Description

Are you looking for an automotive diagnosis and/or repair service at the location of your car/truck? Available all year round 24/7. Dealership level expertise and fair pricing. I specialize in Volkswagen and Audi, Mercedes and BMW but I work on all models. Flexible scheduling available, affordable prices, message to inquire about a quote. Stalled on the road and require emergency assistance or repair? I work independently and will service your car at the place of your choosing? Whether it be electrical or mechanical, brakes, suspension or engine related, I can come with the part(s) and install them at your place of convenience. Please message with: Year: Make: Model: problem (with history if possible): I have 10 years experience working as a mechanic. I am certified in electronics and auto- diagnostics and tuning. Mobile Diagnostic & Inspection Services: I offer a wide range of diagnostic services to identify issues in your vehicle’s engine, transmission, EVAP system, exhaust, brakes, and various electronic systems and sensors—as well as performance issues related to timing, spark, fuel, and compression. Pricing: Basic Diagnostic Scan + Visual Inspection: $60 minimum charge This includes connecting to your vehicle’s diagnostic port (OBD-II scan) and performing a thorough visual inspection. ▸ If the issue is minor, I’ll fix it on the spot at no extra cost. ▸ For more time-intensive repairs, my hourly labor rate is $80. You can either supply your own parts or I can source them for you. Buying a Used Car? I offer on-site pre-purchase inspections, which includes: Full diagnostic scan for engine and transmission faults. Inspection for electrical, mechanical, and drivability issues Check for oil or coolant leaks Compression testing to assess engine health ▸ Avoid buying a car with a dead or weak cylinder due to damaged pistons, bent valves, faulty injectors, or bad spark plugs Engine Performance & Misfire Issues or lack or power? If your engine is misfiring, stalling, lacking power, or hard to start (despite a good battery and starter), I can run targeted tests to determine whether the issue is fuel, ignition, or compression-related. Injector balance tests, spark ramp tests, check for short to ground and test circuit integrity (drivers). Even on newer car, with Direct-injection, Over time (80k-130k), carbon builds up on the intake valves of direct-injection engines causing poor performance, rough idle, and reduced fuel economy. Excess carbon on the back of the valves can obstruct air flow. The solution is a 4-6 hour cleaning of the valves. I provide professional walnut blasting service to restore lost power for all turbo and NA engines.. Includes full intake removal, blasting, and reassembly. Optional throttle body & sensor cleaning. I provide a relative compression or leak-down tests can help identify timing problems caused by: ▸ Chain slack ▸ Valve issues or carbon buildup on valves ▸ open or shorted sensors ▸ Faulty or oil starved solenoids ▸ Worn piston rings I provide oscilloscope testing to reveal more advanced timing/compression issues that may be difficult to determine unless extensive work is done to expose the internals of the engine. This will save time and money.. ▸ Relative compression waveform ▸ In-cylinder pressure transducer readings ▸ Cam/crank correlation analysis These tests can diagnose whether your engine is properly timed, whether valves are bent, or if piston rings are sealing properly. Head Gasket & Combustion Leaks? Using a combustion leak tester, I can detect hydrocarbons in the coolant—helping confirm if your head gasket is blown or starting to fail. Timing Chain & Oil Pressure Related Issues? Modern engines rely on precise oil pressure to operate variable valve timing systems. Issues like: A stretched timing chain Faulty cam actuators, phaser or solenoids. Bad tensioners Blocked oil passages ...can all cause drivability problems, even without throwing a code. These issues, if caught early, can prevent catastrophic engine failure due to a jumped or snapped timing chain—saving you from bent valves, damaged cams, or a seized crankshaft due to oil starvation. Electrical System & Battery Problems? If your car is having startup issues or keeps losing battery charge overnight, I can perform: Battery health check Alternator charging test Parasitic draw test using an amp hound and a power probe ppdraw multimeter. ▸ These tests pinpoint hidden electrical drains and help eliminate no-start & driving problems efficiently. Turbo Boost & Acceleration Problems? If your car feels sluggish or is losing boost, scan data can reveal overboost or underboosting conditions caused by a divertor or wastegate that needs cleaning or adjusting (instead of replacing the entire turbocharger). Overheating Issues? If your vehicle is overheating, I can determine whether the cause is a: Faulty radiator fan (module), water pump, or thermostat Bad coolant temperature sensor Electrical problem like a blown fuse, relay, or damaged wiring I work with all makes and models, Domestic: Gm Ford Dodge Chrysler Fiat Asian: Honda Toyota Mazda Hyundai KIA Nissan Infiniti, Lexus. American: Ford, Crystal, Cadillac Europe: Bmw Audi Mercedes Benz, Volvo, Mini Volkswagen Starter Alternator Tune ups, Spark plug / Coils / fuel filter No starts Misfire Timing chain / belt water pumps Suspension Plus more Vehicle Programming, new keys, module replacement and coding, Transmission reset and engine programming. For bigger mechanical jobs (Engine head gasket and transmission replacement, timing chain replacement) please call. Flexible scheduling available, affordable prices, message us to inquire about a quote. I can service in the Brampton and surroundings area as far east as Bellville and West as Mississauga (extra for the travel time)..
