The level of technology used in vehicle manufacturing today means straight-forward mechanical repairs have virtually disappeared.

For commercial garages like Lancing Commercial, state-of-the-art diagnostics tools have transformed the speed and manner in which we can identify and repair commercial vehicle problems.  But let’s not forget, the most important aspect is still the user.

“our staff have the “old school” knowledge coupled with the electronics, so we won’t blindly follow just the diagnostics; critical if you want to get to the root of the problem quickly and efficiently.”

Professional repairs – by humans!

Our team of mechanics and technicians are all trained in analysing and interpreting the data produced by the diagnostic tools we use at Lancing Commercial. Of course, we still rely on our experienced team to carry out the repairs – we’re not planning to replace our fantastic staff with robots any time soon! 

But joking apart, like any computer system and network, it is not always possible to immediately identify the source of the problem.   Fundamentally, the sensors are just a multitude of binary “yes/no” parameters and we use our experience to consider the most likely cause of the fault, when it is not mechanically obvious.
