Book an Electrical CheckHow It Works
Battery Load Test
We don’t just guess. We use a digital tester to check the health, cold-cranking amps, and voltage of your battery.
Alternator Test
We run the engine with the headlights and heaters on to ensure the alternator is pumping out a healthy 14+ volts.
Parasitic Drain Check
If the parts are fine, we test the wiring to see if a faulty radio or module is draining the battery while you sleep.
Fit & Code
If you need a new battery, we fit a premium replacement and program it to the car’s computer so it charges correctly.
Electrical Starting Services
Keeping Coventry Cars Starting
VRS are excellent !! The receptionist was very polite and helpful, explaining everything clearly. The service was quick, and I was satisfied with the work provided.
The staff were professional and helpful. My car is a Mercedes and the air suspension has been totally replaced by the VRS team at a reasonable cost and very efficiently. Really good service ranging from the reception guys to the mechanics would definitely recommend to anyone
As well as a service I had asked for a tyre replacement & agreed the extra work to overcome misplacement of my locking wheel nut key. VRS later found my key (in a hidden compartment ) + advised the tyre replacement was unnecessary, saving me between £200 & £300 for which I am most grateful.
Top set of professionals. Had an urgent issue with my car that needed to be investigated and addressed at the last minute.
They managed to squeeze me in at the last minute and complete repairs in a day with constant updates and communication all the way through. Well priced services with quick turnaround.

Everybody has a great attitude, it is a pleasure to give them our custom. A big yes for VRS.
Been using VRS for over 20 years for both of our cars. Excellent knowledgeable service and advice. Thorough and professional at all times. Cannot recommend them strongly enough.
Always use these guys for MOT on my camper van. When work was needed to stop brakes squeaking it was fixed free of charge.
