Engine repairs cover the faults that stop a car running properly, from overheating and oil leaks to misfires and a loss of power. We fix the common problems on most cars and vans, all makes, and put right what is actually causing the trouble rather than guessing.
Engine faults rarely fix themselves and usually get worse the longer they are left. Knocking or ticking noises, white or blue smoke, the temperature gauge creeping up, a rough idle or a sudden drop in power are all signs to get the car looked at before a small repair turns into a big one.
We diagnose first. We read the car, check the engine bay and work out the real cause before quoting any work, so you are not paying to swap parts that were never the problem. Then we carry out the repair and test the engine before the car goes back to you.
How long it takes depends on the fault and the vehicle, and we will give you a clear idea once we have seen it. Many jobs turn around quickly so you are not without the car longer than you need to be. You get a free quote before any work starts.
Having bodywork and mechanical under one roof in Tottenham Hale keeps things simple. If the diagnosis turns up something else, brakes, a timing chain, suspension, we can sort it in the same place instead of sending you elsewhere. We are open every day from 08:00 to 22:00.
We are at 59 Garman Rd, easy to reach from Seven Sisters, Stoke Newington, Wood Green and Edmonton. If the car is overheating, do not keep driving it. Call us or message on WhatsApp and we will advise.
Common engine faults, sorted
Good to know
My car is overheating. Can I drive it in?+
It is safer not to. If it is overheating, call us and we will advise. Driving on a hot engine can turn a small repair into a new engine.
What are the early signs of an engine problem?+
Watch for knocking or ticking noises, white or blue smoke from the exhaust, a temperature gauge that keeps rising, rough running or a clear drop in power. Oil patches under the car and a burning smell are also worth checking. Catching these early usually means a smaller, cheaper repair, so bring the car in before the fault gets worse.
Do you repair engines on all makes of car and van?+
Yes. We work on cars and vans of all makes and handle the common engine faults: overheating, oil leaks, misfires and loss of power. We diagnose the real cause first, give you a free quote, then carry out the repair and test the engine before you collect it. We are open every day from 08:00 to 22:00 in Tottenham Hale.
