🔧 Gears being skipped, harsh shifts, and a transmission warning on the dashboard. Three problems, one cause.

A failed pressure sensor inside the mechatronic unit was behind this 2020 VW Golf's erratic behaviour. Our specialists diagnosed the fault and completed the repair in a single visit.

Something a little less German arrived at Smiths of London yesterday for its annual MOT 🇯🇵🇬🇧

And honestly, for a 26-year-old Nissan, this has to be one of the most immaculate cars we’ve ever had the pleasure of testing! 😍

Absolutely immaculate condition and a real credit to its owner. 🙌🏻

Some cars just deserve a little extra appreciation! ❤️

🔧 An engine management light. An oil system warning. And absolutely no explanation.

Mr P's 2018 Range Rover Velar had thrown up dashboard warnings out of nowhere, and he needed to know why.

Our technicians identified the Range Rover P25A9 fault as a failed piston cooling oil control valve and resolved the issue in a single visit.

There's a system in your Audi you hope you'll never have to rely on: the SOS emergency call.

But how would you know if it had already failed?

When Mr R found a red SOS light and a fault message on his Audi A1 dashboard, he brought it to Smith's of London, Croydon.
Our Audi specialists took a structured approach to identify exactly what had gone wrong.

This stunning Audi RS6 came into Smiths of London with multiple GPS faults and loss of SOS functionality. 🔧

Using our Technical Stage 1 evaluation process, we created a precise test plan and carried out bypass testing to pinpoint the fault. The issue was traced to a failed coaxial cable running from the telematics control module to the aerial behind the rear bumper.

Rather than replacing the complete rear wiring loom at huge expense, we custom-made a new cable to repair the circuit correctly and efficiently. 👌

New cable installed, GPS and SOS functions fully restored, and another RS6 back to full health 😁

Five and a half weeks to wait for a Range Rover service?

Mr N wasn't prepared to let things slide.

Instead, he brought his Range Rover SVR to Smith's of London, Croydon. He received a full service, wheel alignment, and air conditioning service, all completed to manufacturer standards without the long wait.
