🚐🍔 A little treat for the All Trans team, courtesy of GSF! 🍔🚐

We’re proud to be a Servicesure garage, which means we’re part of a nationwide network of trusted independent garages. Giving customers confidence that they’re bringing their vehicles to a workshop they can rely on. 🔧🚗

As part of that relationship, GSF Car Parts sent their food truck down to All Trans Autos to treat our team to some lovely food! 🙌

It’s fair to say the team were pretty happy about this one! 😂🍔

Our technicians and service advisors work incredibly hard every day so it’s always lovely when they get a little treat and the chance to enjoy something together.

A massive thank you to GSF and Servicesure for looking after our team.

It’s great to be part of a network that supports independent garages and the people working within them.

And an even bigger thank you to our brilliant All Trans team for everything you do! 💚

💚🚛 Keeping another local business on the road! 🚛💚

This lorry was back with us at All Trans Autos for its MOT, as part of the ongoing servicing, maintenance and repairs we carry out for this customer’s fleet of vehicles. 🔧

Unfortunately, it didn’t quite make it through its MOT this time, with a front shock absorber needing to be replaced.

Our team got the replacement sorted and the lorry was put back through its retest. ✅

Another vehicle sorted and ready to get back to work! 🙌

We know how important it is for businesses to keep their vehicles on the road. Whether it’s a single van or a whole fleet of commercial vehicles, we’re here to help with everything from routine servicing and MOTs to diagnostics and repairs.

And with our workshop facilities equipped to accommodate larger commercial vehicles, we’re able to look after much more than just cars! 🚛

💚 Thank you to our customers who continue to trust us with keeping their businesses moving.

🔧🚐 A few bits needed to get this Vauxhall Movano through its MOT! 🚐 🔧

This Movano came into All Trans Autos for its yearly MOT and needed a little attention before it was ready for another year on the road.

The team looked into the handbrake efficiency, replaced the mirror glass, and fitted a new offside rear brake caliper, pads and discs.

Once the work was complete, it was retested and passed and now good for another year! ✅

All sorted and ready to get back to work. 🚐💨

We carry out Class 4, 5 and 7 MOTs here at All Trans Autos, so whether it’s your car, van or larger vehicle, give our team a call to get booked in.

🔧 Part 4: ❓

Some might be easy… but we reckon at least one will catch you out! 😏

🔧🚐 A few bits needed to get this Renault Trafic through its Class 7 MOT!

This Trafic came into All Trans Autos for its Class 7 MOT and needed a little attention before we could give it a pass.

The team replaced the rear brake pads and discs, fitted two new tyres and carried out a front wheel alignment to make sure everything was sitting as it should.

Once the work was complete, we put it back through its MOT retest and it was a pass! ✅

All sorted and ready to get back to work. 🚐💨

🚨🔧 ONLY 34,000 MILES… BUT THIS ASTRA NEEDED AN ENGINE! 🔧🚨

This Vauxhall Astra came to All Trans Autos after unfortunately breaking down.

The recovery company recommended us to the customer, so the car was brought straight to our workshop for investigation. 🚗

Joel got straight onto the investigation and found that the vehicle had lost its coolant & the engine had no compression.

Further compression testing confirmed:

🔍 Three cylinders had zero compression
💧 Coolant had emptied from the system
⚠️ Internal engine failure confirmed
🔧 Replacement engine required

Once authorised by the customer, Joel replaced the engine and got everything back together and thoroughly tested it.

And now? The Astra is good as gold and back on the road! 🙌🚗

A big job and a great result from Joel. 👏🔧

Whether your vehicle has a warning light, strange noise or has unfortunately left you completely stranded, our team can investigate, diagnose and carry out everything from everyday repairs right through to major engine work.

🚐🔧 DON’T WAIT FOR YOUR CAMBELT TO FAIL BEFORE THINKING ABOUT IT! 🔧🚐

This Citroën Relay came into All Trans Autos for some important preventative maintenance, with its cambelt and water pump due for replacement based on the vehicle’s mileage.

It was over to Tony to get the job done. 👨‍🔧💪

🔧 Cambelt replaced
💧 Water pump replaced
✅ Everything reassembled and checked
🚐 Back on the road and ready for plenty more miles!

A cambelt is one of those maintenance items you really don’t want to ignore. Replacing it when it’s due can help avoid the risk of a much bigger and considerably more expensive engine repair if it fails.

👏 Another job ticked off by Tony and another Relay properly maintained!

📞 Is your cambelt due or not sure when it was last replaced? Get in touch with the friendly team at All Trans Autos in Stanway and we can help.

🚗🔧 SAT FOR A YEAR… NOW IT’S TIME TO GET THIS ONE BACK ON THE ROAD! 🔧🚗

This car had been off the road for around a year after previously failing its MOT on emissions. With the owner also having a newborn, getting the car sorted understandably had to take a back seat for a while! 👶

Now ready to get it back on the road, it came into All Trans Autos with the engine management light on for us to investigate.

Rather than simply replacing parts based on fault codes, our technician carried out the relevant diagnostic testing to establish what was actually causing the problem. 🔍

The investigation confirmed that both lambda sensors required replacement.

🔍 Engine management light investigated
🧪 Emissions fault diagnosed
🔧 Both lambda sensors identified as requiring replacement
🚗 One step closer to getting this car back on the road!

Proper diagnostics is about testing and confirming the fault before recommending repairs, helping make sure customers are spending their money in the right place.
