“Fixed my SOS fault on Škoda Kodiaq. Škoda wanted £1400 to replace the whole module and it was repaired at a fraction of the cost in 2 hours. Would highly recommend.”

Specialist car coding and diagnostics in Manchester
North West Car Coding is a Manchester workshop that fixes the software side of modern cars: warning lights, replacement parts, keys and features such as CarPlay. We use dealer-level diagnostics, programming and coding tools, and we look after everyday drivers, enthusiasts and trade customers across the North West.
OUR HERITAGE
Who We Are
North West Car Coding was born from a passion for precision engineering and a deep understanding of modern vehicle electronics. We bridge the gap between expensive main dealers and independent garages by providing specialist software solutions that were once exclusive to factory environments.
Our technicians are armed with the same ODIS, Xentry, and ICOM equipment used in luxury showrooms, ensuring your vehicle receives exact, factory-standard coding and programming.
UNCOMPROMISING SERVICE STANDARDS
What makes us different
The same tools as the main dealer
Using authentic factory interfaces and licensed configurations to ensure safe and correct coding of delicate electrical units.
Fault-finding beyond a code reader
Deep system scanning and state checks going far beyond the scope and capabilities of industry standard generic OBD diagnostic devices.
Hidden features and factory options, unlocked
Unlocking hidden comfort features and enabling factory options with secure, manufacturer-level coding.
Specialist expertise
Years of dedicated training under direct manufacturer platforms, handling complex VAG and Mercedes software architecture.
“My Mercedes A-Class suddenly kept coming up with an adaptive cruise control fault. Main dealer charged £90 just to tell me it needed another £700 to get sorted. Was recommended by a work colleague to give Ahsan a call and he was very helpful. Sorted my issue out for less than £300. Brilliant help. Strongly recommend!”
