🔧 2010 Skoda Fabia – ABS Pump Running Continuously

We recently attended a 2010 Skoda Fabia after the customer reported that the ABS pump was continuously running, even with the ignition switched off.

We started by connecting our diagnostic equipment and pulling the vehicle’s fault codes. This revealed a voltage supply fault code relating to the ABS system.

From there, we carried out a number of checks to establish whether the issue was being caused by an external power supply problem.

🔹 Checked the relevant power supplies
🔹 Checked the electrical side of the system
🔹 Confirmed the power supplies were operating correctly
🔹 Disconnected the ABS module to see whether the pump would stop
🔹 Tested the ABS module using our diagnostic equipment
🔹 Attempted to control the pump through the diagnostic system

When the ABS module was disconnected, the pump stopped running.

We were also able to communicate with and attempt to control the ABS system using our diagnostic equipment, but the pump continued running regardless of the command being sent.

After carrying out our testing and researching the fault, the evidence points towards an internal fault with the ABS module/pump assembly rather than an external power supply issue.

💷 A brand-new replacement unit can cost in the region of £400–£600, so we’ve sourced a suitable replacement unit at a significantly more sensible price.

The replacement part is expected to arrive by Monday at the latest, at which point we’ll return to the vehicle and carry out the repair and further testing.

Another example of why proper diagnostics before replacing expensive components can save money and avoid unnecessary parts replacement.

🔧 2009 Ford Fiesta – Starter Motor Replacement & Electrical Checks

We recently attended a 2009 Ford Fiesta that was experiencing a non-starting issue.

The customer suspected the starter motor was the cause, so we carried out a starter motor replacement. The customer was partly correct — on inspection, the earth connection on the original starter showed clear signs of overheating and partial melting, indicating there had been an electrical issue around the starter circuit.

Once the replacement starter was fitted, we carried out further checks, including:

🔹 Starter relay testing
🔹 Power supply checks
🔹 Relay tester checks
🔹 Multimeter testing
🔹 Inspection of the starter and associated wiring
🔹 Confirmation that the replacement starter was fitted correctly

Our checks led us to believe there is a wiring fault within the starter circuit preventing the vehicle from operating correctly.

The starter itself was fitted correctly and the wiring connections were checked to ensure everything was installed as it should be.

Unfortunately, NealAutos UK does not currently undertake wiring repairs, so rather than replacing parts unnecessarily, we have recommended that the vehicle is inspected by a qualified auto electrician to trace and repair the underlying wiring fault.

This is a good example of why replacing a suspected part doesn’t always solve the entire problem — proper testing is important to identify what is actually causing the fault.

🔧 2015 Volkswagen Golf R – Clutch & Flywheel Replacement

Another job completed by NealAutos UK, and a first for us — carrying out a full clutch upgrade on a 2015 VW Golf R as a mobile job, with no workshop ramps. This customer is only chasing a stage 1, which may perform well on the stock clutch but they wanted a fresh clutch just to be safe. Rather be safe, than sorry. Which I agree with heavily.

The vehicle came in requiring a clutch upgrade, so we supplied and fitted an RTS 2-piece clutch kit and concentric slave cylinder (CSC).

During the job, we also identified that the dual-mass flywheel required replacement, so a new flywheel was sourced and fitted while everything was apart. It made sense to address it at the same time rather than reinstall a worn component alongside a brand-new clutch.

Unfortunately, we forgot to get a photo of the clutch kit itself this time — one of those jobs where you’re too busy getting stuck in!

Once everything was reassembled, the hydraulic system was bled and the vehicle was thoroughly road tested to ensure the clutch was operating correctly, all gears were selecting properly and everything was working as it should.

🔍 Additional issue identified

During the work, we also noticed a small oil leak around the sump plug as well as only 2 bolts holding the propshaft on. We did put a bolt inside it. You can see on the edge of the photo with the flywheel fitted.

The Golf R uses a plastic sump and a specific sump-plug design which is intended to be replaced rather than reused. It appears the previous owner had reused the original plug, which had resulted in a small leak.

Interestingly, this was also responsible for a slurping noise coming from around the sump plug area. A replacement sump plug resolved the leak and the associated noise.

✅ RTS clutch kit fitted
✅ New CSC fitted
✅ New flywheel fitted
✅ Hydraulic system bled
✅ New gearbox and transfer case fluid (different fluids)
✅ Sump plug replaced
✅ Full road test completed
✅ Mobile installation — no ramps required

This was a fairly involved job to complete mobile, but it went smoothly and the Golf R is now back on the road and driving as it should.

We’re back at the Porsche today! Sorry it’s the only photo I’ve taken today.

We fitted the customers brand new anti roll bar link/pinch bolt.

We had to measure the opposite side strut from the knuckle to the bottom of the spring holder, making sure we fit the strut in the identical position as the drivers side.

The measurement we took on this specific Porsche was 66/67cm.

The customer is happy with our work, and has recommended us a few times to other customers. We appreciate his service as a customer.

Today’s job — bit of a nightmare (only a bit).

Here we have our lovely customers Porsche Cayman, we have been speaking over the last month or two about potentially replacing the passenger anti roll bar linkage, due to a knocking he can hear whilst driving, unfortunately we have not been able to hear this noise, but we trust our customers word as he’s had a few opinions from various garages, etc.

We agreed to do the job of course, now here’s where it gets tricky. Due to never doing this job before on this specific vehicle we wanted to be sure we can get it done. So watched a video on another Cayman, and when you loosen the pinch bolt (these and quite a lot of Porsches use this design), unfortunately the suspension pinch bolt (also the anti-roll bar linkage), was seized in place.

Due to this, we had to heat the rear of the knuckle up with a some fire. And collectively this took 90 minutes 😂

However, the customer had ordered the wrong anti roll bar linkage, so we’ve had to leave the car stripped down. Luckily the customer has another car he can use in the meantime whilst the correct one comes. I believe we are supplying the new correct sized one, so once we find the correct one we will be ordering it and fitting it the same day.

We understand that bolts do sometimes seize in place, and we do take this into consideration when carrying out repairs on ANY vehicle, not just performance vehicles.

Update on the 2015 Golf R (black one) — We figured out that the discs were fitted the wrong way round, so today we swapped the sides over (free of charge of course).

We did some research, so the discs we fitted were Pagid Drilled and Grooved premium line discs, expensive pair.. These discs don’t have a direction on them, and due to not paying attention we fitted them what we thought was the right way, turned out not to be the case. Which is fine by any measure, we came out soon after finding out, to swap the sides over.

The customer is over the moon with honesty and clarity regarding this vehicle.

The way we see it is, it’s an honest mistake. But it’s not the mistake, it’s the way it’s handled. Professionalism, honesty, all go a long way.

We have taken note of this, and can confirm this will not happen again.

Feel free to message us regarding any mechanical work, we specialise on VAGS and Fords mainly however will work on almost anything!

Previous customer got us another full set of disc and pads on yet another 2015 Golf R. This time they opted with standard discs not drilled and grooved.

The same recommendation, to take it easy for the first 100-200 miles.

2015 Golf R in today for a full set of disc and pads.

Customer contacted us regarding his brakes — stated they were making a horrible vibration and wobble when braking, we took it for a test drive and diagnosed it to be the brake discs being warped.

Unfortunately this happens when you fit new disc and pads and then start braking hard the moment they’ve been fitted. To prevent this we recommend to not brake harshly for the first 100-200 miles after having new brakes.

Drop us a call or message for a quote.

£70p/h, £50 call-out fee. £120 minimum charge on weekdays. See cover photo for pricing structure.
