Unit 12 Leaside, Aycliffe Business Park, Newton Aycliffe, County Durham, DL5 6DE

Monday–Friday, 09:00–18:00. Saturday and Sunday closed.

Choose the service before making the journey

A workshop appointment should have a clear purpose. Use the existing service pages to separate a standard-car remap, a modified build and a fault-finding visit.

Standard-car enquiry

For an unmodified vehicle, start with Stage 1 suitability. Tell the team about the engine, transmission and any previous tuning rather than assuming a registration match confirms every detail.

Read the Stage 1 guide

Hardware already changed

List the turbo, intake, intercooler, fuel-system or engine changes relevant to your build. The specification is more useful than asking for a particular stage without describing the parts.

Explore bespoke work

Engine and gearbox together

If the enquiry includes transmission software, provide the gearbox details. Ask which ECU and TCU options are supported and whether the quote covers both.

Read about combined tuning

Plan the return journey

Confirm whether the vehicle needs to be left and when collection is expected. Arrange your own onward travel once the workshop has confirmed the appointment requirements.

Planning your visit from Darlington

Questions to settle before confirming the appointment.

Where do I bring my vehicle from Darlington?

Bring it to AutoLab at Unit 12 Leaside, Aycliffe Business Park, Newton Aycliffe, DL5 6DE. Confirm your appointment, then use the directions link with your own Darlington starting address.

Can suitability be discussed before I travel?

Use the telephone or contact details with your registration, engine, gearbox and modification information. Ask the team to confirm the appropriate appointment and what still needs checking on the vehicle.

Should I choose a remap if the car is already running poorly?

Explain the fault first. A diagnostic appointment may be more appropriate than booking software work, and identifying the issue before travelling avoids starting with the wrong service.
