Can every flat tyre in SW11 be repaired on the street?

No. A repair in SW11 is only suitable when the damage is in the central tread and the tyre can come off the wheel for an internal patch. Sidewall cuts in Clapham Junction are replacements.

Does SW11 mean you will arrive in a fixed number of minutes?

No. Traffic in south-west London, and how far the technician has to travel, set the time for SW11. We tell you that time before you accept it.

What should I say when I call from SW11?

Say the street in Clapham Junction, the code SW11, what the tyre looks like, and whether you have the locking wheel nut key. A photo helps if you can take one safely.

The locking wheel nut in Clapham Junction

A large share of delays on a SW11 call-out are missing locking wheel nut keys, not missing tyres. Before you call from Clapham Junction, look in the glovebox, the boot wallet, and the service book. If the key is lost, say that at the start. The visit can still happen, but the time and the method change, and you should hear that before anyone sets off.
