Hello faithful readers
it has been another busy week at the KAM depots. As the summer slowly descends
and makes way for the autumn now is the best time to get your car checked. With
the kids back at school and all those wonderful school runs ahead of you, now
is the time to make sure that your car is running right. To make sure that you
are kept safe this Autumn bring your car into KAM and we can carry out a number
of car safety checks absolutely free.
The trusted KAM boys will not hesitate in identifying any problems and
with your permission we will find you the best forms of repair at a price that
suits you.
This week there has been more
excitement with the continuation of the Paralympics. It has been great to see
so many brave young men and women overcome such adversity to compete at the top
of their respective sports. It has been a thrill and I cannot wait to see how
many Gold medals team GB can accumulate.
This week Beeston was
the site for swashbuckling and gremlin hunting as our boys were inundated with
diagnostic mysteries. It was on a particularly busy morning that we received a
visit from Mr H, who arrived in his rather loud Vauxhall Vectra. As he sat
behind the wheel, his car approached and resonating from the car was a loud
chugging noise unlike we had seen in a while.
Mr H entered the
reception after parking up and was very dismayed at the state of his car. “Kev
I don’t know what happened. One day it was okay and then this light comes on
suddenly it is not working…” Mr H explained that in the past week the EML
(engine management light) had appeared but he had momentarily ignored it. But
now the chugging noise had appeared and he needed the KAM team’s help. “Please
say you can help Kev.”
Mr H was a young man who had recently started a new job
and did not have a lot of money to spend on car repairs as he explained. “Kev I
heard you have the best prices and I needs the costs to stay as low as possible.
I need my car for work so I am really hoping you can rub some of your KAM magic
on to my car.” Mr H had come to KAM after reading about us online and now we
had to show him just what the KAM team can do.”
First we took all of his
details and then dispersed him off in one of our courtesy cars. We promised to
keep him up to date with the car’s developments and ensured that all repairs
would be done with his permission and at the lowest prices possible. With Mr H
free to carry on with the rest of his day it was time for us to find that
gremlin.
Diagnostic Dan was this
week’s mystery solver and started by attaching the car to one of our state of
the art machines. It was not long
till the machine released a small piece of paper bearing the results. Dan
perused the paper and the famous word rang out across the workshop. “I’ve got
it Kev.” It so transpired that the
number 4 diesel injector was faulty and was not at the correct pressure. At other garages they may have just
replaced the injector which can incur costs of hundreds of pounds. But here at
KAM we want to bring you the lowest prices and we have the skills and expertise
to fix all problems. We are specially equipped with our very own diesel
injector workshop and we can take on all makes and models of car. We called Mr
H who was very happy to hear that we would be saving him money and told us to
commence with the recommended work.
Dan was easily able to fix the faulty
diesel injector and restore it back to its previous condition. This saved Mr H
hundreds of pounds but also ensured a lasting longevity. The other three injectors
were then cleaned and the fourth one was fitted with military precision. With
the parts refitted it was time for the moment of truth- had we eliminated the
EML light? Dan got behind the wheel and turned the key in the ignition. The car
roared back to light and Dan’s eyes remained on the dashboard after a few
seconds a smile overcame his face. “We did it Kev. This car is back in the fast
lane.”
Mr H arrived later and
was very excited to have his car back fault free. “Wow Thanks Kev, It is so
refreshing to come to a garage that actually puts its customers first and you
really can guarantee low prices. I’ll definitely be back.”
