MOT Testing
Billcar offers DVSA-authorised MOT testing for vehicles from class IV to class VII, including cars, taxis, minibuses, and commercial vehicles. Our experienced technicians identify and resolve issues to ensure compliance with road safety standards. We provide transparent advice and competitive pricing, starting from 45, to keep your vehicle legally roadworthy and safe.
Engine Reconditioning
Specialising in Nissan, Ford, Mitsubishi, Toyota, and Isuzu engines, we recondition petrol and diesel units for 4x4s, commercial, and passenger vehicles. Our process restores performance and reliability while using high-quality parts. This cost-effective alternative to replacement extends engine lifespan and maintains optimal functionality for demanding applications.
Chassis Treatment
Our underbody and cavity wax protection treatments prevent corrosion on cars and light commercial vehicles. The durable, flexible coatings resist wear and moisture, safeguarding critical structural components. This service enhances vehicle longevity, particularly in harsh weather conditions, ensuring continued structural integrity and resale value.
Heater Matrix Replacement
We replace faulty heater matrices in Nissan Navara D40 models using superior copper and brass components. These materials improve heat transfer efficiency and corrosion resistance compared to original aluminium units. Most replacements are completed within a single working day, minimising vehicle downtime while restoring cabin heating functionality.
Intercooler Pipe Modification
Our intercooler turbo boost pipe kits enhance turbo performance by reducing heat and improving airflow efficiency. Compatible with Euro 3, 4, and 5 engines, these modifications increase power output and acceleration response. We supply and fit hot and cold pipe kits tailored to specific vehicle requirements, ensuring reliable performance gains.

I would definitely recommend, fitted a new duplex timing chain to my nissan Navara d40 13 plate 85,000 miles, so happy with the results running so much better without all the chattering noise from before. A long way to go but well worth it, thanks guys , I will use you again if I need anything doing in the future

Popped in this morning as I was passing. I had a small oil leak from underneath truck, drove out 1hr later with oil leak fixed and issue with 4wd system resolved . I only expected dave to have a quick look and order the parts in for a planned revisit. Very knowledgeable and extremely honest and helpful.

Billcar Ltd fully rebuilt my Nissan Navarra D22 Engine after it suffered the dreaded Nissan D22 Big End failure, its quieter and runs smoother now than it did when it was new, well worth the cost for a professional job!
