FAQ
What kinds of breakdowns can be fixed on site?
Many breakdowns can be repaired on site, especially if they involve hoses, belts, fuel system issues, electrical faults, sensors, tyre-related problems or minor mechanical failures. Mobile diagnostics can pinpoint faults quickly, which often allows repairs without towing. Some failures may still need workshop-level work, but on-site help can get the vehicle running enough to reach a safer location. The key benefit is reducing downtime and avoiding unnecessary transport.
How can breakdown risk be reduced over time?
Regular servicing is the biggest factor, because it catches wear and leaks early. Keeping fluids at correct levels, replacing filters on schedule and monitoring tyre pressure also makes a big difference. Paying attention to small changes in performance like hard starts, smoke or power loss helps prevent bigger failures. For fleets and plant, preventative maintenance plans are usually cheaper than repeated emergency callouts.
What should be done first when a diesel vehicle breaks down?
The first priority is safety — pull over or shut down in a safe spot if possible, use hazard lights and keep clear of traffic or moving machinery. Turning the engine off can prevent further damage if there’s overheating, loss of oil pressure or unusual noises. Take note of warning lights, smoke colour, leaks or new sounds, as these details help with diagnosis. If you’re on a job site, secure the area and let others know the equipment is out of action.
