Had a silver service on my ford focus 1.5 st line x 15/7/2025 and I didn't get a paper readout of said service as to what had been carried out, also I had to remove drivers side carpet and clean it due to mechanics dirty feet and I also had to clean drivers side door card and handle and armrest due to mechanics dirty hands.The mechanic did not reset the oil life and as I left I asked if he'd filled out the service book which he hadn't and went off to do so,all these issues may sound trivial but I would expect better from a large company with so much competition around hence I would not use protyre again due to poor quality service.

Able to book my van in swiftly at a time which suited me. They started work and finished far earlier than I anticipated which was a great bonus.

Good service

First thing Monday morning I dropped in for a puncture repair and after a short wait they dealt with there and then, I was expecting to have to come back later or have a long wait. Bob on.

Battery replacement caused problems

When I took my car to Protyre to have a new battery fitted there were no warning lights showing. After the new battery was fitted my car wouldn’t start. Staff said a fuse had blown !!! I gave them my pack of fused and they replaced it. The car then started and I drove off. Every time I started the car after that a warning came up “Engine fault. Repair needed”. The service light also stayed on and I couldn’t cancel it (normally it’s very easy to cancel it and takes about 10 seconds). I had to take my car to a garage to have it put on a diagnostic test and all the faults were cleared after a second fuse was replaced. Obviously this fuse had also blown when the battery was replaced.
