Calibration and certificate
Workshop runs the manufacturer-spec calibration, post-scan to confirm every system is reading, and issues a signed certificate before you leave.
ADAS calibration price tiers
Pricing is fixed across our network. Same price wherever you are in the UK. Your tier is set by what work has been done, not by your postcode or your car's make.
All prices include the diagnostic scan, the calibration procedure (static, dynamic, or both as required), a post-calibration check, and a calibration certificate. No charge for diagnostic if you decide not to proceed.

Frequently asked questions
Mostly yes on the ForTwo, and that's why the dealer quote stings. The ForTwo (453) inherited Mercedes-derived ADAS hardware, and the workshop procedure runs through XENTRY-compatible tooling. Same family, same software stack, same target boards.
The Smart #1 and #3 are different. Those are Geely-platform cars built after the 2022 brand shift, so they don't sit on Mercedes electronics. The forward camera and radar still need calibration after a windscreen swap or front-end work, just through different tooling. Our accredited workshops cover both eras. Send the registration when you enquire and we'll confirm which platform your car is on before quoting.
Because the front radar sits behind the bumper skin, and even a careful refit shifts its aim by a fraction of a degree. The ForTwo's short nose makes the radar sensitive to small alignment changes. A bumper that comes off for paint comes back with the radar position no longer at OEM-spec.
The dealer runs the calibration through XENTRY-compatible tooling against marker boards in a controlled bay. That's what restores the aim. Our accredited workshops carry the same equipment and run the same procedure. The certificate we issue covers you with insurers if anything ADAS-related comes up later.
The #1 carries a wider sensor array. Front camera and radar like the ForTwo, plus surround-view cameras feeding parking and lane-change assistance. After a windscreen swap, the front camera is the trigger. After a bumper repair on the #1, the radar and the front-corner sensors both need checking.
The procedure runs longer on the #1 because there are more sensors to verify. Expect a full bay session rather than a quick alignment check. Our network handles both, and we'll confirm the scope when you send the registration. The base price holds for standard scenarios, and we quote the extra time honestly if surround-view is in scope.
Yes. The #3 launched in the UK in 2023 on the same Geely SEA platform as the #1, with similar forward camera and radar layout. Our accredited workshops carry manufacturer-spec tooling that covers the #3.
The most common trigger we see on the #3 is a windscreen swap, which puts the forward camera out of factory aim. The calibration restores it. Because the #3 is recent, send the registration and the build month when you enquire so we confirm the exact ADAS package on your car. The procedure is fixed-quote once we've checked the spec.
Because the dealer recovers the same Mercedes-derived tooling overhead on a ForTwo as on a C-Class. XENTRY-compatible diagnostic access runs into thousands per year, and the labour rate is set to cover that regardless of which model is in the bay.
A small car doesn't get a small invoice when the calibration procedure is identical. Our accredited workshops carry the same equipment and run the same procedure at network pricing. From £199 fixed, certificate after the job, accepted by insurers and on the car's service history. Same OEM-spec result, without the dealer's overhead recovery built into the bill.
