FORD SPECIALIST DIAGNOSTICS

Dealer-Level Ford Diagnostics

Modern Ford vehicles rely heavily on integrated electronic systems. Accurate diagnosis requires specialist equipment and platform knowledge.

We use advanced Ford diagnostic tools to identify faults quickly and correctly — avoiding unnecessary parts replacement or misdiagnosis. 

Diagnostics include:

  • Engine and drivetrain diagnostics

  • Electrical and module diagnostics

  • Check engine light fault tracing

Wet belt services include:

  • Wet belt cambelt replacement

  • Oil pump belt replacement

  • Oil pickup and lubrication inspection

  • Oil system cleaning

  • Correct oil specification refill

This is a specialist internal engine repair — far more complex than a standard cambelt job.
