Engine Repair & Rebuilds
Engine rebuilds and repairs can be expensive. At lot can happen to your car engine over an extended period of time and you may find that you need it to be repaired or replaced.
It is possible to repair some problems, you don’t always need a replacement engine; which is something we will always investigate. Before we recommend rebuilding your engine, we will source parts to complete a repair. This will save you both money and time!
Engine Diagnostics
Most modern vehicles today, contain an onboard computer known as an ECU which continually monitors the performance of the vehicle.
We use state-of-the-art equipment for vehicle diagnostics which can read the engine fault codes in your ECU’s memory. Our trained technicians can then suggest any necessary repairs to rectify the error and get you back on the road.
Gearbox Repairs
Gearboxes are a complex part of any vehicle, so maintenance is an important part of the vehicle’s servicing needs.
Through expert diagnosis, we be able to advise if your gearbox is faulty prior to starting any work on your vehicle.
If you think that you are having problems with your gearbox, just bring your vehicle along to our garage have it investigated.
Cambelt Repairs
Unlike other mechanical components of your vehicle, cambelts are prone to natural wear and tear over prolonged mileage and/or periods of time.
In the interests of safety and engine maintenance, it is vital that the cambelt of your car is replaced when necessary.
When a cambelt snaps, it can cause major damage to both the valves and pistons of the engine. It can also damage other expensive components of the vehicle, which may lead to an entire replacement in extreme circumstances.
Car Batteries
If you require a new car battery, we can provide a full battery replacement service and can dispose of your old battery. If you have concerns about the age or charging capacity of your car battery, don’t leave it until your car won’t start.
Your car battery is the only source of power to get your car started so it is very important that you check your battery regularly. Flat batteries are one of the main reasons for breakdown calls in the UK, especially on cold mornings; you will only really know something is wrong when your car doesn’t start!
Car Body repairs
We complete car body repairs such as bumper scuffs, paintwork scratches, minor dents and kerbed alloy wheels without re-painting the entire panel/wheel, resulting in a quality repair at a fraction of body shop prices.
Exhausts
To keep your vehicle in excellent condition, we would recommend having your emissions and exhaust system checked regularly for cracks, leaking joints, broken hangers, worn rubber mountings, corrosion, failed gaskets and high levels of pollutant gases.
If you hear any strange noises coming from your exhaust or have concerns about the condition of your exhaust system, the best advice is to come into our garage where our qualified specialists will be able to help diagnose the fault and suggest an appropriate solution.
Air Conditioning
Many drivers experience the benefits of air conditioning in their car or van on a hot day but just like other parts of your car, the air conditioning system also needs regular attention to ensure it continues to work efficiently and effectively.
Vehicle air conditioning systems can lose refrigerant gas over time, especially if they aren’t used regularly; meaning that they may not work as well as they should. Manufacturers recommend your air con system is recharged with gas and lubricant every 2 years.
This service is not part of routine vehicle servicing, so if your vehicle is more than 2 years old it’s probably due an air con recharge.
