For owners and independent specialists
Main dealers charge a lot for jobs that take minutes with the right access, and some won't touch a car with used parts or retrofits at all. Independent garages often have the car on the ramp but not the online access to finish the job. Remote sessions fix both problems.

Right-hand-drive specifics
UK cars run their own software variants: right-hand-drive headlight patterns, mph clusters and UK navigation data. Parts taken from European left-hand-drive cars often need recoding to work correctly in a UK car. I check the VIN and part numbers before quoting so there are no surprises.
Retrofits
Fitted a reversing camera, LED or matrix headlights, an adaptive cruise radar or a different steering wheel? Coding and online parameterisation make it work like factory fit, with no warning lights before your MOT.
Session times
I'm on Central European Time, one hour ahead of the UK. Weekday evenings and weekends work well for owners. Garages can book during working hours.

Frequently asked questions
Do you cover Scotland and Northern Ireland?
Yes. Everything is remote, so anywhere in the UK works.
Can you code a part from a European left-hand-drive car?
Often yes, but some parts are hand-specific. Send the part number and VIN first.
Is Component Protection removal legal?
Yes, when it's done through the manufacturer's official online process with proof of ownership. That's the only way I do it.
Do you work with independent garages?
Yes. Many UK jobs come from specialists who have the car but not the online access.
