What brake work do you do?

We check and replace:

brake pads
brake discs
brake calipers
brake fluid

German cars and Jaguar Land Rover are our focus, including BMW, MINI, Mercedes-Benz, Audi and VW. If your car is another make, ask us when you enquire.

When should I have my brakes checked?

If your brakes feel or sound different from usual, or a brake warning light comes on, book a check. You can also ask us to look at the brakes when the car comes in for a service or MOT.

If the MOT finds a problem with the brakes, we explain it and give you a written quote before any repair.

How do you decide what needs replacing?

We inspect the brakes and photograph any worn parts. Then:

We show you the photos.
You get a written quote for each item.
You decide what is replaced.
We fit nothing until you have given your written approval.

We recommend replacing the parts the inspection shows to be worn, and we show you the evidence for each one.

Why do you photograph worn parts?

Photographic proof is part of our promise on every job. It lets you see the condition of a part for yourself before you decide whether to have it replaced.

What if a brake warning light is on?

A warning light can have more than one cause. We find out why it is on before recommending a repair. For warning lights and faults that need testing, see car diagnostics.

What happens after the brakes are fitted?

We check the brakes after the work, with a test drive where appropriate. There is no surprise invoice: you agree the work in writing before we do it.

How much does brake work cost?

Brakes are one of the quick jobs we price competitively, alongside tyres, batteries and exhausts. Request a quote with your registration and tell us what you have noticed. You get a written quote before any work starts.

Can I wait while the work is done?

Ask when you book whether your job can be done while you wait. Our centre has three customer waiting areas, a co-working space, a multi-faith prayer room and a quiet room.

If you need a courtesy car, or collection and delivery, ask when you book.

Reverie Autocare is an independent specialist and is not affiliated with or endorsed by BMW, MINI, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Volkswagen, Jaguar Land Rover or Land Rover.
