Brake Inspection by LDR Auto Car Care Ltd

During a brake replacement at LDR Auto Car Care Ltd, our highly trained technicians use advanced diagnostic equipment to accurately assess and address any issues before installation, guaranteeing that your new brakes will be both responsive and reliable.

Even if you haven’t noticed any symptoms of underperforming brakes, remember that brake disks, drums, callipers, and pads are subject to continual wear and tear. Stay on top of preventative maintenance by scheduling brake servicing once a year or every 12,000 miles.

"Really good service and very competitive pricing. Provided detailed videos of everything which is really helpful and leaves you feeling that everything is being taken care of and done to a high standard. Seem like a good bunch of lads that are honest with you, which is all you want from a mechanic. First time using LDR and i 100% will be using them again."

"Absolutely top service, from start to finish. So thorough; above and beyond. As a woman booking in my car for a service, I’ve had bad experiences going to garages, but I felt totally relaxed and comfortable and I didn’t have to question anything. This is my new car care garage for life!"

Kat Jay - September 30, 2025

"Love this new local friendly garage. Lee (the owner) couldn’t be nicer. Genuinely helpful and won’t take your money until he’s sure about what’s wrong and that he believes he can fix it. I can’t fault him and highly recommend him. Not at all condescending either with female customers. You get a video showing what he’s found before a phone call to discuss what the options are and the costs."
