We have over 15 years’ experience in the vehicle servicing trade. We are experts in all forms of vehicle servicing and our motto has always been, there is no job too big or too small for us. We have likely seen every vehicle gremlin known to man from our garage workshop pictured below.

We have been there and seen it all and are confident we can service any fault. Why are we so confident? Because we know that we invest in all the best facilities that ensure reliable vehicle servicing.

What do we mean by facilities? We provide all the latest vehicle technology that helps diagnose vehicle faults. Our mechanics have all the state-of-the-art equipment needed to pinpoint exact faults on vehicles. Whether you have a sun roof that is not retracting the way it should, an electrical fault with your vehicle, or a mechanical fault with the engine we know exactly what to do to help get your car back out on the road as quickly as possible.

Here we have a vehicle that had an electrical fault. When the accelerator pedal was receiving pressure, it was not translating into more drive and power, or rather more speed when out on the road. This was caused because of an electrical wiring fault, the wire became faulty and was not transmitting data to the ECU telling the vehicles engine to speed up when the accelerator pedal was applied. Here is the vehicle pictured receiving work from our electrical bay.

Electrical faults are less complex to fix compared with complete engine rebuilds. Electrical faults are fiddly, whereas a mechanical fault to be diagnosed correctly must be loaded on to a ramp and the vehicle components stripped back, there is a lot more intricate complex work to be carried out.

For example, the photo below shows an Audi vehicle on the ramp having a complete engine rebuild because the engine’s timing chain snapped.

The timing chain snapped when the vehicle was on the motorway going at high speed, the worst time it could snap, the chain snapping caused a lot of damage to the engine. Rather than scrapping the engine and fitting a new one in, we rebuilt the engine keeping this motorists’ costs down. Having a new engine would have costs thousands of pounds, however we salvaged the engine and repaired the engine at a fraction of the cost of what a new engine would cost.

Like we said at the start of this article. We have seen it all from complex vehicle service jobs to the most complicated, it does not matter what the problem is we can help.
