Services
SH Auto was established in 1981, and have now been serving Bromsgrove, Redditch and the surrounding areas for over 30 years. The management team at SH Auto comprises of Jim and wife Margaret, son Adrian, daughter Mandy and son-in-law, Richard. This family run business ensures that all customers are given excellent service and this is confirmed by the amount of repeat business that has been received over many years.
The most important maintenance item in your engine is the cambelt (also know as Timing Belt). The cambelt's job is to keep the camshaft and crank timed as it should be. Over time the cambelt will stretch and as a result the engine timing may get delayed. To avoid nasty surprises, you should have your cambelt checked annually.
The vast majority of new cars have air conditioning as a standard feature. These systems have become highly efficient and reliable, but everything breaks down eventually without proper care.

We offer all the services your air conditioning system needs to continue running safely and efficiently - anything from inspection, coolant recharging using the most up to date and environmentally friendly refridgerants, and anti-bacterial cleaning to a leak test, repair or replacement of the system.
The very first job any vehicle has is to start - preferably on the first try. However, an older or poorly maintained battery can struggle to do that in the best of conditions, let alone in cold weather or under the heavy drain of today's stereos, sat navs and accessories. Let us test your battery and we can tell you if it needs replacement.
At SH Auto we offer both performance testing and in-depth inspection of your vehicle's brakes. Your brakes are not just vital safety components, they are key to maintaining proper performance (not to mention passing your MOT). Any faulty parts found can be repaired or replaced with high quality components, ensuring both the safety and maximum performance of your vehicle for years to come.

The worst customer service I've ever experienced. When my car broke down it was recovered to SH Autos as recommended by the AA.
The only contact they had with me was for a minimum of £140+vat to do a diagnostic test which had already been done by the AA, SH Autos already had the AA report.
I eventually removed my car after it had been with them for twelve days, without them making any effort to repair the problem..
They informed me they had vehicles that had been with them longer than mine but they were still taking in work from the AA knowing they were unable to do any work on those vehicles

Good customer service and got the job done but a bit on the expensive side. 3 hours to do one coil spring is a bit excessive.
Service: Steering/Suspension

Absolutely brilliant at what they do.
I own a 2005 focus which is constantly needing attention. I drive it in nackered and it comes out perfect, every time and in most cases within the day. I Have had complex & easy issues and they have always had a solution. Spot on.

Absolutely fabulous company who helped us out on Friday as our car broke on the m5, all the staff were very helpful and couldn't do enough for us. Price was fantastic and we were back on the road in an hour. If we lived closer this garage would be out 1st choice every time. Keep up the good work and thank you.
