Customer Reviews
Outstanding Service - Highly Recommended! My car's alternator belt snapped at Canal Walk Mall after 6pm. Every mobile mechanic I called said they couldn't help because parts shops were closed. Then I found Dayne -- he immediately said he would help, found the part, arrived, fixed my car right there in the parking lot, ran a full diagnostic test, and sent me a detailed report. Outstanding service from an outstanding gentleman!
I had an excellent experience with this car service! The staff were friendly, professional, and very helpful. They kept me updated throughout the process and made sure I understood everything. My car feels brand new again, and the turnaround time was impressive. Highly recommend!
If you're looking for someone who is reliable, kind, and honest, this is the place to go. I was informed of the process every step of the way and he was willing to accommodate for my schedule. He even managed to find the parts needed at far cheaper than a normal workshop. He's now my go-to for all the car things.
Outstanding service and advice. My 20 year old Land Rover Freelander was in urgent need of some TLC and Dayne performed miracles to get it back into excellent condition. Cannot recommend him highly enough.
I'm very happy with the car diagnostic service. He arrived quickly after my call and provided excellent service at a fair price. Everything was handled professionally and efficiently. Highly recommend!!!

Common Ford Problems We Fix
Our Ford specialists are intimately familiar with model-specific issues. Here are problems we regularly diagnose and repair:
- Ranger DPF Blockages: Diesel Particulate Filter issues plague Rangers used for short trips. We perform forced regeneration, clean DPF units, and advise on driving patterns to prevent recurrence.
- PowerShift Transmission Shuddering: Dual-clutch transmission issues causing jerky acceleration and gear changes. Regular fluid services prevent most problems; we repair or replace clutch packs when necessary.
- Ranger Clutch Slave Cylinder Failures: Notorious issue on manual Rangers causing clutch pedal to go soft or stick to floor. We replace cylinders and bleed hydraulic systems properly.
- Injector Failures (TDCi Diesel Engines): Common on 2.2L and 3.2L diesel Rangers causing misfires and smoke. We replace injectors, clean fuel systems, and check for fuel dilution in oil.
- Electronic Throttle Body Issues: Fiesta and Focus models experience throttle body failures causing limp mode and poor acceleration. We clean or replace units and perform relearns.
- Cooling System Leaks: Plastic radiator end tanks, thermostat housings, and hose connectors crack causing coolant loss. We replace components with quality parts and pressure test systems.
- SYNC System Malfunctions: Infotainment freezing, Bluetooth issues, or screen problems. We perform software updates, resets, and hardware replacements when required.
