Battery testing in Manchester

“I called for an MOT and the response was efficient. Unlike the three other garages I had called that day for a test. Woodlands Garage was the cheapest in price to as it was at 35 pounds for a MOT test. I was offered an appointment for the same day and was told they work on an hourly slot again unlike the other garages which had weeks wait before a test could be booked. I opted for the next day instead. My car was an unfortunately a fail but it was what I was already expecting to be honest. Failed on the front brake pads and an Anti roll bar joint both wear and tear products. Once again I was giving an efficient slot and a very reasonable quote. my work was completed same day and woodlands garage charged me a very fair price to be quite frank very cheap as the garage mechanic had bought premium brake pads for my repair which showed me great trust and someone who values his work as well as the customer. I would have been happy with a cheap brake pads for the price I got charged as it was so cheap. Any ways retest done straight after repair mot passed and the car is driving like a dream I would strongly recommend this garage for anyone in Manchester as in a good location too. Thank you woodlands mechanics great job.”

“Came Down last week to have 2 tyres fitted and was greeted by a lovely Lady and Gentleman I believe they were called Blanka and Tom. They offered me somewhere to sit and a lovely hot drink whilst I waited for the technician Andre to fit my tyres. Was in and out in less than an hour. Absolutely Brilliant service would highly recommend coming to this autocentre and I will definitely be using them more often in the future. Thank you and what a wonderful Team you guys are.”

“I had a really positive experience thanks to Chris at Halfords. He was extremely helpful in moving my MOT forward to fit around my working pattern, which made things so much easier for me. He also provided lots of reassurance that my car would be properly looked after, which really put my mind at ease. Chris was patient and understanding, even taking the time to answer my many phone calls and always offering reassurance. Fantastic customer service – I’d definitely recommend!”

“Had my clutch and gearbox repaired from Suran he was amazing great work and such good customer service. Was a very smooth process he called me and explained to me the problems the car was fixed so quick in 2 days the job was done. Definitely would recommend using Nigel Langs and Suran is amazing he knows what he’s doing not like many other garages. He drove my car and knew what the fault was straight away. Thank you for your amazing service and I will definitely be back again to have more work done on my car in the future”

“This review is for Mr. Neal. Thank you for everything he did. He helped me tremendously to communicate with the insurance company and the person who sold me the car even though I didn't understand English. I think this was friendliness in addition to professionalism. Of course, this shop is professional in car repair services. Professional personnel and technology are trustworthy. If you don't know which car repair shop to choose for service, I recommend this one. WEI”

“Great service. My battery was flat and they came to my home (very local to their shop) and replaced the battery in minutes. Extremely helpful and knowledgeable. Won't hesitate to use them again and would highly recommend them. Thanks guys.”

“What a great garage. Whole family use this place and we couldn’t recommend them highly enough. Will not be beaten on price and quality of the repairs. Brilliant gentleman named Neville always makes sure I am back on the road asap when my car has any issues. Would highly recommend him and definitely think he needs a promotion! Thanks guys!”

“As always professional, considerate and competent . They genuinely appear to enjoy both their work and their interaction with customers . Strongly recommend.”

“Always great customer service, giving updates throughout repair/service. Added bonus is the Motoring Club discount which is really good value for £40 giving free MOT and discount off any work/parts or anything purchased from any of their branches, what's not to like.”

“On behalf of my father in law Frank H. He has been using this garage for what must be over a quarter of a century. Reliable , trustworthy and sorted each and every car issue/MOT/Service out to a professional standard. Anita has taken away all the stress with the organisation of the MOT whilst he is in hospital, going above and beyond. If you are looking for a garage that gives you peace of mind then take your vehicle here.”

“Excellent work at reasonable price..really happy to use this garage…highly recommend”

“Great service as always, kept up to date at all times, and any services/requirements needed for my MOT and car explained clearly by Steve on the phone. Thank you!”

“Excellent service and great work carried out on my car. Thanks very much!”

“Brilliant guys, especially John, would totally trust. Been using them for years on different cars and done great jobs. Very reasonably priced and will go out of way to help and advice.”

“Took car for mot, quick turn around. No complaints, will take my car back there. Good prices as well”

“A wonderful garage, mechanical knowledge is exemplary, affordable and reliable thank you for your great service”

“I had occasion to call in for an automotive twhouch up paint but did not know the code number. Unfortunately I did not get the chaps name at the oldham branch. He was VERY helpful and after a while came away with the correct paint. This was last week on Wed.(I think).Very impressed. P.Barber”

“Always quite scary getting an MOT and service done but all of the staff communicated any possible issues throughout the process. The interactions felt genuine and the overall message was that they wanted my car to be safe. It felt like a thorough job was done and hopefully it will help the longevity of my current car. Very pleasant experience even though I had to spend more than I thought.”

“I got a puncture on my vehicle and despite the short notice I was able to bring my vehicle in and get it fixed. All 3 members of staff were friendly, polite, informed me of what was needed and got my tyre fixed quickly.”

“I have used them a few times and their service has always been the best. Not like your normal garages where they don't even acknowledge your presence. What alot of garages lack is honesty and I can say they've always been honest and genuine. Definitely the best garage around Oldham!”

“Have been a couple of times now for an MOT and repair and there’s a reason why these guys are busy. Excellent customer service on both occasions and no time wasted. They are an asset to the local community :)”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ – Lifesaver Service! Broke down on the motorway when my car lost all its coolant. Took it to the garage and Corey quickly figured out the problem — a cracked thermostat pipe. They ordered the part straight away and had it fixed the same day. What really impressed me was the extra effort — they close at 4pm but told me to carry on with my plans and just call when I was done, and they’d come back to let me collect my car. That’s proper above-and-beyond service. Thanks again Corey, you really saved my day!”

“Excellent service; rang on Thursday evening after being quoted 800 for a job elsewhere, was able to have a same day repair on Friday with the same quoted job costing 250. Great value for money and lovely guys. Would highly recommend.”

“Class 7 (large van) MOT test. Faultless friendly polite and professional service delivered in an attitude free timely manner from a spacious garage impeccably well managed, clean and tidy. Steve obviously knows his stuff. No suggestion of overcharging. 100% 5 star service.”

“Had an issue with ‘defeating’ an airbag light (with additional seatbelt warning) on a relatively new Citroen Relay van converted into Campervan with changed seats. Been let down twice with people who could say they could sort it ‘no problem’. David came out twice to sort quickly, and then was tenacious in working through the issues (looking up info and working out what was needed) with newer vans (not just a case of putting in a resistor) with changed seats. Very pleased with tenaciousness. Thankyou”

“Great service, great price with the sale on air con regas. Turned up and was advised around ~2 hours due to other customer but Infact a little over an hour later and my vehicle was ready, now blowing ice cold! Very friendly, professionals and would definitely use again.”

“Fantastic Service and always happy to help. Will recommend them highly.”

“Contacted SRG my Porsche 997 had a cracked quite badly damaged front bumper. All others said they could not repair, it was a bodyshop repair only. SRG carried out the project to a very high standard. I am happy. Recommended”

“Reliable and great service - good communication and always feel looked after by Austin, Mark and the lads.”

“Very good service. Was very professional & knowledgeable. Had the parts needed when no one else did, also fitted which was a god send. Thank you”
