As usual a great team and well looked after. The guys down there are always friendly and take on board what I need and don't give me any issues or fob me off.

Wouldn't recommend for MOT. Took my Van in for an MOT which it failed. I was then told that I had 10 days to bring it back for a free retest which they could fit in when the works done. I booked it in the garage straight away and the work was done a week later. I then tried to book it in for the Retest but couldn't get hold of anyone for a couple days. Someone then rang me back and said they could book me in 5 days later which would put me out of the 10 day window but they said that they would do the the Retest for free because they weren't able to fit me in. I then turned up on the day and they said I would need to pay the full amount again for an MOT because it's out of the 10 day window. I explained that I phoned up about this and was told they would do it free. They just denied that anyone said that and said I need to pay the full amount or take it somewhere else. I complained but had no choice as I was planning on going away and have already pushed leaving back by a week for the MOT which is frustrating because if I knew they'd charge me again I would of booked it in sooner somewhere else. In the end they charged me £30 but I don't understand why they didn't keep to there word and do it for free. They also record there phone calls so they could just listen back to my call with them to hear what was agreed.

Booked my car in here based on the advertised opening hours (close 6pm) so I could collect after work. I took my car in first thing and confirmed I'd pick up by 6 to be told the opening hours were incorrect. They refused to hang on or drop the key off to me which meant I'd be without a car all weekend. A week later and they still haven't bothered correcting the opening hours

Recommend by a friend and they took on my Transit van where another garage had failed me. Sorted out my leaking exhaust to turbo manifold where the studs were stripped, sorted the EGR valve, fitted a new starter motor and did an engine re-map. Can?t fault these guys! Work completed as discussed pretty well to the day they said it would be completed by and really easy, extremely knowledgeable and helpful guys to deal with!Would have absolutely no issue recommending them for any maintenance or repairs to you vehicle! ??????????Thank you again for your help sorting out the issues with my van ?Services: Exhaust

Driving down to Devon from Kent and had some mechanical issues. Tried a few local garages, but they couldn?t fit me in for at least a week. Phoned RAC, who recommended JK and they got me in the next day. Really nice bunch of guys, fixed the issue with no fuss and also picked up on a couple of other problems. Very helpful and would recommend to anyone.Service: Auto brake repair

Used JK Auto-Tek this week for the first time. Managed to fit me in for 2 new tyres and an mot at quite short notice. The place is a little out of the way but they were very polite, professional and helpful. Just somehow got a good vibe about them which I don't always get with garages. Will definitely use againService: Tires

On our way to holiday in Barnstaple, my sisters car broke down on the motorway around 3pm. My sister finally reached our destination at 1am.The AA had left the car at a local garage who rang on the Monday to say they couldn't do. I searched Google for local garages and fortunately found JK AUTO-TEK.They were so understanding and thoughtful. They collected the car from the other garage and analysed the clutch problem and fixed the car. They also replaced some bolts that had worn and informed my sister of an issue that she needed to address before the M.O.T. was due.The car ran smoothly all the way home which was a great relief.They were a pleasure to deal with and I would recommend them. I wish the garage was close to my home but sadly being almost 300 miles away, it is not an option to have them as my local garageService: General repairs & maintenance

Fast and professional response to request for two new Landrover Discovery Key to be cut and fobs coded which was done on site at our home in Barnstaple. Secondly, a visit to their yard to fix central locking and window issues along with a coolant leakage problem. James and Gareth went above and beyond to fix a subsequent battery problem and get us back on the road. Always difficult to know who to trust in the motor game but these guys proved that they genuinely care about doing a good job and their customer care is second to none. Would not hesitate to recommend.Services: Car digital & remote key reprogramming

Had a problem with my car for the past 2 years but turned away from many other garages and told there's not an issue. Took my car to JK AUTO TEK for what I assumed was an unrelated problem and they managed to figure out what the issue was and finally fixed the problem. Kept me updated the whole time and very reasonable pricing!

Whilst en-route to Devon, there was bad noises from rear wheel. The RAC identified the problem with the handbrake and said okay to continue the journey but don?t use the handbrake. They suggested JK Auto-Tek who I rang first thing this morning. Within an hour they had a price to rectify the problem and on giving them permission they completed the job that day. Outstanding service! I just wish they were my local garage as I would use them for all my car maintenance. Many thanks.
