Business Services

Car Diagnostics

Car Diagnostics

We have invested in the latest diagnostic equipment which is updated monthly to ensure we have all the latest data for current and upcoming models. The equipment plugs into the vehicle via its OBD port that allows our equipment to interface with your Engine Management (ECU). By doing this we can get live data from the vehicle (to check things are running how they should), Fault Codes (which could be the reason your Engine Management Light is on), Service Reset and many other functions.

  • Latest Equipment;
  • Fully updated;
  • Fully Trained Auto Technician.

Diagnosing faults with vehicles is a science. Anyone can change components but whether it will make a difference, or cost you a lot of money, no one is to know. Getting advice from different sources is not always helpful either. Many symptons can be linked with more than one fault. That is why we recommend allowing us to use our diagnotic equipment to gather information from your vehicle. With newer vehicles the fault codes are becoming more precise and we can retify the fault quicker.

MOT Test

MOT Test

Getting an MOT test is a legal requirement, but it doesn't need to be a costly one.

At ARC MOT we're an official MOT testing station, providing reliable MOT testing for Class 4 and 7 vehicles. The MOT can be carried out while you wait, giving you the chance to discuss any car problems with one of our team of professional and friendly technicians.

Once you have had an MOT test with us, you will automatically be put onto our MOT reminder system, therefore you will be sent an MOT Reminder letter, or if your prefer we can text or Email you approximately a month before your next MOT is due.

As we believe in providing a personal service, we want to build an ongoing relationship with our customers so we can also book you in to take advantage of our other facilities to correct any faults with your car before they become a costly problem.
