Another day, another Renault traffic front end removal. All of this and more to get this vans electrical systems charging and fit again. Luckily we love getting stuck in 😂😂

This Jaguar XF came in suffering from a failed gear selector unit. Manually over riding the transmission allowed us to manoeuvre the car around so we could set to work. New unit installed and calibrated following a dash polish to keep the OCD demons at bay 😂

Kia Rio power steering problems: quite commonly modern cars are equipped with electronic power steering systems as apposed to hydraulic systems ie belt driven pumps etc. The modern systems can suffer failures caused by an array of components. On this particular vehicle we found the motor and control unit to have failed. Removed and dispatched for repair with one our trusted firms kept the costs down and also gave us a chance to repair and refine with remastered internals meaning we can eliminate common quality faults within the system.

Two of the four diesel injectors on this Peugeot were completely seized in the cylinder head. This meant the chances of removing them intact became slim or next to none. 15 Ton of hydraulic pressure later and some success, although they were stubborn until the very end and came out in pieces.....bores cleaned, faces cutt, followed by the install and programming of new injectors had this boxer bobbing down the road again.

Damaged can bus wiring harness repair/manufacturing on this Mercedes to iron out some unwanted electronic kinks. Various problems resolved after the customer had been advised the car required the onboard ECU (computer) replaced at a cost of almost £3k by a local independent specialist....👀

Extraction call out at a local garage completed earlier this week. This time the more common issue of a seized glow plug which can quickly escalate into a snapped glow plug... Its always important to know your drilling depths, take measurements and to be familiar with the metals/properties you are working with. Harder generally goes hand in hand with being brittle. Enough of the boring theory, extract,clean, salvage thread, install plug 👍👍

Turbo manifold stud extraction completed for a local Garage in Reading. Unfortunately the constant heat contraction and retraction on such components can cause the corrosion process to speed up and often seize bolts in situ. Patience and a little help from some special drill bits allowed me to not only remove the offending stud step by step millimetre by millimetre but to also salvage and keep the original threads operational.

Recently attended a Call out at a garage in Reading for a repair they had inherited from a local independent specialist. Extraction of a snapped fuel injector. While the owner had been advised it would most certainly require removal of the cylinder head( by a bmw specialist and also a reputable thread removal service) we came, we saw, we conquered-Injector removed, bore/chamber cleaned and ready for replacement. We carry out a wide variety of extraction/removal of snapped studs,bolts,seized injectors.
