How Garages Are Adding
£2,000–£10,000+ a Month

Two minutes that explain the entire dealer model. What you do, what we do, and where the margin comes from.

Watch First The Platinum Tune Dealer Model

You upload the file. We do everything else. You keep the margin on every job.

The Opportunity
If your income is tied to labour alone, your growth is capped.

Most garages are already seeing the right vehicles. BMW, VW, Audi, Ford, Mercedes. They come in every week for servicing, diagnostics, and repairs. But without tuning, every one of those visits is money left on the table.

The issue isn't customer flow. It's margin per vehicle. Platinum Tune exists to fix that Simply, quickly, and without turning your garage into a tuning specialist.

More Revenue, Same Vehicles

You don't need more customers to earn more. You need a higher return from the ones already walking through your door. Every suitable vehicle is a missed tuning sale without a dealer file service.

Stop Referring Jobs Elsewhere

When a customer asks about tuning, do you send them down the road? Every referral is profit leaving your business. Becoming a Platinum Tune dealer means you keep that work in house.

No Expertise Required to Start

The biggest blocker isn't technical. It's confidence. Dealers don't need to develop files or understand tuning theory. Upload, receive, write back. That's it. We handle everything else.

Simple Process

How The Dealer
File Service Works

Four steps. No tuning knowledge required. Repeat for every suitable vehicle that comes through your door.

01

Read the File

Use your compatible ECU or TCU reading tool to pull the file from the vehicle. Takes minutes. No specialist knowledge beyond operating your tool.

Dealer portal upload
02

Write Back & Earn

Download the file, write it back to the vehicle using your existing tool, hand the car back, and keep the retail margin. Pay only for the file you processed.

Watch The Full Process, End to End

Read, upload, receive, write back. No tuning knowledge needed at any stage.

Then charge your customer, keep the retail margin, and move on to the next vehicle.

Common Questions

What Garages Ask
Before Getting Started

What does it cost?

What tools do I need?

A compatible ECU reading and writing tool such as Flex, Autotuner, KESS3, or similar supported systems. If you already perform diagnostics, there is a good chance you already have a compatible tool. Contact us if you are unsure.

How long does a file take?
