Immaculately presented 2016 Ford Focus ST in for MOT, Service and brake fluid change today.
Brake fluid changes are an important part of your vehicles maintenance, ensuring that your braking system is free of moisture and contamination, greatly reducing the possibility of brake failure.
Diagnostics is not just a case of “plugging in”. This is often our first step, but there is so much more to understand. Knowing why the fault code is there, knowing what measurements to check, knowing what measurements should be there, and finally which part is faulty.
The testing below was done to prove the wiring to ECU from sensor was intact and good, the ECU was processing the information correctly and then finally being able to say with conviction that the new part required will actually fix the car! Sometimes it’s a £50 part and sometimes it’s £1000 part. Either way, we want the right answer!

You have hit the nail on the head there , most people even some in the trade seem to fully believe we have some sort of magic computers we can plug in and it tells us what's wrong .
Investment in special tools and training is what makes the difference between doing the job correctly, or not!!
Here is a VW Golf having its DSG dry clutch replaced, which needs to be correctly shimmed and then adapted using the dealer diagnostic tool for correct operation.
It requires many special tools and a lot of precision measurements to get it correctly setup.
All in a days work here at RCMR.

Welcome to 2021!!!
We look forward to seeing everyone again after the Christmas holidays and are pleased to say we are open and trading as per usual on Monday 4th January.
We have had many emails, messages and missed a good number of phone calls, so we will be making a list and getting in touch with you over the next couple of days.
Just a gentle request to please respect the COVID restrictions we have in place as we would like to remain open and keep you and our staff and their families safe.
Hybrid/EV vehicles will be the future no matter how much I personally love a big capacity petrol engine.
Here I am, checking that the high voltage system is totally isolated and safe to carry out the replacement heater module on this 2016 Golf GTE
We have 2 EV qualified technicians, with the back up of the special tools, training and access to the latest information on repairing these complex vehicles.
Get in touch if you have an EV or hybrid that requires service or repairs.

What a monster of a camper van!!
Customer came in with an oil leak under the van which was coming from a failed turbo hose. New parts were ordered from Mercedes, fitted and vehicle washed down.

I walked past this today and thought it was one big merc.
VW Caddy with dual mass flywheel failure. After removing the clutch, we were faced with a slight problem. The failed flywheel hub had twisted covering the bolts that secure it!!
Only one way to proceed here, which involved some cutting!
Being a specialist repair workshop means more than just putting a sign up to say that you are.
It requires constant investment and a passion for the brands that you work on. This tool alone is over £2000 😳
This special tool is required to do the timing belt replacement on the newer smaller engines fitted to many cars within the VW group.
Without using this tool and doing the job incorrectly, it can cause poor running, poor fuel economy and flat spots when accelerating.
We are currently the ONLY workshop in the area to have this tool other than the main dealers.
Get in touch if your car is due a replacement timing belt and we will be able to do the job for you, correctly!

Things have changed from a bit of white paint and a strobe lamp!!
Sexy piece of kit, remember buy the additional camshaft inserts if you haven’t already, the kit doesn’t come with them all.
We still have a few limited spaces available before closing for the holidays. We will be closed from 24th December and back on 4th January, giving the hard working staff and myself a well deserved break after a very busy few months.
Enjoy your Christmas break and we hope to see everyone in 2021!!
