Service detailBrakes and suspension, set up the way the marque engineered them.
From a routine pad and disc renewal on a 5 Series to a full air-suspension reseal on a Range Rover, we approach the chassis as one connected system — never one corner at a time.
What is included
- Brake pad and disc renewal with marque-original or OE-equivalent friction material
- Carbon-ceramic disc service for Porsche, Bentley, Ferrari and AMG applications
- Caliper rebuild with stainless pistons, fresh seals and slider pins
- Brake fluid renewal with electronic ABS bleed and moisture testing
- Air-suspension strut reseal and bag renewal on Range Rover, Audi, Mercedes and Bentley platforms
- Electronic damper coding (CDC, MagneRide, PASM, ARS, ABC)
- Hunter Hawkeye Elite four-wheel alignment with corner-weight balancing
Signals worth a workshop visit
Pulsation through the brake pedal
Usually disc run-out from heat-cycled rotors. We measure run-out on the bench, refinish where possible and replace where measurement says we must.
One-corner ride height drop
Air-suspension reservoirs and bags are the typical culprit. We diagnose by leak-down test rather than by replacing the compressor first.
Steering wheel off-centre
Often a settled subframe bush or a recent kerb impact. A four-wheel alignment will surface the cause in under thirty minutes.
Crashy ride on uneven surfaces
Tired top mounts, worn anti-roll bar links or a leaking damper. Our scope check confirms which corner is responsible before any part is removed.
Why we measure on a Hunter Hawkeye Elite
Most prestige cars left the factory with a specific ride-height window, a defined caster split and a corner-weight target. A standard alignment rig will only set toe and camber. The Hawkeye Elite measures all sixteen primary geometry parameters in under three minutes per axle, with photographic before/after reporting.
For track-focussed cars we go a step further with corner-weight balancing on calibrated scales — useful any time the suspension has been disturbed or the car has been raised or lowered.
