Our process is designed to find the root cause of your vehicle’s issue. Thoroughly, efficiently, and without wasting your time.
Step 1:
Information Gathering
Just like detectives, we start by gathering all the facts. We use our purpose-built assessment forms to collect key details about the fault, when it happens, how often, what conditions it occurs under, and any warning lights or symptoms. These forms are designed to give our technicians the full picture from the start, helping us work faster and smarter.
Step 2:
Assessment Time Proposal
Once we’ve reviewed your information, we’ll get back to you with a recommended initial assessment time — this is how long we feel we need to begin investigating the issue properly.
Step 3:
Customer Approval & Booking
Once you’re happy with the proposed assessment time, we’ll book your vehicle in for the assessment. Nothing goes ahead until you’ve confirmed you’re happy with the plan.
Step 4:
The Assessment Begins
We carry out the diagnostic work and report our findings. You’ll never be charged for more time than you approved. We do not fit parts or carry out repairs without your authorisation.
Step 5:
Next Steps
Every assessment is different. Once we’ve investigated, we’ll advise you on the best route forward — whether it’s a fix, further diagnosis, or something else entirely. You’ll have all the information you need to make the right decision for your vehicle.
