The garage other garages call when the fault won't go away.
Owner-operated since day one. Real specialists, real cars, real fair prices.
Started as a specialist. Stayed a specialist.
MAJ Diagnostics started for a simple reason: too many drivers were being told their car needed a new engine when it actually needed a new sensor. Maj built the business as a proper diagnostics specialist - someone who reads what the car is actually saying, not just what the warning light hints at.
That's still how it runs today. Maj is in the workshop every day. The person who picks up the phone is the person who diagnoses your car. No hidden middlemen, no quote-by-the-hour stretching, no "while we've got it on the ramps" upsells you didn't ask for.
The reputation has been built one car at a time. Most new work comes from word of mouth - from drivers across Birmingham, from other garages who've reached the limit of their tooling, and from main-dealer customers who've finally had enough of dealer pricing.
Dealer-level tooling. Independent prices.
We run the same brand-specific diagnostic platforms the main dealers use. That's the only way to do specialist work properly - and it's why we can confidently take on the cars other garages turn away.

Why an independent specialist beats the main dealer.
A main dealer is set up to maximise revenue from courtesy cars, parts and time. We're set up to fix your car correctly and fairly so you come back next time and tell a friend.
- Same tools, smaller bill
Dealer-level diagnostic platforms - without the dealer hourly rate.
- Honest, no-upsell quoting
You hear about what's actually wrong - not what's targeted this quarter.
- Speak to the person fixing your car
No service receptionist between you and the technician. You explain the fault to Maj.
Got a fault no one else can fix? Bring it to Maj.
Phone, WhatsApp or book online. We will diagnose, quote honestly, and only fix what needs fixing.
