Very disappointing experience - not the professional diagnostic promised…read more I booked my car in with VolcanMotors for what was clearly advertised and verbally confirmed as a professional and detailed diagnostic. When I made the booking, the owner assured me they would carry out proper due diligence and identify the root cause of the issue. Unfortunately, the experience fell far short of that expectation. After a few hours, I was told the "diagnostic" had been done using a diagnostic machine only, with no meaningful additional investigation. There was no visual inspection, no deeper fault-finding, and no attempt to properly validate the issue. They simply repeated the same fault code information I was already aware of. Based on this very superficial check, they quickly recommended a major and expensive repair -- without demonstrating any thorough analysis to justify it. When I asked reasonable questions to understand their process and reasoning, I was met with a rude and dismissive attitude rather than a professional explanation. What's most disappointing is not just the lack of diagnosis, but the lack of honesty and professionalism. If the garage does not have the expertise, time, or willingness to properly diagnose a vehicle, it would be far more professional to say so upfront rather than provide a costly recommendation based on a basic scan. I trusted them to treat both the job and me as a customer with professionalism and respect. Instead, I received neither. I would not return to this garage and would not trust their diagnostic conclusions.

Awful experience - charged me for an MOT and they failed my car on the rear shock absorbers saying…read moreRepair immediately (major defects) "Shock absorbers has a serious fluid leak Rear (Both sides)" and then they quoted me £566 to repair this so-called major defect. Turns out after an independent inspection that there was nothing at all wrong with the rear shock absorbers. Unfortunately, I had to pay another fee to get the car re MOT'd at a different MOT Centre and guess what... yes it passed without any issues relating to the rear shock absorbers. I regret having any dealings with this company but glad I didn't have to pay an additional £566 to them for a fake repair. Be very careful if you use this outfit. I would suggest getting MOT failures double checked elsewhere before committing to paying this company for repairs that might not be necessary.
