Q: I left in my parts how long do I wait to ring you?
A: We would ask that customers wait for us to ring with an update at any one time we have approx. 50+ jobs on the go. We spend a lot of time answering calls of customers looking for updates, this slows down our efficiency and productiveness.

​

We use An Post Parcel Post shipping is generally 1-2 days but this is never guaranteed. If you require an item urgently collection is the best option

​

Q: What is the cost of repair?

The cost of repair can vary significantly between different types of pump and injectors. Once we test we will quote the cost after we get price and availability on parts. We prefer not to give quotes over the phone as there are a lot of variables to factor in and the cost of parts are constantly changing.

​

Q: Is there anything you don't repair?

A: We have stopped accepting Pajero 3.2 Pumps up to 2007 and also Bosch VP pumps with their own ECU's. The cost and quality and availability of these parts is no longer good enough for us to be happy with offering it as a service.

​

Q: Do you keep injectors in stock?

A: We recently added a page showing our injectors that are in stock, if you don't see the one you need it is more than likely special order and you would need to ring us with the part number for more information. You can find the stock page here.  We try keep 1.6 Continental CAYC injectors in stock, but these are an extremely fast mover we advise to check on the day you want to collect or have shipped on the current stock levels.
