Specialist Servicing — Haldex, DSG, ZF & AWD Differentials

We are known for our deep understanding of the systems that define modern cars from Haldex AWD systems to Automatic DSG, ZF and DCT automatic gearboxes, and front/rear differentials.


Our technicians don’t just service these systems, we diagnose, repair, and optimise them to factory or better performance.


Every service is carried out using OEM fluids, seals, and diagnostic procedures, ensuring correct clutch adaptation, oil calibration, and long-term reliability. Whether it’s a Golf R, S3, RS3, Cupra, or a ZF-equipped BMW or Mercedes DCT, you’ll receive the same expert care and precision we apply to our own vehicles.
