Mobile mechanic serving Medway, 7 years of experience

22 years of training and fixing heavy duty machinery for huge global companies that’s 22 years of getting precision down to a science. For the last 8 of those, I’ve been channeling that expertise into cars: ...

“Nikos was absolutely incredible, and I genuinely couldn’t recommend him highly enough.

He arrived on time, had excellent communication throughout, and very quickly diagnosed what was wrong with my car. He then carried out a thorough check and identified the two things that needed replacing, clearly explaining the issues and what I needed to do next.

He was able to get my car started, but what I appreciated most was that he didn’t simply leave once the car was running. He followed me in his own car to Halfords to make sure that if my car stalled or broke down again on the way, he would be there to help me. It was only a short local journey, but that reassurance was invaluable. It was a particularly stressful day for me as I had my two young children with me, and knowing that I wasn’t going to be stranded with them made such a difference.

Once we arrived at Halfords, Nikos stayed and supported me through the process of getting the battery changed. He also advised me clearly on the next steps, including the work needed on my alternator, so I now know exactly what needs to be done and can rebook with him for the additional work.

Nikos was knowledgeable, professional, incredibly patient and kind. His communication was excellent, and he went far beyond what I would have expected to make sure I was supported at a particularly vulnerable and stressful time.

I am extremely grateful for his help and will absolutely be using him again in the future. Thank you so much, Nikos, for going above and beyond.”

Frequently asked questions about car won't start inspections in Medway

Read our answers to questions about car won't start inspection costs, symptoms and more.

What happens during a car won't start diagnostic in Medway?

In most cases, the cause is either the starter motor or the battery that is at fault, both of which can be resolved relatively quickly.

If you notice a rapid clicking, but the engine not turning over (or turning over very slowly), it is likely to be the battery at fault. If you get a single click and the engine not turning over, that is likely to mean it is the starter motor.

If the engine is turning over fine, but not starting, then further diagnostics will be required.

Therefore, the mechanic will need to access vehicles electronic control units (ECU) via the OBD port inside the vehicle. Please be aware that on some vehicles these are in covered areas such as under the ashtray, at the back of a storage hole or even in the glove box, so the mechanic will need to remove anything that is blocking access to it.

  • The mechanic will go through the diagnostic error code and read live data to pinpoint the cause(s) of the issue.
  • Mechanic will physically examine the vehicle’s powertrain for potential faults, such as intake air leaks, boost hose leak etc
  • If the cause of the issue requires additional work and parts, the mechanic will provide you with a quotation and a detailed description of the fault(s)
