Know what your car is telling you.

A mechanic, not a code dictionary

• Plain English, no scare tactics. What it means, what to check first, whether it's safe to drive.
• Cheapest first. It rules out the £5 hose before condemning the £500 part.
• Freeze frame, decoded. The ECU keeps a snapshot of the moment a fault set. The app reads it back as a sentence: "Set on the move, working hard, engine still warming up."
• Reaches the whole internet when it counts. Forums, service bulletins, recalls and real-world fixes for your exact car, so you don't have to post on PistonHeads and get called a noob.
• Knows when a photo would help. If seeing the part would settle it, the mechanic asks for a picture and reads what you send.
• Hundreds of codes explained offline. Instant, free, no signal needed.
• Knows your motor before you say a word. It reads the VIN from the car when you plug in, and any car can be added by its UK reg plate: make, model, MOT history and tax dates looked up for you. You review the MOT advisories and choose which ones the mechanic gets told about.
• A library no chatbot has. Behind the mechanic sits a reference library we researched and built ourselves: facts checked against the actual owner's handbooks for over a hundred cars and vans, generation by generation, plus each model's known weak spots. A chatbot answers from whatever it half-remembers about cars in general. Ours checks the shelf for yours first.
• And the library grows itself. When the shelf is missing something, the mechanic gets extra searches to fill the gap, and what he learns is banked for the next driver with your car. Every question improves the next one's answer.

Sat-nav wired into the car

Turn-by-turn with spoken directions. Speed can read from the car itself or from GPS, whichever you trust more.

• The limit, without asking. The classic roundel shows as you drive, route or no route, and the roads you actually drive answer instantly and offline the second time. Where the map isn't sure of a limit it shows nothing, rather than a guess.
• National limits for your vehicle. On national-limit roads a van gets its 50/60/70 and a car its 60/70/70, worked out from your reg. Most big-name sat-navs still apply car limits to everyone.
• Speed cameras that warn on approach. Earlier the faster you're going, and silent the moment you've passed.
• Fuel, parking and charging in one tap. The Fuel button even lights up by itself when your actual tank runs low.
• Drive mode. Heading-up chase view, speed-scaled zoom, the next turn floating up top. The passenger third swipes between music, live readings, dashcam and a full-size dial.

Put it on the big screen too

Your phone stays the brain. A cheap Android head unit or a spare tablet becomes a second display, drawing your live dials over WiFi.

• Pairs once, like Bluetooth headphones. A match code on both screens, one tap to confirm, then silent auto-reconnect forever after.
• Sat-nav on every screen. Set a destination on the phone and the route, turns and live position appear on every connected display.
• Music from the dash. The head unit's now-playing tile controls the phone's player. Phone in pocket, console on the dash.
