From the Model 3 to the Model X, if you own a Tesla you are driving one of the most advanced cars on the road, so it is no wonder you are particular about who looks after it.
Caring for prestige and performance cars is a way of life for us. Our EV-trained team treats your Tesla with the attention it deserves, using OE or OE-equivalent parts and following Tesla maintenance guidance to the letter, typically for less than main service centre prices and without affecting your warranty.
We look after the full Tesla range with servicing & repair, auto electrical diagnostics, 4-wheel alignment, brakes and tyres. We follow Tesla maintenance guidance and use OE or OE-equivalent parts, so your warranty stays intact and your Tesla keeps performing as it should.
Teslas are superbly engineered, but like any car they have wear items and known weak points. Here is some of what we see day to day across the range, and how we keep these cars healthy.
The Model 3 and Model Y are well known for a knock or squeak from the front suspension, usually the upper control arm, where the ball joint seals let moisture in and the joint corrodes. We diagnose worn arms and bushes and replace them with correct parts and torque settings, and we check the front lower control arm fasteners covered by Tesla’s own bulletins. On the Model S and Model X, the air suspension air springs perish over time and the compressor and valve block can fail from moisture and corrosion, leaving the car sitting low or uneven. We trace air leaks, replace air springs, compressors and valve blocks, and recalibrate ride height.
Because regenerative braking does most of the slowing, a Tesla’s friction brakes are used lightly, so the calipers and guide pins are prone to seizing from corrosion, especially through salted winters. Left alone this causes a clunk as the pads release, uneven pad wear and a sticking caliper that overheats. We clean and lubricate calipers, free off seized guide pins, and replace pads and discs as needed, the annual service Tesla itself recommends in areas where roads are gritted.
The low-voltage battery, lead-acid on earlier cars and a lithium unit on later ones, powers the screens, lights and door handles and is a common cause of no-start and warning faults when it weakens. We load test and replace it, and carry out HV-safe diagnostics for charging concerns, contactor and onboard charger warnings, and the screen and software-related electrical faults that can leave features misbehaving.
Instant torque and the weight of the battery mean Teslas can wear tyres quickly, often unevenly, if the geometry is even slightly out. We fit EV-rated tyres with the correct load and speed ratings, rotate them to even out wear, and carry out full 4-wheel alignment to protect tyre life, stability and range.
On a Tesla the climate system does more than keep you comfortable, it also helps manage battery temperature, and the later cars use a heat pump for efficiency. We check air-conditioning and heat pump performance, detect leaks, and carry out refrigerant and desiccant service so cabin comfort and battery cooling both stay healthy.
We offer a FREE, no-obligation EV health check, ideal for checking brakes, tyres, suspension, cooling and charging hardware. Clear advice with no pressure.
