We have been a little quiet on our page. All is well, we are just busy keeping up with the high demand. But we thought this Audi RS6 in for a service was definitely worth a share.

Good morning all
We do appear to be having a technical problem with our phones and emails.

This Peugeot came in - Airbag warning light on.
We diagnosed the fault to the steering column module (Comms Unit).
New Genujne Peugeot part supplied and fitted and the light is off and vehicle repaired.

Little bit messy on the beach.
Some remapping for a local company. Making improvements to the vehicles drive👍

It’s been a little while since we have had to replace one of these. Battery Protection Module failed causing casing warning lights and battery drain.

It’s been a great year.

Great to have had Lee and David with us since early in the year, and great to still have Aidan on the team (he’s made it through another year 🎄).

Big thanks to our main suppliers — Jayar, GSF, Desira and TPS — for keeping the parts coming and the headaches minimal. (Debatable 🤣)

And a huge thank you to all our customers for the support this year — for the patience, kind words, and custom.

We’re off to eat and drink to much.

Have a very Merry Christmas 🎄🎄.
And a Happy New Year.

See you all next year when we reopen 5th January 🍻🔧🎅

AdBlue. Love it or hate it — it’s here to stay.
While opinions differ, its role in reducing harmful emissions is clear.

Whether you drive a VW Group, Citroën, or Peugeot, AdBlue system faults are common — and often misunderstood.

We have the specialist knowledge, diagnostic equipment, and real-world experience to accurately diagnose, repair, and resolve AdBlue issues, saving you unnecessary parts replacement and downtime.

If your vehicle is showing AdBlue warnings, countdowns, or fault codes, get in touch — we can help.

The last week of Christmas. Ment to be quiet and calm, but not much rest this week.
Plenty services.
Various repairs including VW Transporter wheel bearing replacement, coolant leaks on a Ford Galaxy and battery replacements, and many more.

We are back in Monday and Tuesday next week and back on the 5th of January 2026.
