In recent news, we are proud to announce that our company has achieved Volkswagen and Audi Geko security approval, marking a significant milestone in our capabilities as an automotive solution provider. This approval means that we have met the rigorous standards set by Volkswagen and Audi to ensure the highest level of security for their vehicles. But what does this mean for you as a Volkswagen or Audi owner? It means that we are now equipped to provide a range of services that were previously only available through authorized dealerships, including component protection removal and key programming. Component protection removal is a process that allows for the installation of used or new components into a vehicle that was previously equipped with a different component. For example, if a component in your car such as the radio, instrument cluster or engine control unit (ECU) fails, it may need to be replaced. However, if a new component is installed, it may be protected by component protection which means that the component will not function in the vehicle. With our new security approval, we are now able to remove this protection and program the new component to work in your vehicle seamlessly. Additionally, we are now able to program new keys for your Volkswagen or Audi. If you have lost your key or require a spare, we can program a new key and add it to your vehicle's immobilizer system, allowing the key to start the engine. Our Volkswagen and Audi Geko security approval has opened up a range of possibilities for our customers, giving them more options for their vehicle servicing needs. We are dedicated to providing high-quality services at affordable prices, without compromising on the safety and security of your vehicle. In conclusion, our new Volkswagen and Audi Geko security approval means that we are now able to provide component protection removal and key programming services to Volkswagen and Audi owners, offering a more affordable and convenient alternative to authorized dealerships. We are committed to providing the highest level of service and quality to our customers and look forward to helping you with your automotive needs.

Bosch Das3000 SCT815 ADAS Calibration

Why is ADAS calibration important?

Catalytic converter theft on the rise.

As winter comes into full swing, people may find their cars are struggling to start. Most common cause is as the weather cools off the chemical reactions in the batteries cells reduce in capacity. So your already degraded battery can no longer start the car. You may find after a jump start it will continue starting throughout the day, as the engine bay warms your battery up, though the next morning you will have the same problem. Other reasons for being unable to start your car in the morning include your alternator not recharging your battery while your driving. Or a parasitic drain sucking the power out of your battery when it sits over night. In any case it's best to get it tested so you have trouble free starting throughout winter. Tim

From day to day I get asked this question time and time again. "I am in the market for a Used Car, what cars are best and where can I buy?" For years my answer was always the same. Stick to Japanese and you cant go wrong. But as I get older and technologies advance, its hard to pick one brand or model over another. Sure some cars will come with more expensive servicing and maintenance, justified by comfort, brand or style. Today I spoke with a friend of mine Jim from Tony Lahood Motors. A Used Car Guru who has been in the industry since 1985. So I asked Jim the question "what's the best car second hand". His response was not what i was expecting, but upon second thought, made more sense then any other reason you would buy a car for. "Find a car that you are comfortable to drive in, an extension of you. A car that you find has good vision and will do the job you intend to use it for (people mover, commuter, 4wd, ute ect)." He went on to continue, "A vehicle you find easy to drive and comfortable you will be safer in and less likely to be the cause of an accident. You will also find you keep the car longer too." Well I thought... I guess your behind the steering wheel every day, and at a mechanic shop once a year... don't ask your mechanic what he likes, Your the one driving the car, get something comfortable. There you have it folks, the answer, drive a few different models. Don't worry about what others think and choose the best fit for you. Hope this Helps Tim Lhuede
