Feature activation
With the code edited you can benefit from features such as windows rolling down from the remote, brighter headlights, mirrors folding when you lock, auto-locking when you drive off and so on. For select vehicles there are features you can add that the manufacturer never offered. It's almost like it's illegal (it isn't).
Retrofits
Then there are features that need hardware fitting: remote central locking, cruise control, multifunction steering wheels, reversing cameras and so on. Retrofitting is an option, but in modern cars it needs more than a wiring harness and parts: there's programming required. Third-party solutions are now widely available, so you're no longer limited to the dealership's expensive add-ons.
Module reprogramming
For retrofits or faulty modules that need programming, we provide a fully reprogrammed replacement, using data retrieved from your vehicle to restore the OEM configuration it left the dealership with.

Questions people ask
Is coding safe?
Yes, when done properly. We back up the original coding first so any change can be reversed.
Can you code my car at home?
Yes. Coding is done on site with a laptop and the right interface. Book a mobile call-out from £80.
Will coding affect my warranty?
Simple comfort coding is reversible. If you're worried, we can restore factory settings before a dealer visit.
