Davlyn Fleet Maintenance Ltd

4.7/5

Dear Customers Davlyn Fleet Maintenance is Registered in Wales at 2 Masefield Way, CF37 5HE. We have a site at LE7 9DQ where we can do major jobs that need a ramp. At Davlyn we work on passenger-carrying vehicles, cars, light commercial vehicles, and heavy goods vehicles including light and heavy plant machinery. We have experience dating back to 1991. We operate this business based on THREE very paramount values to us and these are: 1. To value our customers and ensure that they are always satisfied with our services 2. To value our customers and ensure that they are always satisfied with our services 3. To value our customers and ensure that they are always satisfied with our services This is therefore evident that even though we are a business, we do not believe that we are doing what we do ENTIRELY for money. We value our customers' satisfaction. They are the basis of our growth. Where we have to lose to meet our customers at their reasonable satisfaction point, we would have to do that. We are not the cheapest garage but we also believe in that customers get what they pay for. There are many garages out there that may regard themselves as cheaper than us but we do not prioritize saving our customers money, our priority is to satisfy our customers by doing the job, doing it right safeguarding them from the unnecessary resultant costs of rectifying rushed jobs done incompetently. We do not claim that jobs will never go wrong but the difference between us and other competitors is that we PHYSICALLY take full responsibility when things go wrong from our end. Many service providers take responsibility HERE but not on the ground. We believe that is why customers should come to us for their work.

Frequently asked questions about clutch repairs and replacement

The price of a new clutch depends on your car's manufacturer, model, and the type of clutch it needs. We understand cost is important to you, so we'll always provide a transparent quote upfront.

Look out for these signs:

  • Trouble shifting gears.
  • A slipping clutch (revs increase but speed doesn't).
  • A pedal that sticks, vibrates, or feels spongy.
  • Strange noises when pressing the clutch.

Experiencing any of these? It might be time for a check-up.

It's best not to. A faulty clutch can lead to further damage and might even be unsafe. If you're noticing issues, get in touch with us to sort it out sooner rather than later.

Booking is easy, just visit our website. We'll need to know a bit about your car to give you an accurate quote. Once you're happy, we'll find a time that suits you to get the work done.

Yes, all our clutch repairs have a warranty to cover parts and labour. We'll give you all the details, including the duration and terms when you book your repair.

Most clutch repairs take between 5 to 8 hours, depending on your car's specifics. We'll let you know how long we expect the work to take when you book your repair.

Absolutely. Here are a few tips:

  • Avoid riding the clutch.
  • Shift gears smoothly.
  • Don't use the clutch to hold the car on a hill.
  • Keep your foot off the clutch unless you're shifting.

Good habits can significantly extend your clutch's lifespan.

A clutch repair typically includes replacing the clutch disc, pressure plate, and release bearing. Depending on your car, it might also involve replacing the flywheel or adjusting the clutch cable or hydraulic system.

Several factors affect the cost, including the type of clutch your car needs and the complexity of the replacement work. Some cars require more labour to access and replace the clutch, which can increase the cost.

If we spot anything else during the clutch repair, we'll let you know right away. We provide a full transparent quote for any additional recommended work and will only proceed with your approval. We're here to answer any more questions you might have and ensure your clutch repair goes as smoothly as possible and you’re back on the road in no time.
