick turn around to replace the starter motor, but as true as his word, he was done within the hour.

Just to check the battery, paying 60 pounds was something I wouldn't recommend any one. Though I agree the mechanic was friendly and knowledgable. I This took only 10 minutes of the mechanic time. I am personally disappointed with the decision I made. I should have checked with the local mechanic first.

Reply from Dan:

You knew the charge of the diagnostic inspection at the time of booking it regardless of of the time taken I’ve carried out a full diagnostic inspection of the battery and charging system... and found the battery to be faulty that halfords told you was fine. I’d recommend you take this matter up with halfords that misdiagnosed your vehicle. I have invested much money in equipment to cut diagnostic/repair times I can not then charge less to the customer.

Many thanks dan
