Systems management diagnosis
Engine management diagnosis on modern vehicles can be a complicated task. Many
garages will tell you "it is impossible to estimate in advance the time it
will take to identify a fault" and will tell you their hourly labour charge,
and say things like
"it takes as long as it takes" and "it could be hundreds of pounds".
This is not helpful to the customer. We are Mercedes experts and deal with
multiple Mercedes vehicles every day and as a result we learn the common faults
that occur enabling us to pass on savings to our customers in diagnosing times.
I'm sure some of you think we speak a foreign language when it comes to vehicle
systems - and you're probably right! - but sometimes we cannot immediately
identify what the customer is asking us to fix, and it isn't always apparent
when we first check the vehicle. At other times, like going to the doctor, the
vehicle doesn't play up the day you bring it in.
Tips and hints when asking for a diagnosis:

1. Give us as much information as possible. (i.e. Does the
problem happen all the time or only when it's hot or cold. Do any lights on the
dash-board flash etc.)
2. Bring the vehicle in the night before if the problem only
occurs when it's cold, and be prepared to leave it the next night for a check
the following morning.
What we are trying to achieve is a speedy, effective repair that costs you as
little as possible (but make a modest profit) so we are here the next time you
need us!!
We also carry out diagnosis on ABS (Anti-lock Braking) and AB (Air-bag) Systems.
