I would like to thank everybody who has supported me with starting tarka line garage, but I have had to make the tough decision to shut. As most of you know I took on another job earlier in the year and ive been trying to juggle keeping the garage open and a full time job. Unfortunately I cant keep doing both so the garage has to go. Im afraid I cannot take any more work on, anyone booked in is still ok. Again I really appreciate the support ive had, even if not every job went to plan.

Thanks Edd

Haven't posted in a while... here's a quick little repair to a wiper linkage on a freelander. New linkage arms sourced and fitted for a fraction of the price of a complete mechanism. 👌

One job from last week. Ford smax with am engine light on and dpf plausibility codes. After a bit of playing the pipe from the dpf to pressure sensor was found to be burnt out. A new section of rubber hose sorted the job out 👌

Another diagnosis this week on an aircon system on this lovely volvo. Customer complaint of no cold air was confirmed. First step is to put the aircon machine on to make sure the correct amount of gas is in the system. Once this was confirmed it was on with the bosch kts to confirm the car was seeing pressure in the system and that it was trying to actuate the compressor. Next step was to break out my favourite tool the picoscope yo make sure the command for the aircon compressor was good. In this video you can see the solenoid on the back of the pump is being grounded by duty cycle and also the bulb that's glowing is to check the wiring under load conditions (bright bulb is good wiring). The final test, and most fun, is to give the solenoid a gentle tap with a hammer to see if it frees off. Unfortunately for the customer a new aircon pump is required.

One of the diagnostic jobs in this week. A stunning Audi SQ5 with an intermittent loss.of power and engine light. A fault code scan with our bosch kts showed faults for swirl flap stuck shut and stuck open. A quick inspection of the motor showed heavy carbon build up. The motor and inlet pipes were stripped and cleaned then reassembled with no faults occurring on road tests. 👌
