Frequently asked questions about engine maintenance

When should timing belts or chains be replaced?

Replacement depends on mileage and manufacturer recommendations. A precise diagnosis allows you to check their condition to avoid costly engine failure.

What are the signs of spark plug and coil wear?

Difficulty starting, misfiring, loss of power or high fuel consumption are often linked to faulty spark plugs or coils.

What does engine diagnostics involve?

Diagnostics uses electronic tools to detect anomalies in the operation of the engine, injection, ignition and electronic systems.

What can performance tuning do?

They optimize engine parameters (ignition, injection) to improve power, consumption and responsiveness, while guaranteeing durability.

Why maintain the injection system?

A clean injection system ensures better fuel atomization, more efficient combustion, lower pollutant emissions and reduced fuel consumption.

Can we carry out these interventions without prior diagnosis?

No, a diagnosis is essential to target the necessary interventions and avoid unnecessary repairs.

What types of engines do you service?

We service all types of gasoline, diesel, GDI and TDI engines, with adapted equipment and parts.
