2012 Skoda fabia in today, electric window and central locking not working on the drivers door caused by broken wires between the door pillar and door, repairing the wires is an option but the best solution is to replace the door wiring loom which I've done, now everything is working and no need to open the door at Costa drive through! Also in today a 2009 fiat 500 for an exhaust and battery.

2013 citroen c3 in for MOT, failed.on emmissions, tried the obvious cheap solutions but emmissions still high, time for the diagnostic tool which told me that the catalytic converter was aged and lost its efficiency and also both oxygen sensors weren't working properly, so unfortunately for the customers wallet a new converter and two new sensors were fitted which solved the problem, also in today a 2016 fiat 500 x for a service and an old rover 45 for a welding repair, busy day, next job, go to the fridge and get myself a shipyard !!

New customer with a 2012 Nissan juke is complaining that it is undriveable over 30mph, the car wanders all over the road, its been to two other garages who have not been able to find a fault, that worries me slightly, will I be able to find anything, I'll get it on the ramp first and see if I can see anything obvious, after looking for half an hour of jacking the car up and checking for faults in the usual way, che king that all suspension bolts are tight, nothing. Time to take it for a drive, and yes the car is undriveable, dangerous, accelerate over 30 mph the car veers to the right, come off the accelerator the car veers to the left, there's definitely something wrong, back on the ramp, I noticed the front tyres aren't too good and the back ones are fairly new, surely it can't be down to the tyres, I'll swap front to back and back to front, after removing the nearside front wheel i spot it, the front bush in the fairly recent new part had failed, the opposite bush was also starting to fail, two new suspension arms and the car drives as it should again.

Recently had a 2015 Ford ecosport in for MOT and service, failed the MOT because the emissions were too high due to a broken flexible exhaust pipe which unfortunately is part of the catalytic converter costing hundreds of pounds to replace not to mention the time it would take to change it, luckily AtoZ supplied me with a replacement flexible pipe, cut the old one out (don't cut too much off!) and fit the new part, passed the MOT and saved the customer a lot of money!

Yesterday's task, replace clutch on a semi automatic Peugeot 107, before you put a spanner on the car the clutch actuator has to be retracted using a diagnostic tool, not much space to work in, everything put back where it should be and driving properly again, clutch actuator has to be reprogrammed.
