EnginE repairs for modern vehicles

Modern vehicles are built with precision engineering, incorporating advanced electronics and mechanical systems that work in perfect harmony. At Kreskas Automotive, we specialise in diagnosing and repairing complex engines and transmissions, ensuring reliability and performance for both daily drivers and high-performance builds.

​

Engine Repairs for Modern Powertrains

Today’s engines are designed with tighter tolerances, lightweight materials, and integrated electronic systems. This improves efficiency and performance but also means that repairs require specialist knowledge and tooling.

​

We provide:

​

Electronic Engine Diagnostics
Using factory-level diagnostic platforms, we can communicate directly with the ECU, read live data streams, and perform component-level testing. This allows us to accurately identify faults with sensors, actuators, and control modules, avoiding unnecessary part replacements.

​

Cylinder Head & Valvetrain Repairs
Issues such as worn valve guides, collapsed hydraulic lifters, or stretched timing chains can lead to misfires, oil consumption, or loss of compression. We carry out machining, valve seat cutting, and head resurfacing, while upgrading components where necessary (e.g., Inconel exhaust valves, nitrided intake valves, and high-performance valve springs for tuned engines).

​

Fuel & Air System Repairs
Direct injection systems (GDI) suffer from carbon build-up on intake valves, affecting airflow and efficiency. We use walnut blasting and chemical cleaning methods to restore flow. High-pressure fuel pumps and injectors are tested for correct delivery rates and replaced with OEM or upgraded units if required.

​

Forced Induction Systems
Turbochargers and superchargers operate at extreme RPM and temperature. We inspect for shaft play, oil leaks, and boost inefficiencies, and can provide both OEM replacements and performance upgrades.

​

Complete Engine Rebuilds
For severe damage or performance upgrades, we offer full rebuilds, balancing rotating assemblies, blueprinting clearances, and installing forged internals where higher boost or RPM is required.

TRANSMISSION REPAIRS FOR MODERN VEHICLES

​Modern transmissions have evolved beyond simple gear trains. With mechatronic control units, precision hydraulic circuits, and adaptive learning software, repairs demand advanced expertise.

​

We handle:

Automatic Transmission Servicing & Overhauls
Modern automatics rely on fluid pressure, solenoids, and clutch packs. We perform full fluid exchanges using OE-specified fluids (ZF Lifeguard, Mercedes ATF, etc.), and overhaul valve bodies, torque converters, and clutches when required.

​

Dual-Clutch Transmissions (DSG/DCT)
These systems combine manual gearbox efficiency with automated control. Common issues include worn clutch packs, faulty mechatronic units, and software calibration errors. We can repair or replace mechatronics, reprogram TCMs, and install upgraded clutch packs for higher torque handling.

​

Continuously Variable Transmissions (CVT)
CVTs use steel belt and pulley systems, which require precise calibration. We diagnose belt slip, pulley wear, and control module faults, performing repairs or replacements to restore smooth, efficient operation.

​

Manual Gearboxes & Clutch Systems
From worn synchros to bearing failures, we perform full manual gearbox rebuilds. We also install upgraded clutch systems (organic, ceramic, twin-plate) depending on vehicle application and power output.
