We have invested in the latest diagnostic software and systems. The Bosch diagnostic tools are the very latest technology and interface directly with your German cars control units, which are highly likely to have been manufactured by Bosch!

Most common problems with German Cars:
  1. ABS Control Unit problems
    We've seen a lot of issues with ABS control units and these can easily be replaced to cure many issues.
  2. Diesel Fuel Filters
    Notorious for causing all kinds of issues and false positive dashboard alerts as they often become clogged when the temperature drops
  3. Poor Battery Causing Diagnostic Faults
    Many Mercedes cars have two batteries and it's important to check them both for faults.
  4. Convertible Roof Faults

These days many manufacturers share a common supplier for car parts and technology. For example, many manufacturer parts (e.g. computers) are made by Bosch or Siemens. Most diesel engines in modern cars, including German models, are manufactured by Ford.  Our wide knowledge of all makes and models of vehicle allows us to solve problems quickly and efficiently.
