Vehicle diagnostics
Modern vehicles store fault codes for almost everything. We plug in and read those codes, but we do not stop there — a code tells you where to look, not always what is wrong. We combine the data with proper mechanical checks so the real cause is found first time.
Engine management light, ABS or airbag warnings, EGR and DPF issues, misfires, limp mode, glow plug lights on diesels — bring it to us and we will tell you what we find and what it will take to put right.
Warning lights you should not ignore
Red oil pressure light
Stop as soon as it is safe. Driving on can destroy the engine — call us for recovery instead.
Temperature warning
Overheating can crack a cylinder head. Pull over, let it cool and get it checked.
Brake warning light
Could be low fluid, worn pads or a handbrake sensor. Always worth checking immediately.
Engine management light
Amber usually means driveable but get it read soon; flashing means stop and call us.
