Built for UK motorists

Family car with an MOT due, a warning light you cannot explain, or a used purchase to vet? AutoModu brings checks, AI guidance, parts, and garage booking into one account so you act before small issues become expensive surprises.

Buying a used Golf

Problem: The seller says the MOT is clean and the mileage looks fine on the clock.
Consequence: Skip the history check and you could inherit advisories, clocked mileage, or tax you did not budget for.
Solution: Run MOT and mileage checks, then book a pre-purchase inspection at a listed garage before you hand over cash.

EML on the morning commute

Problem: The engine management light lit up on the M25 and you are not sure how urgent it is.
Consequence: Ignore it and a small fault can turn into a failed MOT, limp mode, or a repair bill you did not plan for.
Solution: Scan the dash, ask AI Mechanic in plain English, then book a mechanic with your notes and photos attached.

Driving into London

Problem: You need to cross the ULEZ with a diesel you bought outside the capital.
Consequence: Daily charges add up fast if the car is non-compliant. A surprise bill can wipe out a weekend trip budget.
Solution: Check ULEZ and tax status for your registration before you travel, then plan servicing if emissions work is due.

MOT due in three weeks

Problem: Last year's MOT showed corrosion advisories on the rear floor and you have not booked yet.
Consequence: Leave it late and you risk driving without a valid MOT, fines, and a failed retest that needs urgent parts.
Solution: Review MOT history, compare local workshops, and book a slot while parts and diary space are still available.

Checks, scans & AI

Each tool works on its own. Together they build a clearer picture before you spend money at a garage or on parts.

Check

MOT history & tax status

Buying a used Golf? See MOT timeline, advisories, and tax expiry before you hand over cash. Miss this and you could inherit someone else's failed items.

Open Check

Mileage & fraud signals

Clocked mileage hides wear and future repair bills. Cross-check odometer patterns where data is available so inconsistencies show up early.

Open Check

ULEZ & clean-air zones

Driving into London without checking can mean daily charges you did not budget for. See zone compliance for your registration before you travel.

Open Check

Vehicle status snapshot

Quick overview tied to your registration: tax, MOT window, and flags worth acting on before the next journey.

Open Scan

Warning light scan

EML on the dash and no idea what it means? Photograph your dash for plain-English context and sensible next steps. Not a substitute for a workshop.

Open AI

AI Mechanic

Describe the noise, smell, or light in your own words. Get UK-focused guidance, cost ballparks, and video pointers before you call a garage.

DIY insight vs professional repair

At home / on the drive

Checks, scans, and AI Mechanic help you prepare questions, prioritise spend, and avoid surprise bills. They do not replace hands-on diagnosis where safety is involved.

In the workshop

When you book through AutoModu, your uploaded photos, fault codes, and check history go to the workshop before the car arrives. That shortens the diagnostic clock and builds trust on both sides.
