Engine & Remapping
Engine Work, Timing Belts & Remapping
Skilled engine work, timing belt services and ECU remapping, covering running issues, performance problems and essential engine maintenance.
The engine is the heart of your vehicle. Whether you are experiencing misfires, rough running, overheating, oil leaks, or loss of power, our team can diagnose and repair engine issues efficiently and affordably.
Timing belt (or chain) replacement is one of the most important scheduled maintenance items on your vehicle. If a timing belt snaps, it can cause catastrophic engine damage. We recommend replacing timing belts at the manufacturer-specified intervals to avoid costly repairs.
For drivers looking to improve performance or fuel economy, we also offer professional ECU remapping. A remap adjusts the engine management software to optimise power delivery, torque, and fuel efficiency within safe parameters.

Frequently Asked Questions
When should my timing belt be replaced?
Timing belts are replaced at the interval set by the manufacturer, usually based on age or mileage. Replacing it on time is important, as a snapped belt can cause serious engine damage. We can check your schedule for you.
Is ECU remapping safe for my engine?
A professional remap adjusts your engine software within safe limits to improve power, torque and economy. We tune responsibly to keep your engine reliable.
Should the water pump be changed with the timing belt?
On many engines the water pump is driven by the timing belt, so it is good practice to replace both together. This avoids paying for the same labour twice if the pump fails later.
