Who We Are
1st Call Autocare is run by Tony — a specialist with over 20 years of motor trade experience and dealer-level diagnostic equipment. Based in Southend-on-Sea, Essex, we operate both a workshop garage and a fully mobile service unit, so you can choose what works best for you.
We specialise in DPF cleaning, ECU remapping, EGR solutions, carbon cleaning, and vehicle diagnostics for all makes and models. Whether you're dealing with a warning light, want better performance, or just need to know what's going on under the bonnet — we've got you covered.
Over 6,500 vehicles served, 500+ carbon cleans and 350+ remaps carried out last year alone. Our goal has always been simple: professional vehicle care without the hassle, at a price that's fair and upfront.
