Here is an interesting article coming up and one the environmentalist’s are going to enjoy. We have always said there is no job too big or too small for us, we service all vehicle types and brands, and that is also true when it comes to electrically powered vehicles.

We are seeing more and more electrically powered vehicle’s coming to our garage needing help with servicing. Here is an example of a BMW vehicle, specifically the BMW I8 an environmentally friendly car that helps the environment as the car does not run off petrol or diesel, it is simply charged up just like a mobile phone from an electrical socket. Here are photos of the electrical BMW I8 currently receiving service work form our electrical bay.

This is quite some vehicle and has some very impressive technology. The technology on this vehicle is very complex and you will need the know how when it comes to servicing an electrical vehicle like this. So, word of warning time. We have always told you to avoid going to backstreet garages, when you have an electrical vehicle never go to a backstreet garage.

The kind of technology on this vehicle is very advanced! It will need a specialist electrical mechanic to look at this vehicle to repair or service this type of vehicle. Not only do you need a specialist mechanic, but you need all the specialist technology needed to look at an electrical vehicle like the BMW I8.

If you do not have the necessary vehicle technology to diagnose a fault on an electrical vehicle then you are not going to solve any faults quickly, or reliably. You must go to a garage that invests in diagnostic equipment. Backstreet garages do not have technology to diagnose faults reliably especially backstreet garages. So, at all costs avoid backstreet garages.

Our electrical bay is kitted out with all the latest vehicle technology. Over the last 6 months we have had to expand our electrical bay to cope with the demand of electrical vehicle servicing. We first launched our electrical bay back in 2016, we have serviced hundreds if not thousands of vehicles from our electrical bay and provide a fair and affordable service that is reliable.

We must also cover one more point. Remember that vehicle manufacturers are designing their vehicles very complexly, these are modern day vehicles being introduced on the market designed to only be serviced by main dealers and the vehicle brand manufacturer. The manufacturers do not want to lose work to backstreet garages, they are forcing motorists to go to main dealers. The problem for motorists is they will be forced into paying heavy and hefty servicing bills, because their only option is to turn to main dealers.

However there are options for the motorist, and that is to seek out an independent garage like ours that do invest in technology who are perfectly capable of servicing electrical vehicles. At A1 Diagnostics we never stop investing in the best facilities, this ensures we offer reliable vehicle servicing especially for electrically powered vehicles.
