Mobile mechanic and diagnostics specialist covering Leeds. 20+ years on the tools, modern fault-finding kit, fair prices and no hidden costs. We turn up where you are — driveway, work car park, side of the road — and we tell you straight what your car actually needs.
Cars used to be all spanners. Now they're half scanners too — full of sensors, ECUs and dashboard warning lights nobody seems to want to explain.
I'm , the bloke behind Spanners And Scanners. Twenty-plus years working on motors — apprenticed on old-school stuff, kept up with every diagnostic system since. I bring both sides of the trade to your driveway: the kit to read the fault, the experience to know when the kit is lying to you, and the spanners to actually fix it.
No upselling, no "computer says". Honest prices, plain English, and the same standard of work I'd want done on my own car.
EAST LEEDS · LS15
Most jobs done on your driveway in a single visit. Bigger jobs (engines out, gearboxes) we'll quote up front — no surprises, no fluff.
Engine management, ABS, airbag, transmission. Read fault codes, interpret live data, find the actual cause — not just the symptom.
Pads, discs, calipers, fluid, handbrake adjustment. Squeaks, judders or warning lights — sorted on your driveway, often same day.
Interim, full and major services to manufacturer schedule. Oil, filters, plugs, fluids — service book stamped, all checks documented.
Slipping, juddering, dragging or smell of burning clutch? Full clutch kits supplied and fitted at fair, fixed prices.
Belts and chains replaced to schedule — water pump and tensioner kits where recommended. Skipping this one snaps engines.
Battery testing & replacement, alternator output checks, charging system diagnostics. Won't start? We'll find out why and fix it.
Wiring, sensors, immobilisers, dash warning lights, central locking, parasitic drains. The stuff other garages give up on.
Buying used? I'll come and check it over before you hand the cash over. Mechanical, electrical, diagnostic scan — full honest report.

"Engine management light came on a week before a long drive. He plugged in, found it was a knackered O2 sensor, had it on the next day and back to running like new. Knew his stuff and didn't try to flog me anything I didn't need."
"Couldn't get the car off the drive — turned out to be the alternator. He came out the same morning, tested it on the spot, fitted a new one before lunch. Brilliant. Saved me an AA recovery and a garage stay."
"Two main dealers had quoted me a small fortune for a misfire and neither could fix it properly. He had it diagnosed in 20 minutes and sorted by the end of the day. Honest pricing, talked me through it all. Won't use anyone else now."
"Used him for a pre-purchase check on a used Golf. Spent over an hour going through it, picked up a slipping clutch the seller hadn't mentioned. Saved me at least £600. Worth every penny — proper job."
"Brakes were grinding so I phoned Friday afternoon expecting to wait. He came out Saturday morning, did pads and discs on both fronts on the driveway, all done in two hours. Fair price, neat work, cleaned up after himself. Top bloke."
