This C63s was brought to us to diagnose rough running concerns under power. After a comprehensive inspection and diagnostic of the vehicle, we presented all evidence to the customer and recommended uploading the latest factory Mercedes software. This showed multiple misfire codes. The previous tune had been allowing the misfires to continue without flagging them or protecting the engine by shutting down the problem cylinders. From there we also found loose spark plugs, failed ignition coils and worn front tyres.

We replaced:
▪Spark plugs
▪Ignition coils
▪Front control arms
▪Front tyres

As well as completing:
▪A wheel alignment
▪A major service
▪A re tune of the ECU and TCU with

Once finished, it made +110rwkw over stock and +30rwkw over its previous tune.

We've fitted to this A45s hill climb weapon for braking you can count on, run after run 🏁

Every time you brake, your pads and rotors turn speed into heat. Standard brakes are built for everyday driving, so when you push hard lap after lap they can overheat and start to fade. That's when the pedal goes soft and the car takes longer to stop.

Upgraded brakes are designed to handle that heat. They stay cool under pressure and give the same feel every time you hit the pedal.

Stopped by .adl for their grand opening yesterday. Great coffee, great cars and an epic space. Nice to see a couple of familiar builds on display too! Congrats to the team 🤝

Sporting an Eventuri cold air intake and an Integrated Engineering downpipe, this tastefully modified Golf R came in for a Galano Engineering custom ECU and TCU tune with lowering springs.

179KW ➡ 221KW
339NM ➡ 522NM

We also ran an ADAS check before it went home, so the radar cruise, lane assist and AEB are all reading as they should.

What do you get when you pair a exhaust, intake and ECU and TCU tune together?

After a lot of questions about the works on the blue monster, here's a closer look at what went into the RS6.

The competition downpipes and mid pipes take out the restrictive factory components that create back pressure on the exhaust side of the turbochargers. Less back pressure means faster boost onset and better heat dispersion higher in the rev range, where the engine really starts to sing. Air moving out faster means more air in, and you feel it straight away.

From there it goes on the dyno, with calibration done alongside . The vitals of engine operation get optimised to extract the highest power safely, revised until everyone is happy with the result. Every car is calibrated on its own merits.

The transmission tune matters just as much as the engine side. It controls shift architecture, torque limits, shift speeds and how much torque gets sent to all four wheels. When you increase torque on the engine side, the transmission needs to know about it.

Once it's lowered, the alignment and ADAS calibration get sorted here too. Drop the ride height and the geometry changes, and the cameras and radar read the road and other traffic off that geometry. Both systems rely on the accuracy of the other, so both get done before it goes back on the road.

To all the dads out there, Happy Father's Day from the team at Haines.

It's a special one for us this year with both Callum and Neil celebrating their first!

Enjoy the day and we'll see you in the shop on Monday 😎

This RS6 doesn't muck around 😮‍💨

▪ Downpipes and mid pipes
▪ Spacers
▪ ECU and TCU tune
▪Air suspension lowered through ODIS with all the factory modes retained
▪Alignment and ADAS calibration - all done in house
▪ASR module so the exhaust valves can be controlled separately from the drive mode through the factory interface and it remembers the last setting on start up

With 452kW and 993Nm at the wheels, it's really not a bad way to end a busy week.
