KAM Servicing Newsletter
Here at
KAM we are here for all your motoring needs this Spring and so if you are
having any car issues just call KAM.
Maybe your MOT is due or you’ve been ignoring a sound for a long time.
Whatever the problem big or small, the KAM team are here to help!!
Our Mots
start from just £29.99 and so why not come and take advantage of our low
prices.
With the holidays approaching we would
advise that if you are planning days out and holidays that you get your car
checked. If you haven’t got time for a full car check, ensure that you get the
engine bay levels and tyres checked. These are very important and if your
levels are running low this can have adverse effects on your car. What may seem
like a small issue can quickly escalate and become an almighty gremlin, which
will prove costly.
Listen
to the professionals and get your car checked.
Before
you embark on your travels just pop down to your nearest KAM Servicing depot
and we will happily check and top up your levels. It is always better to be
safe than sorry and we are sure our customers feel the same.
Another
holiday favourite is dusting off the motor home and taking to new plains far
and wide. Here at KAM Servicing we are Class 7 MOT testers and we can take care
of all your motorhome needs. Our state of the art MOT ramps are designed to
carry out quality repairs and allow us to find and fix any faults that may lie
within. As an independent garage here at KAM we can also offer much lower
prices than the main dealers. So bring your motorhome down to KAM and make sure
your holiday goes without a glitch.
KAM are
the largest independent garage network in the midlands and we bring you high
quality repairs at the lowest prices.
We would
like to inform all of our faithful readers of the great work of the homeless
charity The Canaan Trust. We have been long time sponsors of the Canaan Trust
and we donated as well as being involved in their many fundraisers.
This
year we were involved in their annual ‘Sleep Out’. Many have signed up for
the event which will saw volunteers sleep out on Market Square, Long Eaton on
Friday 19th April.
Our very
own Amazing Antony and Super Sara slept out as well as Benjamin Button
and we are looking for sponsors.
We hope
you will join us in sponsoring and donating to this great cause. The local 6 of
our KAM depots are stocked with buckets, which our generous customers will be
able to donate to.
As well
as this we have also created a website page for all those who can’t get down to
the depots. Just go to www.justgiving.com/kamservicing and
donate as little or as much as you can. The money raised will allow The Canaan
Trust to undertake their great work in helping to house and educate the
homeless in Erewash.
Here at
KAM we are big believers in investing within the community and so we feel
privileged to be such a big part of the community. Our family run business was
founded in Long Eaton and so with such strong ties we could not just sit back
and not act on this increasing problem.
Our boys
are out 7 days a week and have seen the problem of homelessness grown over the
years. That is why we have teamed up with Kevin Curtis from the Canaan Trust
and will be providing full use of our KAM vans.
Let’s
all help to put the problem of homelessness to bed this Easter!!

KAM Sawley To The Rescue
This week we
received a call from a startled Miss G who had experienced a fright while
driving along the road. “It was a large bang that just came out of nowhere Kev.
I am so scared to get back in.” Miss G was shaken by the noise and was stranded
unable to drive and I need of the KAM team’s help.
Our Sawley depot
was the site of the distress call and it was a rather busy morning for the
boys. We had mysteries being solved left, right and center. Would we be able to
help Miss G? I scored the workshops and spotted Diagnostic Dan busy, diagnostic
machine in hand. Tasmanian Trev had his head tucked under another car and it
appeared that the whole workforce was otherwise occupied with the plight of
other cars. Just as I was about to load up the truck myself a familiar voice
said. “What’s next Kev?” It was Flywheel Lee who had just finished one gremlin
hunting mission and was ready for another.
Lee immediately
loaded up the ‘twuck wid da fwashin lights’ and went upon his mission to rescue
Miss G and her Ford KA.
It was not long
till he returned with a more relaxed Miss G and the lifeless car in tow. We
welcomed Miss G with a nice hot coffee and as she explained again how the
banging noise had come out of nowhere and that she needed her car for the next
day. “I know it’s a lot to ask but I am happy to wait here while you work on
it. I just want to make sure it’s safe to drive and I only trust in the KAM
team.”
Here at KAM safety
is key and we do all we can to ensure that your car is at its best. We will do
a number of FREE checks on request if you feel unsafe in your car. Our talented
technicians will find and fix any and all faults. We guarantee high quality
repairs at the lowest prices so just give us a call.
While Miss G
occupied herself with daytime’s finest TV Lee got straight to work with his
preliminary checks.
It was not long
till the famous words rang through the workshop and even caught the ears of
Miss G who raised a smile. “I’ve got it Kev.”
It so transpired
that the frightening bang did not cause as much damage as we had feared. It was
a simple case of a snapped coil spring, which can occur over a period of time.
Speed bumps and potholes can also be the cause of snapped coil springs so be
careful when you drive. A broken coil spring can cause imbalance in the car and
this can be dangerous while you are driving so Miss G had made the right
decision to call the KAM team. Fortunately for her the damage had not been too
damaging to her car or her purse.
Lee called our fantastic suppliers who arrived
promptly with the replacement parts. A new pair of coil springs were fitted with
expert precision by Lee, as coil springs should always be replaced in pairs due
to tensions & balance of the axle and as with nearly all suspension repairs
we would need to realign the wheels. The alignment was reset using our 4 wheel
laser aligning machine and then it was time for a road test. Miss G asked to
accompany Lee so that she could see the results of the KAM team’s hard work for
herself.
They both embarked
on the road test and upon their return both he and Miss G had huge smiles
adorning their faces. “You did it guys. This car is back in the fast lane.”
Miss G said with delight.

Miss D Citreon Calamity
Hello faithful readers this week we have been as busy as
ever as we take on more pf your car gremlins. Now that the clocks have gone
back and the cold weather is slowly encroaching, now is the best time to get
your car checked.
We are very sad to
hear about Hurricane Sandy and the disastrous effects it has had one of my
favourite cities New York. Our very own Senator Shaun has just returned from a
great holiday in the Big Apple and thankfully he came back just in time so that
he can continue to beat those car gremlins. Our thoughts are with those
affected and we hope everyone stays safe.
We would like to
let everyone know that our 8th depot in Stapleford is now open. Our
new depot is located at Hickings Lane, Stapleford, Nottingham, NG9 8PA. We are
very happy to see how the next chapter in the KAM team will unfold. The new
depot will be fronted by Motor Mass and he will be joined by Wheelie Wayne and
Joyful John. They will be able to take on all your car faults so call them
today on 0115 9252525.
This week our Heanor depot was the site of engineering heroics and it was where we received a visit from Miss D. She came to our garage in quite a panic and she was quite startled by her car’s recent developments. “Kev you have to help me. My car is having so many problems and I need it for tomorrow. This could not have come at a worse time.” Miss D explained that her Citreon C2’s engine stoplight had appeared that morning and the car was not driving well. “Kev the engine light came on so I checked the levels and it was not boiling up. Then the car kept slowing down to 30mph please help. I start my new job tomorrow I need my car.”
Miss D was desperately in need of the KAM team’s help and so we gave her use of one of our courtesy cars and she was able to get on with her day. We then got to work and Diagnostic Dan was this week’s mystery solver. First he observed the car to see if there were any visible faults. After a short while he then found that a problem may lie within the coolant temperature sensor. But we could not go on a hunch and so we would need to test it. So Dan removed the coolant sensor and tested it with his state of the art oscilloscope. It was a new diagnostic machine and so Dan displayed it with pleasure as he awaited the results. Before that though he put the sensor in cold water and just as we expected the reading were off. The temperature read 91 degrees. This was most unusual and the machines released the results. Much like the lines on a heart monitor it was clear that this sensor had flat lined.
Dan shouted out the famous words “I’ve got it Kev.” It so transpired that the coolant temperature sensor was in fact faulty and in need of replacement. It had been sending false messages to the brain of the car (the ECU) and this had been the reason for the appearance of the light and the slowing speeds. Dan called our fantastic suppliers who arrived with the part promptly and it was fitted with military style precision. The wiring was checked the coolant levels topped up and the car was ready to go. He then got behind the wheel and turned the key in the ignition. The key turned and the car came roaring back to life. “We did it Kev. This car is back in the fast lane.”
Miss D arrived
later and was ecstatic to have her car back and ready to go for the next day.
“Wow Kev I can’t believe you fixed my car in such a short space of time. You
lot are lifesavers. I knew I could trust in you.”
You can leave

So until next week faithful reader, drive safely and keep it
shiny side up.

Mr S's EML Emergency
Hello
faithful readers this week as the winter chill overcomes we have been very busy
tending to your broken down cars. I must warn you that extreme weather
conditions can cause a multitude of problems within your car and so I must
suggest that you get your car checked by the dedicated KAM team. Here at KAM we
want to keep you safe and so we will happily undertake a free safety check on
your car and as the checks are no obligations it is up to you whether you want
the repairs undertaking. We will ensure that your car receives the attention it
deserves and that all repairs are undertaken at a price that suits you.
The dragon slaying and heroics continue here
at KAM and this week was no different. Although our mechanics had to show how
dedicated they really are when we received a call long after our 7 depots had
closed. It was on a Sunday night that we received a call from Mr S, who called
our emergency number because he was in such a predicament. “Kev I read about
your 24 hour recovery and I need your help. My car has broken down and I don’t
know what to do.”
Mr S had become stranded on the M1 near Sheffield, his car
had been cutting our intermittently and now the EML (engine management light)
has also surfaced. We did not hesitate, we sent out our ‘twuck wid da fwashin
lights’ to rescue Mr S and we dropped of a courtesy car so that he could get on
with the rest of his week uninterrupted. As an added component Mr S was also
one of our serving troops abroad and would be deployed later on in the week. So
we would need to fix the car so that Mr S could make his way back to Portsmouth
in a matter of days. The car in
question- a Seat Altea- was taken back to our Sawley depot ready for one of our
mechanics to get to work urgently.
The next morning the boys arrived nice and
early and it was the turn of Diagnostic Dan to take the wheel on this one. The
Seat lay lifeless and it was not long till Dan had hoisted the car up onto the
ramp and was already making his preliminary observations. When these
observations did not show any visible faults Dan then hooked the car up to one
of our state of the art diagnostic machines. After a short while the results
were released from the machine and the famous words rang out. “I’ve got it
Kev.” It so transpired that the induction hose pipe, which is made of rubber
had a small almost undetectable hole in it. This had in turn led to an
inability to build boost pressure within the car. This had been the reason for
the car cutting out and the appearance of the EML light.
All
that was needed was a new induction hose pipe, which arrived promptly from our
fantastic suppliers and Dan fitted it with meticulous attention to detail. The
engine fault codes were then cleared and the moment of truth was here. Dan sat
behind the wheel and turned the key in the ignition and... The car roared back
to life. “We did it Kev. This car is back in the fast lane.”
Remember our 24 hour emergency service is
open to all customers just go to our website at www.kamservicing.com
for all the details.

can leave your comments, questions and queries at www.twitter.com/kamservicing and on our blog at www.drkev-kam.blogspot.com

KAM beats London prices to save Mr M hundreds
Hello faithful readers, this week has been another hectic week at KAM as we welcome more and more of your cars into our workshops. The boys at KAM have been taking on your request for the ‘holiday checks’ I recommended last week. Remember if you are going away in your car make sure to bring your car into KAM so we can keep you and your family safe. We will check all levels, tyres and brakes and you can have a fun filled holiday with no risk of breaking down. Another thing to consider in this erratic weather is the air conditioning and we here at KAM are offering free air conditioning checks so make sure to come down and take advantage of our great prices.
Now not only was
last week busy for the KAM team but it has also been a busy week for Nottingham
and Derby with the arrival of the Olympic torch. We have had the privilege of
seeing some of Nottingham and Derby’s finest proudly represent our area by
brandishing the historic flame. We here at KAM were lucky enough to see the
runners and we had a great time cheering everyone on and experiencing the air
of patriotism. With the Jubilee and now the Olympics we have been able to
celebrate a lot this year and there is hopefully more to come with Andy Murray
at Wimbledon, could this be his year?
Now back to this
week’s adventure it was Friday when we received a visit from Mr M who
coincidentally arrived at our Beeston depot in yet another van. Here at Beeston
we have seen an influx of van drivers recently and we welcome them all as we
help to get our loyal customers back on the road. If you have a van that is in
need of repair bring it down to KAM and we will get you back on the road in no
time.
On this particular
day Mr M arrived in his Vauxhall Vivaro van and had come quite a long way to
test the KAM boy’s services. “Hello Kev I have heard nothing but great things
about you boys from my parents and they said I would not be sorry.” Mr M was
from London and had been having problems with his van recently. He was a
self-employed electrician and was back In Nottingham for the weekend to see his
parents. It was on his father’s advice that he had bought his van down so that
the KAM team could help him out. “Kev I have been told that the air
conditioning condenser need replacing as well as new cam belts and apparently
the water pump needs changing.” This was a scenario that the KAM team are used
to. When another garage says that work needs to be done it usually means that
they want to extract more money from you. Here at KAM we do the correct testing
and only undertake the necessary work. Mr M also added: “Kev I have been quoted
over £1500 for the work and I just think even for London that is extortionate.
I also need the van back for Sunday please say you can help.”
We assured Mr M that we would find and fix any faults that
lay within his car and that we would do it a price that he would be happy with.
We were also shocked at the estimated price as it seemed very high for the
parts needed. He was then whisked away
in one of our courtesy cars and we had a deadline so we got straight to work.
Diagnostic Dan got to work and started to rigorously test
the van to see where the problems lay. After a short while the infamous words
rang out “I’ve got it Kev.” it was clear that the diagnosis had been correct
and that we would need to replace the air conditioning condenser, replace the
cam belt and the water pump would need to be changed. However we were certain
that it would not cost £1500.
Dan called up our fantastic suppliers and the parts arrived
promptly and Dan used his military style precision to ensure that the van was
put back together properly. “We did it Kev. This car is in perfect condition,
and at a fraction of the cost he’d been quoted.”
Mr M arrived later and was ecstatic to have his van back in
such a short amount of time and was even happier at the price of the repairs.
“Wow Kev I am so glad I decided to come to the KAM team. You are kings among
men and I can’t believe your repairs were nearly half the price I was quoted.
I’ll definitely be back.”
