Regular car servicing is one of the most important actions you can take to keep you and your family safe on the roads.
A car service in Northampton greatly reduces the risk of future repairs and keeps your vehicle running at its best for longer.
Since the 1960s, our family – the Hemming Family – have been keeping the cars of Northampton, Roade and Towcester running safely on the road.
With highly trained technicians and the latest equipment, it’s no surprise that we’re the leading, independent garage in the area.
Safety: Don’t become a statistic. A regular car service in Northampton ensures your car is running at its safest. It means you won’t get caught out by any hidden problems.
Reliability: There’s nothing worse than being caught out by early morning breakdowns. That’s why car servicing is so important. It stops the little things from getting bigger.
Savings: Love to save money? Who doesn’t? Well, there’s no better way to save money on your car than with a car service. Regular servicing means fewer repairs and more miles to the gallon. It can also enhance the resale value of your vehicle. What’s not to love?
Longevity: You’ve bought your car. Why would you not want it to last at its best for longer? A car service keeps your car running at its peak.
For most cars, this is between 10,000 miles to 20,00 miles or 12 months to 24 months.
However, your car should have a service light or schedule, which will tell you when your next car service in Northampton is due. If you’re still unsure, don’t worry. Give us a call and we’ll find out for you.

Lighting & Visibility – Your front and rear lights are rigorously checked for optimal performance, as is your glass, wipers, exterior mirrors and registration plates.
Steering, Drive & Suspension – All joints, gaiters and wheel bearings are extensively inspected, as well as your front and rear shock absorbers and road springs.
Tyre Inspection – All road wheels and tyres are inspected for any issues, and pressures adjusted prior to refitting. We’ll even check your spare wheel or inflation kit.
Under Bonnet – A full under bonnet inspection ensures no leaks and that everything is in working order. If necessary, we’ll replace service items such as your air filter, oil filter, spark plugs or drive belts.
Braking – Both front and rear brake components are checked and measured, allowing us to accurately report on their service life.
Under Vehicle – After your under trays are removed, the engine oil is drained and transmission checked for leaks.
Vehicle Interior – All seat belts, horn, hazard lighting and vehicle controls are inspected. We’ll also check for any warning messages, and ensure the driver displays are correct. This includes analysing your vehicle computers for intermittent or permanent faults.
Final Checks – We’ll finish up with your brake fluid and antifreeze test, before filling your engine with new oil. Once we’ve completed our work we’ll switch off any service lights on your dashboard and update your service history (paper or electronic) to have your vehicle performing at its best.

Staff were very professional and accommodating considering I hadn't booked and needed a MOT. Was able to leave my car there, in the spacious clean environment, and pick it up after work. Price for the MOT was the same as anywhere but the service was priceless, I will certainly be using this garage in the future.
First class garage and thank you to Nathan for his superb customer service.
An amazing service and the staff was super kind and helpful and there was waiting room with snacks,drinks and toys for children.I would definitely recommend it.
Lovely waiting area, great biscuits
Having listened to faith with any JLR dealership I turned to Roade Main.

Very Friendly Staff, excellent service and good value for money
Got diverted off A5 due to an accident. Had to come through other villages that had flood water. Damaged my under car seals, drove straight to Roade Main Garage and they looked at my car. Fixed it all within 30 minutes free of charge. What an amazing garage to have on your doorstep. All the staff are amazing. I can not thank all the staff enough for what they did for me today. So a big. Thank... Read More

I have used Roade garage now on several occasions. In the time I have mainly dealt with Nathan and Lydia. The customer service and communication is really good and I will certainly continue to use.
First visit to Roade main garage for a brake fluid change, and I have been very impressed with the customer care, quality of work and the facilities. A lot of main dealer could learn a thing or two. Would recommend to fellow Mini owners to use them. Additionally they are very competitively priced to a Mini dealer and have the OE equipment for service history. Looking forward to my next visit....

First class customer service from start to finish. Very friendly , honest and efficient. The repairs were done up to a high standard and reasonably priced. We are so lucky to have a reliable and trustworthy garage in the village. Thank you Roade Main Garage
Brilliant
Used road main garage to diagnose an oil leak on my land rover Freelander. Everybody I spoke to was very informative and helpful. They took the time to explain the fault and give me options that were in my best interest rather than most garages trying to just get your money! They have alot of knowledge when it comes to Landrovers and are very honest. Will be using again in the future
honestly the best experience i have EVER had at a garage.
being a woman, it is quite daunting going to a “predominantly male” place however i was greeted with some of the most lovely people. they explained everything simply and didn’t make me feel inferior for not understanding specifics- they managed to get me in quickly and did a full safety check on my car before discussing the...
