Car Air Conditioning Service

Auto Workshop is conveniently located just off Northfields Avenue in Ealing.

We offer a full range of air conditioning services including air conditioning diagnostics, re-gas and pressure testing, evaporator deodorising, changing pollen filters and more.

The air con system in your car is a serviceable item. Just as you must change your oils and filters, it is very important to maintain your air conditioning system.

This is because every year the efficiency of your air conditioning system deteriorates by up to 15% due to natural refrigerant losses through hoses and joints. This loss of refrigerant can cause excessive moisture build-up and poor circulation of lubricant which, in turn, can cause component failure. Most manufacturers recommend servicing and recharging your air conditioning system every 2-3 years.

Our Air Conditioning Service Includes:

  • Old oil and gas removed
  • Leaks checked and inspection for cracks
  • Air Conditioning system vacuumed
  • Gas impurities burnt off
  • Tracer dye added to the system
  • New oil added to the system
  • Refrigerant gas added (to manufacturers’ specification)
  • Operating pressures tested
  • Cooling effect tested
  • Further diagnostic investigation or servicing if required.

MOT Test Centre

Call 020 8567 1907 to book your MOT at Auto Workshop.

Auto Workshop MOT Test Centre is conveniently located just off Northfields Avenue in Ealing.

All cars, three years old and over, require a valid MOT certificate by law. The MOT test checks that your vehicle meets road safety and environmental standards, and involves checking approximately 150 items across the following categories:

  • Brakes
  • Lamps, reflectors and electrical equipment
  • Steering and Suspension
  • Tyres and road wheels
  • Seat Belts and restraint systems
  • Body, structure, chassis
  • Exhaust, fuel and emissions
  • Drivers view of the road / visibility
  • Registration Plate

An MOT lasts for a year, and the date it expires is printed on the current MOT certificate. Your vehicle can be submitted up to 28 days before the test is due and still maintain the anniversary of the current test.

If your vehicle has had the previous year’s MOT done by us, we will send you a reminder by post when your expiry date is approaching.

You cannot drive your vehicle on the road if the MOT has run out and you can be prosecuted if caught. The only exception is to make a verifiable pre-arranged booking to drive it to the MOT Test Centre. You can be fined up to £1,000 for driving a vehicle without a valid MOT.

Fault Diagnostics

Auto Workshop is conveniently located just off Northfields Avenue in Ealing

When a warning light or lights illuminate on your dashboard, or your engine starts running rough, a diagnostics check can help identify the problem before more serious issues occur.

Most modern vehicles today contain on-board computer known as Electronic Control Module (ECUs) which continually monitors the performance of the vehicle sensors and reports back to the ECU if there are problems. When an issue is identified the ECU generates an error code. The relevant dashboard warning lights will then be displayed.

There are literally hundreds of potential error codes that can only be read with diagnostic equipment. How much information can be read accurately depends on the quality of the equipment and the expertise of the technician. At Auto Workshop we invest in dealer-level diagnostic equipment. This equipment can interrogate the vehicle system and analyse and compare data readings from sensors, which can then be checked and compared, and the source/cause of the problem identified.

At Auto Workshop we have a highly skilled team of technicians with years of experience and dedication at diagnosing and repairing vehicle system faults including, but not limited to:

 

  • Engine management
  • Anti-Lock Braking Systems
  • Safety Related Systems
  • Comfort Systems
  • Infotainment Systems
