Common questions about servicing, MOTs and repairs in Smethwick.

Where can I get an MOT near me in Smethwick?
ER Automotive on Cranford Street, Smethwick (B66 2RX) is a DVSA-approved MOT centre. Book online or call 0121 461 6097. We are open Monday to Friday, 09:00–18:00.
Is there a garage near me that does servicing and repairs?
Yes. We carry out interim, full and major services plus repairs, diagnostics, brakes, clutches and more for drivers in Smethwick, Hockley, West Bromwich, Oldbury and across Birmingham.
How often should I service my car?
Most manufacturers recommend a full service every 12 months or 12,000 miles. High-mileage drivers benefit from an interim service every 6 months, and a major service every 24 months covers the deeper items.
When is my MOT due?
A car needs its first MOT when it is three years old, then every year after that. You can check your due date with our free MOT checker, and you can book up to a month early without losing your renewal date.
What happens if my car fails its MOT?
You get a written list of failures and advisories. We quote for the repairs before doing anything, and once the work is approved and done we can retest the car, usually within 10 working days.
Do you work on all makes and models?
Yes. We service and repair most cars and light vans, including BMW, Audi, Mercedes, Volkswagen, Ford, Vauxhall, Toyota, Nissan, Kia and Land Rover, plus hybrids and electric vehicles.
Will servicing at an independent garage affect my warranty?
No. Your manufacturer warranty stays valid when the service follows the schedule and uses correct-spec parts and oils. We document the work and stamp your service book.
My engine warning light is on. Can you find out why?
Yes. We read the fault codes, check live data and test the parts involved so you pay for the actual fault rather than guesswork. If the light is flashing, stop driving and call us.
Do you give a quote before starting work?
Always. We inspect the car, explain what is needed and why, and give you a clear price. No work is carried out without your approval.
Do you carry out van MOTs and van servicing?
Yes. We test and service light commercial vans as well as cars, with brake, suspension and diesel emissions checks suited to vehicles that carry loads.
Can you replace my cambelt, clutch or turbo?
Yes. We handle bigger jobs including timing belts, clutches, gearboxes, turbos, head gaskets, and DPF and EGR work. We diagnose the fault first and explain your options before quoting.
How do I book with ER Automotive in Smethwick?
Book online in a couple of minutes, or call 0121 461 6097 and we will find a time that suits you. Tell us your registration and what the car is doing, and we will advise on the right service.
