The centre runs the manufacturer-spec calibration and issues your certificate on completion. Any diagnostic scan the job needs is itemised on the quote, never folded in silently.
Toyota calibration prices
Network rates, the same at every service centre, whichever Toyota is on the ramp. Every price is per system, shown inc VAT with the net figure alongside. Your total is confirmed in writing before anything is booked.
Calibration — per system
After a part was replaced (includes coding to your vehicle)
- When your job needs a diagnostic scan, it's £54 inc VAT (£45 +VAT), always itemised as its own line. It shows which systems were live before work started.
- Two or more systems in one visit: the highest-priced system is full price, each additional system is 35% off at a centre. Scans aren't part of the discount. Front camera and front radar together come to £267.30 inc VAT (£222.75 +VAT).
- On mobile trade visits only: if the technician attends and the calibration can't be completed, a sensor fitted misaligned for example, a call-out fee of up to £72 inc VAT (£60 +VAT) applies.
- Mobile calibration is available for garages and bodyshops with workshop conditions. Ask us.

Pre-Collision System fault
PCS warning paired with a Headlight System message on the Corolla, Yaris or RAV4. Same windscreen camera feeds both, why they always flag together.

Frequently asked questions
The forward camera for Toyota Safety Sense sits on the windscreen glass. When the glass is replaced, the camera comes off and goes back on, and its aim shifts by enough to fail the self-check. Many glass companies fit the screen and stop there, so the warning appears on the drive home. A typical case looks like this: new screen on a Corolla or RAV4, PCS and lane trace messages before the car is back on the drive.
The fix is a static aim on the forward camera to the documented Toyota procedure. The target board distance is set per model: the Prius camera sits higher in the glass than most, and the C-HR (2023 onwards) uses the newer TSS 3 mount with its own aim reference. Our service centres carry the procedure for each.
That static aim is a front camera calibration, £162 inc VAT (£135 +VAT) at a centre, with the full rate card on this page. Your quote is confirmed in writing before anything is booked.
Because they share the same forward camera. Toyota Safety Sense on the Corolla from 2019 onwards runs the Pre-Collision System and the camera-fed adaptive headlight logic off one windscreen-mounted camera. When that camera loses aim, after a windscreen swap, a bumper repair or a low-speed front knock, the car can't reliably read the road for PCS or oncoming traffic for the headlights, so both fail their self-check together.
A typical Corolla case looks like this: bodywork finished, both messages on the dash within the first mile. The fix is a static aim on the forward camera through manufacturer-spec equipment, with a front radar aim alongside if PCS still flags after the camera pass. Each is its own system at £162 inc VAT (£135 +VAT). Two or more systems in one visit: the highest-priced system is full price and each additional system is 35% off at a centre.
Yes. The Yaris XP210 (2020 onwards) carries Toyota Safety Sense, with TSS 3 arriving in the 2024 update with the millimetre-wave radar mounted low behind the front bumper line. Any bumper removal disturbs the radar's aim, even when the bumper goes straight back on. The bracket sits close to the bumper structure, and unclipping and reclipping transfers enough force to shift the aim by a fraction of a degree, which is all the radar needs to flag.
The usual sequence: bumper off for a paint repair, refitted cleanly, then a PCS or cruise warning inside the first few miles. The fix is a static radar calibration through manufacturer-spec equipment once the bumper is back on. The radar aim is £162 inc VAT (£135 +VAT) at a centre.
It usually means the forward camera has lost confidence in its view, not that your windscreen is dirty. On the Auris E180 the message appears when the camera behind the glass reports a low-quality image, and it can stay on after the glass is spotless. A typical case looks like this: the screen gets cleaned twice and the message survives both washes.
Once cleaning is ruled out, the cause is the camera itself: aim drift, condensation in the housing, or a physical nudge from a windscreen job or a repair near the mirror mount. The fix is a camera aim check through manufacturer-spec equipment, and a static calibration brings it back to spec: £162 inc VAT (£135 +VAT) at a centre. A diagnostic scan, when your job needs one, is priced and itemised separately.
Yes. Lexus is Toyota's premium arm, and Lexus Safety System+ uses the same forward camera and millimetre-wave radar architecture as Toyota Safety Sense. The calibration runs through the same documented workflow on both and the same target references.
The difference owners notice is the dealer quote, not the procedure. Our service centres handle Toyota and Lexus through the same workshop process, at the same per-system network rate, £162 inc VAT (£135 +VAT) for a camera or radar aim, so an NX or RX pays the same as a Corolla for the same system. Send the registration when you enquire and we'll confirm the model and Safety Sense generation before booking.
Dealer quotes customers have shown us for ADAS work run £300 to £900. Quoted after inspection is the usual framing, so you rarely know the total before the car is in. A franchised dealer prices the job through its hourly labour rate, and the calibration itself is the same documented Toyota procedure either way.
Front camera calibration is £162 inc VAT (£135 +VAT), front radar is the same, with the full rate card on this page. Two or more systems in one visit: the highest-priced system is full price and each additional system is 35% off at a centre. Certificate to manufacturer tolerances, the same standard dealers issue. Your quote is confirmed in writing before anything is booked.
