⚙️🔧 Renault Traffic - Issue: My customer was experiencing issues with the clutch pedal resulting in difficulty in selecting gears, along with the engine running rough. Investigation: I found that the duel mass flywheel was excessively worn causing all symptoms above. A duel mass flywheel is deigned to absorb engine vibration and provide a smoother driving experience. Solution: New flywheel and clutch assembly fitted with the van back on the road shifting effortlessly through the gears and the engine now running smooth = satisfied customer 😊

🔧 Another engine saved !
Wet belt degraded on this Peugeot 2008 1.2. Small belt fragments blocking strainer causing poor engine oil circulation, luckily the customer had early warning with oil pressure light flashing on the dash. New timing belt fitted and strainer cleaned car back on the road and running perfectly 👍🏻 🔧 🚘

Been very quite on socials recently as I’ve been working hard in the background - I’m pleased to announce that SLJ Automotive is no longer mobile, as I’ve set up permanent residence with my very own workshop based at 27 Farriers Way, Temple Farm Industrial Estate, Southend. If you have an enquiry, please feel free to message me on 07896 624124 or, pop down to the workshop! I’m looking forward to this next chapter and to continue offering the quality service to my new and existing customers. 🔧 🚘

🔧 🛑 L200 lost brake performance. Customer was experiencing long brake pedal travel and difficulty stopping. This is what I found, rear brake cylinder has been leaking for some time and contaminated the rear brake shoes causing brake hydraulic to drain and shoes to break apart. New shoes and cylinders fitted both sides and truck back on the road safely ✅ 🛻

🔧 🚗 Another happy customer 😊 Renewed this engine coolant pipe that’s commonly known to fail on this BMW 430i causing engine to leak coolant and overheat. In order to renew this pipe, the intake manifold has to be removed to gain access. Genuine BMW parts used ✅ 👍🏻

🔧 Saved a Ford 1.0 Eco Boost engine today, customer was experiencing flashing oil light and abnormal engine sound. These symptoms are caused by wet belt degradation. Replaced full timing belt kit and cleaned oil pump strainer, engine is now running perfect 👌🏻 very lucky the customer caught these symptoms early before causing catastrophic engine damage. Ford parts only

Wet belt failure has become one of the most important problems Ford Transit owners face. (2016 onwards) This issue affects engine performance and can get expensive when repairs are needed.

Common cause of wet belt failure is engine oil contamination. Contaminated oil damages the belt’s performance and durability significantly. The engine oil attracts small impurities such as soot particles and crystalline that speed up belt degradation. These contaminants cause the belt’s material to break away and block the oil sump strainer, which then starves the engine of sufficient oil circulation or the belt’s to snap completely causing catastrophic damage. Call for free estimate, get peace of mind.
