Cecil Street Autos was established in 2010 in the former AutoWindscreens building in Cecil Street near the centre of Carlisle. The well known building was also used in the 80s By the Davidsons' Lada garage and dealership before they moved to a new garage in Rosehill and gained the Proton dealership franchise.

The garage is run by David Mason and Mark Wilson who have been in the Garage and Vehicle Service trade in and around Carlisle, Cumbria and the Isle of Man for many years.

Our aim is to provide a quality, friendly and professional service to all our customers no matter what the make, model or age of their vehicle.

We are a proud member of the Good Garage Scheme - this is a voluntary scheme which is in place to improve the service garages provide to their customers

Our Carlisle city centre garage tyre fitting bay is fully equipped to change all types of tyre on car, 4x4 and light commercial vehicles.

Services offered include:

  • Fitting of new tyres
  • Rotation of existing tyres for even wear
  • Puncture repair and bead reseating
  • Balancing
  • Wheel Alignment (tracking, toe, camber and castor where applicable on vehicle)
  • Evaluation of condition

We are happy to evaluate and report on the condition of your tyres. It is recommended that tyres are replaced after 10 years.

Lost your locking nut key? A common occurrence that we can usually resolve without damage to the wheels. We can supply replacement standard or locking nuts.

Incorrect wheel alignment, such as tracking faults can lead to rapid and dangerous tyre wear, as well as poor handling and poor economy. The cost of an alignment check is significantly cheaper than replacing tyres.

Our city centre Carlisle garage specialises in the service and repair of faults in Antilock Braking Systems ( ABS ) and general braking issues. We can diagnose system faults in most ABS systems including ATE Teves and Bendix as found on the majority of cars in the UK.

We can carry out braking work as part of a general service or brake service on its own. Regular servicing will ensure the systems remain in safe working order, help optimise performance and hopefully avoid costly damage to the braking system.

We have a brake lathe that allows us to skim disks on the car and "true" them to the hub rotation, taking out pitting, warping and other minor damage which in many cases will save money over having disks replaced.

Air Conditioning or AirCon has become standard on most of today's production cars with around 70% of cars benefiting from it. The qualified technicians in our Carlisle city centre garage can inspect your aircon system and check the refrigerant pressure which is advisable on a regular basis as all systems leak a small amount of gas over time. The lubricant for the system also needs topping up, these items can be done as part of our normal vehicle service routines or as a separate A/C Service.

We provide servicing, diagnostics, re-gassing and repair of AirCon systems. In some cases we can convert old systems running R12 to modern R134a CFC free refrigerant restoring cooling on older cars. Where needed we will also replace the pollen filters which can severely affect the performance of your aircon system when they become badly blocked after only 12-24 months of use.

We can also de-odorise your system using special anti-bacterial agents to clear out the ventilation ducts (Please ask about this service). If your system seems to be not cooling as well as it did then pop in for a refrigerant check-up today.
