Choosing an independent garage to re-calibrate Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) can have several advantages over going to a dealership or a manufacturer’s service center. A1 Diagnostics can help you with all of your ADAS systems as we have invested in a brand new ADAS bay that has all of the latest tech. This means we will get your vehicle’s ADAS systems re-calibrated reliably and quickly. Here are photos of our ADAS bay.



Here are some reasons why you might consider an independent garage for ADAS re-calibration:
Cost-Effectiveness: Independent garages generally have lower overhead costs compared to dealerships, which often translates to more competitive pricing for their services. Getting ADAS re-calibration at an independent garage can potentially save you money while still receiving quality service.
Specialisation and Expertise: Some independent garages specialize in ADAS calibration and related services. These specialized garages often have technicians who are highly trained and experienced in handling ADAS systems across various vehicle makes and models. Their expertise can lead to accurate and effective calibrations.
Personalised Service: Independent garages often provide a more personalized and customer-centric experience. As they tend to be smaller businesses, they may be able to give more individual attention to each customer and address specific needs and concerns.
Flexibility and Availability: Independent garages may offer more flexibility in scheduling appointments for ADAS re-calibration. They may also have more availability compared to dealerships, which could mean faster turnaround times for getting your ADAS system recalibrated.
Updated Equipment: Reputable independent garages invest in up-to-date diagnostic equipment and tools to perform ADAS recalibration accurately. They may stay current with the latest advancements in ADAS technology and have access to the necessary software updates.
Access to Parts: Independent garages may have access to a wide range of aftermarket parts and components, providing more options for ADAS re-calibration. This can be especially useful if your vehicle is no longer covered by the manufacturer’s warranty.
Support for Older Vehicles: If you own an older vehicle with ADAS technology, the dealership may no longer provide service for it. Independent garages, however, may have the expertise and resources to work on older vehicles and calibrate their ADAS systems.
Local Business Support: Choosing an independent garage supports local businesses and contributes to the local economy. Building a relationship with a reliable local garage can also be beneficial in the long run, as they get to know your vehicle’s specific needs and maintenance history.
While there are clear advantages to choosing an independent garage for ADAS re-calibration, it’s essential to ensure that the garage you select has the necessary expertise, equipment, and reputation for quality service. Look for reviews and recommendations from other customers to make an informed decision about the best independent garage for your ADAS calibration needs.
