Clover Autos provided me with excellent service in fixing two long standing problems on my Audi A4 Salon. I had spent a frustrating 18 months and a small fortune with my local Audi dealer. They failed to fix either of the problems and even gave me the impression they didn’t really understand them. Clover Autos on the other hand diagnosed both faults within a couple of hours and had them both fixed after receiving the replacement parts. My Audi A4 now drives like a new car. Very, very happy. Thank you, Dave.

I phoned clovers as I had a lumpy tick over on my van I couldn’t use the van as worried I would breakdown I spoke to David and he said to bring the van in and he would squeeze me in to find the problem. I left my van with him he then phoned me the next day letting me know what the problem was and cost of repairs. The work was carried out the next day as he knew I couldn’t work without the van I also had a knocking noise from the back he found the problem as another garage couldn’t When picking the van up the bill was slightly less than quoted and he even showed me the parts that were replaced. great service and trustworthy people

This is the 2nd year Clover Autos have MOT'd my car and both times they have been amazing (better than the well known dealer i normally take my car!). Whats re-assuring about Clover is you can tell how much pride they take in thier work from the moment you walk into reception as you can see all the certficate of excellance on the wall! I was also shown exactly what needed replacing to get my car through the MOT (again re-asurring). During the process i was kept up-to-date even resonding to an email at 0722 in the morning to let me know the process for my retest. All in all as always a great experiance with Clover which i would recommend to anyone.

Brake fluid change

Brake fluid change recommended by Audi Franchise dealer. Quoted a very reasonable price, completed work on time and at agreed cost. All very straightforward and efficient. It's good to support a local business. They also updated the central Audi service record with the work completed. Very pleased and I will use them again.

Cam belt and MOT and some additional work found along the way. I was expecting it to take longer, but the work was completed in a day. The cost was higher than originally discussed, but Clover phoned and discussed the additional costs before going ahead with the work. They also showed me the additional worn out parts when I collected my car. I first used Clover 2 years ago, I was looking for a local garage with a courtesy car as I have a long drive to work. Clover advertised as a VW specialist. An initial visit to them, I received a friendly welcome and viewed a clean and tidy workshop with an interesting range of cars being worked on. This was my 5th visit to them (due to my higher mileage) and still a very happy customer.

Clover Autos were recommended by a friend and I’ve only taken my VW Caddy to them for 4yrs now. Always happy with the work done - they let you know what they’re going to do and then do it in good time. I find their front of house chap helpful, approachable & accommodating. I trust them with my pride & joy and recommend them to all.

Loss of power caused by faulty throttle potentiometer

I dropped my car off and after explaining the loss of power, was greeted by Ronnie, the owner, who was an extremely polite, professional and understanding man. He treated me as if I was his only customer and asked me lots of questions to help him better understand the problem. He explained a thorough diagnosis would be conducted using a computer and visual inspection to ascertain the problem. He loaned me a hire car(no charge!) and explained he would contact me ASAP with his findings, which he did. The problem was caused by a faulty throttle potentiometer which was changed and the old parts were left in a box in my car; they like to let customers see which parts have been changed. Again Ronnie was extremely polite, professional and not rushed when explaining everything they did in detail. I unhesitatingly recommend Clover Autos for being a breath of fresh air in delivering outstanding customer service in an honest, polite, and professional manner. As a teacher with over 10 years experience delivering customer service courses, I speak with some authority on the subject. Bravo Clover Autos, I will not allow any other mechanic to work on my car, but you.

Went to Clover Autos with a problem on my ABS, they were so good, kept me informed at all points, and fixed it, whilst keeping the cost down. I will always take my car here for further services and repairs, they do a great job, while being honest, pleasant and not ripping you off.
