Dealer-level know-how, independent pricing

Our team spent years inside major European dealerships before building Real Automotive. Dealerships have the technical knowledge, but it comes with steep labour markups, long waits and rigid corporate processes. Generic workshops are cheaper but often take a one-size-fits-all approach that doesn’t suit complex European engineering.

At Bosch Car Service – Real Automotive you get both: dealership-grade diagnostic precision, OEM-spec Bosch components and digital logbook updating, with transparent, personal service and far more competitive pricing.

What we do for European & prestige cars

  • Logbook & CBS servicing: Servicing to the manufacturer’s exact schedule with the specified oils and fluids, Condition Based Servicing for BMW and MINI, and your logbook stamped so your new car warranty stays intact.
  • Fault code scanning & ECU coding: Factory-level diagnostic software to read every control module, find the root cause and code new components to the car.
  • Battery & BMS registration: Every battery replacement is registered to the car’s battery management system so it charges correctly.
  • Direct-injection & fuel systems: Diagnosis and carbon cleaning for GDI, FSI and TFSI petrol and common rail diesel engines.
  • Cooling systems: Electric water pumps, thermostats and plastic coolant unions, refilled with vacuum-filling equipment to purge air pockets.
  • Suspension & AWD: Multi-link aluminium suspension, active steering and electronic AWD systems such as xDrive and quattro.
  • Brakes & electronic park brakes: Pads, rotors and EPB service-mode resets done to factory procedure.
  • Climate control: Dual-zone air conditioning diagnostics and blend door calibration, from our ARC-authorised workshop.
