Car Won’t Start in Spondon or Derby?

  • Clicking noise when turning the key

  • Engine won’t turn over

  • Intermittent starting problems

  • Dashboard lights come on but the engine doesn’t start

  • Grinding noise during ignition

Our local garage is easy to find and we’re always happy to take a look and advise on the best solution.

Battery or Starter Motor – What’s the Problem?

A common question is whether the issue is the battery or the starter motor.

  • If your battery is flat, the engine may not crank at all

  • If the starter motor is faulty, you may hear a clicking sound but the engine won’t turn over

  • Electrical faults can also affect starting performance

We carry out checks to accurately diagnose the issue, so you’re not replacing parts unnecessarily.
