Vehicle Acting Oddly? We’ll Get to the Bottom of it With Our Diagnostics in Brixton | Amtec Motors

In this day and age, it’s important to find a car garage that’s constantly investing in top of the line, technologically sophisticated diagnostics equipment. Amtec Motors, situated in Tulse Hill near Brixton and welcoming motorists from nearby South London locales like Clapham, Streatham, East Dulwich and West Norwood, is that kind of garage.

We ensure we have equipment that’s capable of quickly, and accurately providing diagnostics for even the recent and advanced of vehicles; but we don’t only rely on technology… We combine it with the traditional manner of diagnostics: hand’s on, under the bonnet investigation from trained, and highly experienced mechanics.

Sometimes there’s no substitute for the “old school” approach, especially when attending to some of Brixton, Clapham, Streatham, East Dulwich and West Norwood’s older vehicles. So if your vehicle is acting oddly, perhaps with a change in handling and responsiveness, or you’ve noticed a strange smell or sound emerging from your engine – visit Amtec Motors and we’ll figure out exactly what the issue is. In many cases, we’ll be able to provide on the spot car repairs to get you back safely on the road in no time at all.

Unable to bring your vehicle in? If you’re situated within a 5 mile radius of our Tulse Hill garage, we can provide a complementary pick up and drop off service for your convenience.

How Does Modern Diagnostics Equipment Work?

Modern vehicles are fitted with ECUs, short for Engine Control Units. These keep track of your engine’s performance, while also dictating how it performs by putting into place certain fixed parameters. If a fault is detected, a code is logged.

Our diagnostics equipment can extract this code, which will tell our mechanics exactly what’s gone wrong. It’s a huge timesaver compared with the old way of doing things, reducing the amount of time we need to keep our Brixton, Clapham, Streatham, East Dulwich and West Norwood clients’ vehicles in for testing.
