WORKSHOP Maintenance

Performance-Aware Maintenance

We understand cars that live above 6,000 rpm. For tuned/spirited-use vehicles we offer: Oil analysis & interval planning based on use (street vs track). High-temp consumables (fluids, pads, hoses) and heat-management upgrades. Dyno health checks (baseline power, AFR, knock, temps) to spot issues early. UpRev/ECU calibration sanity checks after hardware changes.

Our Process

Initial inspection & road test to document symptoms and baseline feel. Digital report with photos, priorities (Safety → Preventative → Nice-to-have) and transparent pricing. OEM-spec or better parts, torque to factory specs, fluids to manufacturer standards (or performance alternatives where appropriate). Quality control: torque audit, leak check, fault-code clear, short road test. Handover with service stamp, next-service reminders and care notes.
