Citroen servicing in Maidstone, Kent

Most Citroens on the road today are C1s, C3s, C4s, Berlingos and C5 Aircrosses, powered by the 1.2 PureTech petrol or a BlueHDi diesel. The 1.2 PureTech runs its cambelt in oil, so the wrong oil or a stretched service interval can wear the belt early. BlueHDi diesels use AdBlue and a DPF, both of which need checking.

We service your Citroen to its schedule, use oil to the correct PSA specification, inspect the PureTech belt where we can and read any stored faults on diesel models. The service is recorded and the indicator reset with diagnostic equipment.

Citroen know-how

What we look at on a Citroen

PureTech wet belt

The 1.2 PureTech petrol engine runs its cambelt in oil. The belt wears and sheds debris if the wrong oil or long intervals are used, so we inspect it and use the specified oil.

BlueHDi diesels

BlueHDi diesels use AdBlue and a DPF. We check the AdBlue system and DPF condition as part of the service and read any stored faults.

Service indicator reset

We reset the service indicator with diagnostic equipment, not just the dash buttons, so the next service date is right.

Cambelt by age as well as miles

Belt intervals have an age limit too. A low-mileage car can still be due, so we check the history and tell you before it becomes a risk.

In our customers’ own words.

Absolute gold star service! After having the misfortune to have my Abarth mapped by someone else, and the subsequent issues and unnecessary expenditure chasing a problem that didn't exist, I've had my car mapped today by JF Automotive and it's night...

Absolute gold star service!Abarth 595

Courteous, great service. My SQ7 is now a beast after the bolt-on ECU. Repeat customer - did my Abarth 595 a year ago making it a very hot hatch! If only JF was closer to London! - April 2024

Excellent Service! Right from the start, when I contacted regarding engine management issues with my BMW, Jay & Olivia were very helpful on the phone and by email explaining the process and options. Once the car was on site, diagnostic checks were qu...

Common questions

How much is a Citroen service?
Our guide prices start at £169 for an interim (Bronze) service, £239 for a full (Silver) service and £339 for a major (Gold) service, including VAT. Some Citroen engines take specialist or large-capacity oil, which can add an oil surcharge, so we confirm the exact price from your registration first.
Will servicing my Citroen here affect the warranty?
No. Block exemption rules mean any qualified garage can service a car under manufacturer warranty, as long as the correct schedule, parts and fluids are used and the work is recorded. We follow the Citroen schedule and stamp the book or update the digital record.
How long does a Citroen service take?
Most interim services take a few hours and full services are usually same-day. If we find anything else, we call you with photos and a price before doing any extra work.
Can you do an MOT at the same time?
Yes. We can arrange an MOT alongside the service so the car is only off the road once.
