Auto -Serve Garages

Auto-serve Garages in West Bromwich was established in 1990 by our owner Steve Glaze. The business started out in a small 1,500 square foot rented premises where Steve and a few technicians coped with around four to six cars per day, without an MOT centre or car bodyshop. Through time the business and its client base expanded and developed. Car repairs in West Bromwich and car service in Oldbury grew into van repairs in Birmingham and commercial fleet service in the West Midlands. Tyres in West Bromwich and exhausts in Oldbury grew into engine diagnostics in Birmingham and mechanical van repairs in the West Midlands. And bumper repair in West Bromwich or windscreen replacement in Oldbury turned into a smart bumper repairs in Birmingham and car recovery in the West Midlands.

Frequently asked questions on wheel alignment

How do I know if my wheels need to be aligned?

Look out for uneven tyre wear, your car pulling to one side, a crooked steering wheel, vibrations, or squealing tyres.

Can I drive if my alignment is bad?

Yes, but it’s not safe. Bad alignment can lead to uneven tyre wear, lower fuel efficiency, and poor handling.

How long does an alignment take?

A typical alignment takes about an hour, but it might vary based on your vehicle and the service needed.

Can a bad alignment cause vibration?

Definitely. Misaligned wheels can make your steering wheel or entire car shake, especially at higher speeds.

How often should I get my wheels aligned?

Check your alignment every 6,000 miles or every six months. Also, get it checked if you notice for signs of misalignment or after hitting a big pothole or curb.
