About Autocheck in Herne Bay

Autocheck Herne Bay is a newly opened independent garage offering MOTs, servicing, tyres, diagnostics, and repairs on most makes and models. We’re the sister site to our long-established Faversham garage, and we’ve come to Herne Bay to give local drivers the same dependable service our customers there have relied on for years.

A new garage with experience behind it

Opening a new site doesn’t mean starting from scratch. The way we work comes straight from Faversham, where customers keep coming back because they know their car will be looked after properly and the work will be explained honestly. That reputation took years to earn, and we intend to build the same one here.

Our ethos is to get every car right the first time and finish the work to an exceptional standard. Service with a smile might sound old-fashioned, but it’s something the whole team takes seriously.

Our workshop

The building has been fully renovated and fitted with new ramps, giving our technicians a clean, well-organised space to work in. We use Snap-on tools alongside Zeus and Autel diagnostic equipment, which means fault codes are read and interpreted accurately across a wide range of manufacturers rather than guessed at.

Air conditioning is covered too, as we can recharge systems using the different refrigerant gases found in both older and newer cars. Electric and hybrid vehicles are welcome alongside petrol and diesel models.

MOT testing

There are two MOT bays on site. One is a Class 4 bay, covering most cars and smaller vans, and the other is a Class 7 bay for larger vans weighing between 3,000kg and 3,500kg. That makes us a practical choice for tradespeople and small businesses as well as private motorists.

Easy to reach from across the area

You’ll find us around a mile and a half from the town centre, very close to the A299 Thanet Way. The journey is straightforward whether you’re coming from Whitstable, Herne, the outskirts of Canterbury, or one of the surrounding villages.

If getting to us is tricky, we can collect your car and return it once the work is done, provided you’re within about five miles of the garage. This is subject to availability, so it’s worth mentioning when you book.

Book with Autocheck

Booking takes a couple of minutes with our online booking system. Choose the service you need and a time that works for you, and we’ll take care of the rest. If you’re not sure what your car needs, or have any questions, feel free to give us a call on 01227 952952.
