Can you service my Audi without invalidating the warranty?

Yes. Under block exemption regulations, an independent garage can service your Audi using genuine Audi-specification parts and oils without voiding your warranty. We record all work and can stamp your service book.

My Audi DSG gearbox is juddering or slow to respond — what causes this?

DSG hesitation or judder often points to overdue gearbox oil, worn mechatronic unit, or clutch pack wear. We carry out a diagnostic scan and assess gearbox condition before recommending oil change, adaptation reset, or component replacement.

Do you work on Audi diesel models with DPF problems?

Yes. We diagnose DPF faults, forced regeneration issues, and emissions system faults using Audi diagnostics. We advise on regeneration cycles and long-run requirements.
