Need more like Adrian!

An honest man with integrity. Adrian for you who don’t know him. Didn’t oversell me or undersell me, kept it to a hundred and gave me very useful information on my car's performance and capabilities. I was also looking at having some work done in regard to walnut blasting. Adrian advised me on the situation and what to look out for. Because of Adrian, I was able to avoid someone who was going to sell me a lie and perform a task that would’ve completely ruined the engine. I had two cars booked in and both cars fire like brand new! Considering one had 130K on the clock and the other had over 200K. Because of his service, my car engine light no longer appears (I had this diagnosed twice and found nothing having spent close to £150 for both combined) For those of you who have doubts, I would definitely recommend Adrian at F5ECC. He knows what he’s doing! Reliable. Honest. Value for money.

Had Adrian come out to do a carbon clean on my Nissan 350z. I expected the clean to only have some minor effects, however I was pleasantly surprised. It feels like a completely different car, throttle response is better, has even regained some horse power that it's lost over the years! Fantastic customer service overall and an insanely knowledgeable person when it comes to diagnostics. 10/10 Recommend!

Engine diagnostics

I was very pleased with the diagnostic service that was provided along with the detailed explanation on the engine condition of my Mercedes c class car (47000miles 2.1 diesel) . I believe the car is also running smoother following the carbon clean. With regards to the auto stop start issue you recommended to have a health check on the battery and its cranking capacity is down by a third. Although there are no starting issues this is obviously low enough to prevent the auto stop start function. Booking was easy and the agreed appointment date and time was met. You were courteous and knowledgeable and I would recommend your service to others, thanks again. Ken .

Bought a second hand car that had a few problems. Lucky for me car had a warranty with it.Called adrian and he meet me same day to do a diagnostics on my car .He soon identified all the problems and explained them all to me and sent me a full report to my phone so icloud send it off to warranty company. That job has now been sorted. I have now had a carbon clean and car is running 100% better. I would highly recommend this company if you have any problems with the way your car is running.

Car failed MOT twice, advised by tester to try this otherwise I was looking at just over £1500 to fix and the car wasn’t worth that. Others told me I was wasting my money it will never work…..How wrong they were car was retested and passed. Adrian was so thorough explained everything to me. He really was the nicest person you could wish to meet. Such an honest, trustworthy and genuinely nice man which seems to be rare in the car repair industry.

Hi Adrian, im sorry I didnt get back to you sooner. I was a bit emotional to be honest and so overwhelmed. You are a genius and I can't believe how nice the car feels and the power increase is amazing, the response and acceleration. It has better mileage aswell! I really appreciate your service. To have a 207K mile car honestly feel and drive brand new is hard to believe! You really are a Gent. Thanks for being so honest and I appreciate the full transparency. Bless you always kind Sir 🙏

Great service from Adrian at F5ECC for LR Discovery DPF red light
Customer Service

Adrian from ECC East Midlands (F5ECC) was brilliant. Punctual and communicative, he provided very clear, detailed diagnostic information so I knew what was happening and what my options were. My 2018 LR Discovery went straight to a red light for DPF full and he was able to reset warnings, including a service warning missed recently by the main dealer, so the auto regeneration could successfully run. This fixed the problem and for my family and I, who were only visiting Leicestershire, it was a massive relief as we were able to resume our holiday and get home without further problems! Excellent service, highly recommended.
