4.0L V8 Bentley Bentayga

Have a peep at what replacing a water pump job entails for this weapon!

Common fault for the vacuum Water pump Solenoid to seize the Sleeve shut, causing the engine to overheat. Coolant works its way up through the vacuum solenoid and sticks. No longer operating!

Front end (a million plastics) & Rad Pack off to reveal the pump situated in the centre.

Redbull 🤝 Me

Summarising these jobs as a headache. Energy drinks carried me on this one!
Watching the taillights leave me is the only satisfaction I get from ball bursting jobs like these😅

•1.6 BiTurbo Vivaro- Big turbo replacement along with brakes, solenoid and service
•Infamous DEATH Bolts on the Audi’s along with the 4 top arms
•W177 A-Class Common Oil filter housing replacement

A cluster of jobs that kept me on my toes, not too many photos for the jobs. 100% dialled in to get them gone🤣

2009 Vauxhall Movano

Was brought into me with a complaint for the rear brakes- No handbrake. Discs were worn & Pitted, Discolouration showing that it’s binding.

Last moment add on was that the coolant was dropping but no visible leak, coolant pressure tested this to confirm. I then checked the oil level as I know of these leaking water from the water pump into the sump as it’s driven off the Timing chain. Level was sky high and sludgy.

(Water pump bearing fails, allowing the pump to open a gap between the seal and block passing water to the oil sump)

All repairs-
Handbrake cables & Adjustment
Caliper
Rear Disc & Pads
Water Pump & Coolant Change
Full service (oil flushed)

Any questions with your vehicle or booking, give me a message via WhatsApp or Instagram📱

Mercedes C180 w204
1.8L RWD

Here I post a complete disaster of a job start to finish🤣 the rust was tremendous, the excessive corrosion on the rear subframe was dangerous as you can see from the photo of the Bush. This was both sides!

This is in fact a common issue with these subframes. (W203/W204 models)

After having to replace practically every Nut & Bolt I touched, every suspension component and the rear brakes. Some rust preventative on the prescribed mounting areas to help reduce the decay of structural integrity. I of course carried out a full Geometry wheel alignment correction. With me distorting and replacing parts to which made the suspension significantly tighter, new Camber bolts etc. The car for sure sits higher, handle better and won’t chew threw tyres🫡

2009 Ford Fiesta 1.2L

Car was brought into me for Excessive play in the track rod ends but after further inspection it wasn’t road worthy at all!

•Excessive corrosion on the sub-frame, with holes.
•Both track rod ends imminent risk of detachment
•Both Inner-Tie rods no threads with corrosion
•Driver-side Coil spring broken
•Excessive play in driver-side Top mount
•corroded Oil filter causing a continuous drip of oil
•Wheel alignment required after all these repairs of course

Quite the list but car is needed for work, made a move on ordering all the parts and had it done a couple days later. Had a nightmare with these chassis Bolts, had to improvise and spent a tremendous time on nearly sorting this. But we made it Fit for the road!

Keeping ontop of your car is vital, especially with the road conditions we are facing nowadays! Up-keeping your safety with regular maintenance, helps make the issues with your car a Preventative rather than a Cure for when it’s too late exclamation‼️

Vauxhall Vivaro 1.6L

Here we had a repair in for an MOT failure along with a couple other repairs. The failure stated that it had an excessive leak of exhaust gases. And boy they weren’t wrong😅

This had been leaking for sometime according to the customer and multiple folk having had sore heads due to the emissions funnelling back into the cab across long journeys. This is a crazy common fault with these Vivaro’s/ Trafic’s. Huge tear down for such a small unit ‼️

Subframe down, exhaust down, Turbo off. I ran into issues with 3 broken studs but nothing a little acetylene can’t sort😁 new gaskets, coolant change, oil change and two Droplinks. Van was as good as new! As long as it’s on its four wheels and road safe, we have a happy customer. Cheers Liam!🫡

Hit the ground running after a well earned break. This year we move onto bigger and better challenges with new goals in sight. The Page has grown rapidly, of course our target is to aim for more🫡

This year we aim for;
more uploads, more description, more network.
Manifesting positivity is key for this journey. I hope to be dealing with many new people and of course maintaining healthy relationships with my current clients.

•This Peugeot 5008 came to me from the Isle of Barra. With no on island mechanics, this customer has been coming all the way to me for sometime now. Building that trust everyone is searching for🤝
A broken spark plug electrode wedged itself down the cylinder wall between the Piston and Bore. Causing lack of compression with piston damage. Cheaper route was a new engine (new engine came with 8k on the clock, supplied and fitted).

•Corsa with an MOT failure, typical subframe corrosion lead to a hole to which seriously weakened the structural integrity to the frame and to surrounding components. Dangerous to say the least! New track rod ends & inner tie rods with Wheel Alignment of course. Interior blower motor bearing collapsed with a burnt out resistor. No defrosting of the windscreen during the harsh coldness 🥶

•Crankshaft Pulley (harmonic balancer) failure due to the rubber dampening destruction. Along with fan belt snapping and wrapping round various other pulleys and firing rubber debris everywhere. Excessive smoke caused a little panic to this customer but it was saved no hassle and on the road she went next day👍

Many more have came through the door but not enough time to document😅 I will be capturing every job from now on out. Aspiring to teach the next person what to do in the event of anything I post happens to them.

VW Caddy 2017-2.0l TDI

These are as simple as it gets for maintenance. On this one’s repair, it was in for a Full timing belt & Water pump kit with a full service.

Having All filters & Fluids changed- Oil filter, Fuel filter, pollen filter, Air filter, Coolant change etc. every service item replaced. Completely refreshing the vans Life.

Couple tyres at the rear it’s needing but this will be done for the customer returning from holiday! Keeping the ball rolling with the Winter Vehicle Health Checks (VHC).
