Welcome to Fairwater Garage (Taunton) Ltd. We are a quality independent garage and MOT Test station who offer all garage services to all makes of cars.

Part of Taunton’s Heritage, Fairwater Garage was originally established in the 1950’s…

Paul Liell took over the mechanical side of the business on worked as a ‘one man band’ until 1995 when he employed his first apprentice Andy, who is still part of the Fairwater team today. This is just a testament to the longevity of the business. As the company grew in size a move to larger premises was necessary. In 2000 Paul moved to the current site in Priorswood and now employs 6 technicians who collectively have over 90 years’ experience. This level of skill and expertise allows us to carry out work with a wide variety of car repairs, diagnostic testing. We understand that customer communication is key to a good service.

🚗 **MOT RULE CHANGE – LED HEADLIGHTS**

Did you know that the rules for LED replacement headlight bulbs have changed?

From 14 October 2026, some LED bulbs fitted into existing halogen headlights can now pass an MOT.

Previously, these conversions would have resulted in an MOT failure.

**But there are a few conditions:**

✅ The LED replacement bulbs must be ECE approved for use in the headlight unit.

✅ The correct bulbs must be fitted.

✅ A manufacturer's approval sticker must be permanently attached to the vehicle, where the MOT tester can easily see it.

⚠️ **No approval sticker? Your headlights could fail the MOT, even if the bulbs themselves are approved.**

Not all LED replacement bulbs meet the new requirements, so it's worth checking before your next MOT.

If you're unsure about your headlights, give us a call. We're always happy to advise.

Spotted a puddle underneath your car?

Clear water after using the air-conditioning is often simply condensation. But if the fluid is oily, coloured, has a strong smell or keeps appearing, it is worth getting it checked.

A small leak can quickly become a much bigger problem, so it is better to investigate than guess.

Not sure what your car is leaking? Let us take a look.

Hot weather does not just affect you. It affects your car too.

Before you head off on a summer journey, it is worth checking:

Battery health
Tyre pressure and tread
Coolant level
Air conditioning
Oil and other fluids
Belts, hoses and wiper blades

Heat can turn a small issue into a roadside breakdown, especially on longer journeys or in heavy traffic.

A quick check now could save a lot of hassle later.

Book your summer vehicle check with us before the next hot spell.

👉Want to save fuel and keep your engine running smoothly?👈

🚕Not all engine oils are the same. The right oil can actually help you use less fuel. Fully synthetic, high-lubricity oils are designed to flow more easily, reducing friction in your engine. That means smoother running, better efficiency – and up to 5% fuel savings.

They might cost a little more than standard oils, but they can save you money in the long run (and they’re kinder to the environment too 🌍).

If you’re not sure which oil is best for your car, pop into Fairwater Garage – we’ll check the manufacturer’s recommendation and make sure your engine gets exactly what it needs.

🚗 Why Your Wiper Blades Really Matter!

It’s easy to forget about your windscreen wipers - until you really need them! 🌧️
But did you know that good visibility (and your safety) depends on their quality?

Your wipers have a tough job: over their lifetime, they can complete around 750,000 wipes — that’s the equivalent of clearing 80 football pitches worth of glass!

They also face all sorts of harsh conditions:
❄️ Freezing cold to blazing summer heat (from -30°C up to 80°C!)
🐞 Dirt, insects, ice, and road grime
🧪 Exposure to sunlight and chemicals

If your wipers are squeaking, streaking, or skipping, it’s time for a replacement. Pop into Fairwater Garage and we’ll get your visibility crystal clear again. 👀✨

👉Ever Wondered Why People Drive with Lights On During the Day?👈

💡Answer is simple!

Even in daylight, headlights make your car far more visible – especially in poor weather like fog, snow, or rain.

Daytime running lights are now mandatory in many European countries, and studies show they help reduce accidents.

Driving with dipped headlights can slightly increase wear on your bulbs, but with Bosch’s **high-performance bulbs** – such as the **Plus 90** for extra brightness or the **Longlife Daytime** for durability – you can stay visible and safe without worry.

🚗 See and be seen – drive bright, drive safe with Fairwater Garage - Bosch Car Service.
