Be the best you can be

A must do course

It was a cool great experience at TTHQ, content from the theory to practice different , techniques how to do certain things and the whole process.

Great course content which will help improve our business.

Best training around. Thank you all

Great relaxed atmosphere, the learning was excellent and picked up some good knowledge.

Lecturer and course were both full of detail and information and gave me a different way to diagnose faults would 100% recommend this course to any technician wanting to get a better understanding of Ad Blue and NOx systems

The workshop time is invaluable to the training to see what you learn in the classroom and how to test and evaluate

My first time at TTHQ and it didn’t disappoint. Course was brilliant from start to finish, Kev was brilliant made sure everyone understood before moving on and shared some real life experiences with us.

Money well spent on this course, very informative and opened my eyes to some of the problems that we are incurring on Nox emission faults, looking forward to my next course at TTHQ

Another great course attended at TTHQ, guys are very good, and give good advice. Been using a scope for years but a refresher and some new test sequences they have developed are good. Thanks Rob

Fantastic course, defiantly feel a lot more confident using my scope to improve my diag skills and fix rate. Will highly recommend this course to anyone and will be back to do more in the future.

Great course and the right balance of system understanding and real time measurements. Wilf very knowledgeable on the subject area and with a very high technical knowledge!

A well professionally delivered course with excellent detail and content over two days covering every aspect of scope set up,functionality ,tests and waveform analysis. Non intrusive,quick and precise diagnostic techniques excellently presented by Rob Drinkwater .Can highly recommended to anyone looking to up their game on this subject. Thank you to all at Tech topics .

Great course as always, I feel more confident now taking on more complex repairs using the bmw ista system. The information at your fingertips with this system when you know how to use it is mind blowing. Amazing service from james and the team as always. Thanks guys.

Wilf was a great instructor that always gave a confident answer to even the trickiest questions. Thanks

The way James covers everything is amazing any questions answered in such detail to give you the understanding of the system

First course with you and really enjoyed it learnt loads plan to come back also bring my son who works for me

Fantastic place to come and get clued up on your chosen subject, everything explained in detail and testing methods demonstrated brilliantly. Friendly and welcoming environment with an awesome array of biscuits come tea time. Always look forward to coming on training at TechTopics.

Course was full of good information

Course with typical James style, depth in knowledge serve with easy to understand words and lots of humor . I will be back again! and I said it 20 times already.

I really enjoyed the fluid nature of the training. Using a current issue for one of the other trainees as a case study was brilliant as well. I feel ready to go back to my garage with ideas for improvement. Of course the burgers were fantastic as always.

Another amazing experience with Technical Topics! I used to be scared of working on EV’s – Not the case anymore. Highly detailed course and all my questions answered got me EV READY ! THANK YOU!

Incredibly good training with a sensational tutor. He goes the extra mile. Well done James and thank you

Very good course and put across in a very well explained way

Excellent course highly recommended course content very interesting completely different take on what I expected pure fundamental learning great 2 days

I enjoyed learning about adblue systems and piecing together some of the knowledge I have gained from experiential learning and research. I have a better over view off how to tackle my diagnostic strategy. I have attended James’s training programmes in the past and gain skills from them. I am looking forward to moving forward with my skills base and attend training in the future.

Love all courses at Technical Topics

Really great course James with lots of useful tips. I am looking forward to putting into practice what I have learnt.

James is very knowledgeable on vehicle systems and explains in great detail on the subject and systems involved. He has a wealth of innovative ideas and experienced with his unique ways to help you diagnose problems on a vast amount of varying systems. I have known James since his Crypton day’s where he delivered all the latest technology courses and he is an exceptional individual and great teacher and instructor. Another great course being delivered by James at Technical Topics

Another fantastic course by James and Tech Topics

Would just like to thank you very much for running this course, It really opened my eyes to what can be done with just a few clicks here and there… Looking forward to the next course.

Wilf was a great tutor. The guys at tech topics are very knowledgeable and very down to Earth. Highly recommend

Did the oscilloscope 2 day training , part of the Diagnostic Technicians course . Thoroughly enjoyed it and picked up so many tips and tricks with the Picoscope. Looking forward to many more trips down to TTHQ. Thanks you

Excellent course with great content from theory in the classroom to practical skills in the workshop. Thank you

My first time training here,
Great course with helpful and resourceful trainers.
Was happy to chat with and discuss the next steps in future training.

Always a great experience at TTHQ. The knowledge that is available to tap into is extremely deep.

I have attended the VW EV Specialist course which I found it extremely interesting and quite fruitful in regard to specific and explicit knowledge gaining. It will sure help me in general on my EV garage work.

Really enjoyed the jumping in at deep end this time, I found less classroom time and more work shop worked for me better I understand this isn’t case for everyone but the higher level stuff we learnt was brill, thanks again!

Great course, so much information and just delivered in the right way. Hope to be on a few more courses.

Overall the course was fantastic, and covered a lot of content that i otherwise may have struggled to understand. I now feel more confident tackling situations at work that require a level of mechanical understanding.

Outstanding Quality and Value is given throughout! Thank you TTHQ

Amazing thought provoking course! Have started the implementation of new processes that will reduce the stresses of diagnostic work.

Absolutely fantastic course, great guys and look forward to future courses

The knowledge and delivery of the course content is second to none. I knew nothing about Eeprom and coding and am more than confident now to dive straight into it back at work.

great course and very well delivered. great content with a healthy blend of practice and theory.

First time visiting TTHQ2, and first time meeting some of the staff. It was a great experience and such a well thought out and highly equipped workshop. Looking forward to coming back later in the year.

A must training course very well presented and totally mind blowing experience .I enjoyed it tremendously have learnt so much about what goes on inside the box highly recommend to anybody wanting to up their game in this very fascinating subject thank you Rob and James for an amazing 2 days can’t recommend this course enough.

From the enrolment to the e-learning and the assement, TT have always gone the extra mile. For a slightly more mature gentleman, they were patient and explained everything in clear terms. The facilities are really excellent and the knowledge of James and Wilf is second to none. Great value. Hoping to be back very soon

The only reason I didn’t tick every box was because the course isn’t over yet! Looking forward to the rest of the journey!

Great experience, extremely knowledgeable instructions who are truly passionate about what they do. Looking forward to the rest of the course.

Always excited to attend a course at TTHQ. Always feel I’ve learned loads and filled in gaps of my knowledge on each subject. Resulting in increased confidence when returning to the workshop. 4 rights is the only way. Look forward to my next course.

I’ve done the diag tech course and I’m just over halfway through the master tech programme and I’ve enjoyed every minute of both courses, there no doubt that I’ve become a better technician through attending and i can but thank you for the efforts and coaching you’ve invested in me over this time, thank you. As for course content its remarkable to re learn about things that I previously thought that i considered i knew about already, to a level that really far surpassed what i was expecting and again to have that in depth knowledge makes hard days a breeze.

I had a very basic understanding of Adblue systems and attended the course to improve my knowledge and diagnostic process. This was my second training course at TTHQ and again was so impressed with the information and course content. Their unique approach to problem solving and the ability to pass that on is first class.

Awesome as always the golden hour course has helped me with my process no end thank you

I regard James as the best technical trainer in the UK, his laid back calm approach gives you the confidence to ask questions. Looking forward to putting the newly learned process into practice ! Thanks again James.

The welcoming and unrivalled training was a joy to do presented in a professional and light hearted way a real really enjoyed the learning experience feel much more confident in my approach and plan in tackling diagnostic jobs now thanks James and the team .

A brilliant course, having attended many courses at Technical Topics, the 4 rights and the Core Diagnostic Process are not new concepts to myself, with this course it goes into fine detail of these principles and the fantastic benefits of using James’ ruthless logic, and The Core Diagnostic Process, a process in which is a series of ordered tests to determine what is correct with the vehicle (at some point, driven by logic, correctly ordered testing and data to support decisions) where you will arrive at the correct cause of the fault. The course also highlights personal misconceptions and areas of personal development which l urgently require to address. Thank you James, Bev, Wilf, Kev .all the TTHQ staff I have failed to mention (sorry) and to all my fellow attendees/students for a fantastic course and a very enjoyable two days.

Great Course with lots of content covered , excited to put the plan into action , looking forward to further courses in the future

Really helpful to see the equipment you wouldn’t normally come across on an ev and its operation

Brilliant training course. Broke down the diagnosis process to simplify the fault. Came out of the course lit up like a Christmas tree with all the light bulb moments i was having through the two days listening to James

” Thanks James and the team for a great couple of days. As always a very enlightening course by James. You may think you know a subject but as always seems to be the case, you go home looking at things in a very different way. Thanks James and the team for a great couple of days.”

Great course very informative!

Fantastic, brilliant courses, dealt with the root causes of high NOX emissions not just the SCR side and it’s associated faults. We also had a customer vehicle which was under going repair which greatly enhanced the experience. James delivered this course with his usual excellent style which really helps to underpin the information he’s teaching. Thanks James and all staff at Technical Topics

Very good course, very good info and as usual James was on form.

Excellent training

Very good information about all systems that were covered, practical demos were excellent on showing us how to carry out many tests but more importantly what we should be seeing etc

In depth knowledge of AdBlue and awesome test methods Honestly one of the best courses I have been on at TTHQ. In depth knowledge and awesome test methods.

Gives you a full understanding of how AdBlue Systems Work This course was one that was really needed as it gives you a full understanding of how all the systems operate, its described in a clear way that you can put straight into practice. The course structure is very good and you also get the simple pitfalls to avoid and gives you diagnostic path to get it right. James and his team pass on all the expertise so we can become better technicians and without this great training environment i would not be able to make the big diagnosis we now make on a daily basis. Keep doing what your doing as its what this trade needs constantly to keep up to date.

This course takes the mystery out of Adblue, over time I start seeing changes to cars that have happened after I left the main dealers. Definitely a good idea to know why something like this is fitted, how it works and how to diagnose. When customers ask me what does it do, I can now tell them a bit about it. I also found that this course answers questions to problems I have had in the past. Lots of new knowledge, cheers Matt

“Absolutely amazing course this really was! I’ve been on a number of courses now at TT, this (as ever) was second to none. The content, venue, delivery, and course notes were all top drawer! Possibly my favourite course to date. Highly recommended to anyone thinking about enrolling. I’ve used the learned material to fix quite a number of AdBlue/SCR system faults since. This course undeniably made the faults much quicker and more easily solved!”

Diagnostic Boot Camp with James Dillon: Extremely knowledgeable and experienced trainer and diagnostic technician. The course had a great mix of content from detailed and innovative diagnostic techniques to overall diagnostic approaches, such as dealing with customers. My second course at Technical Topics and will not be my last. Highly recommended training and facilities; I also enjoyed the burgers! ;0) Thank you!

Diagnostic Bootcamp what an amazing course. James is so knowledge and explains things everyone will understand. Thanks for a great 5 days.

Highly recommended. Recently went on the Diagnostic Bootcamp and was very impressed. The training style certainly helped me absorb a vast amount of knowledge in 5 days. Even with different skill levels of people on the course I felt everyone came out of it having improved their knowledge and approach to diagnostic work, I certainly did.

A great course to learn about all the new systems and technologies being used on this new EV platform. Being a VAG specialist it definitely gives us a head start as we are starting to see these in for service already. Highly recommend this course.

It was an excellent course which provides a comprehensive idea about VW EV platform
Thanks for the trainer and for all Techtopics team

Excellent course with detailed information relating to the VW ID3 Electric Vehicle MEB platform. Rob the tutor was really good in delivering the course and had excellent subject knowledge. Thanks for looking after us for the whole 3 days and also providing lunch, which was excellent.

Just back from taking the ADAS course at Tech Topics. As always James and his team are brilliant. There is no such thing as a silly question, never be afraid to ask. If you don`t know the answer, you will when you leave TTHQ. The ADAS course is a must for anyone serious about getting into this field. Having now attended i know which way i`m heading with regard equipment purchase. I now cannot wait to get myself on the EV Bootcamp.

Excellent ISTA course, very well delivered by Wilf, very informative and left with confidence in using ISTA. I believe TT training to be better and more in depth than any main dealer training I’ve attended.

Thank you all so much for a well put together course. Your knowledge is second to none, your training aids were great and I learnt so much.
Kind regards

Left today feeling like I can tackle most Nox related issues that come my way, from start to finish of the course I felt it made complex issues explained into segments where it was so easy to get head around. Love the pace of the training also, basic understanding to whole class being able to do complex maths channels on the pico. Last two days made me feel lucky I can call days like these part of my ‘job’. Thanks all.

A course that challenges you to change your mindset towards improving your efficiency and reducing your stress in diagnostics. Being in the diagnostics for more than 20 years now I strongly recommend this course especially for the young people who are getting into diagnostics now.

The training at TTHQ for the ODIS diagnostic system was truly remarkable, largely due to the expertise and dedication of the trainers. Their guidance and knowledge transformed what could have been a daunting task into an enlightening and empowering couple of days, leaving me equipped with essential skills for success in VAG diagnostics.

A brilliant course, really liked how James presented it, very knowledgable and speaks and teaches in a manner which I can certainly learn from

Always a good presentation easy location to get too and wonderful training staff

Was a brilliant course and I will be coming back for more soon

This was the first course that I attended will definitely be booking more with Technical Topics

As always a superb course, great trainers, with every day faults diagnosis techniques taught and practised. Thank you Technical Topics

The Oscilloscope Masterclass was an absolutely great course and I totally recommend it for all professional technicians that are using or thinking to put a scope in their diagnostics arsenal. A must tool for every modern garage. The course content was superb and the inputs by all Tech Topics trainers was outstanding and really shifted the learning level of the course to the sky. Thank you guys for one more superb training course.

Excellent facilities at TTHQ, very welcoming environment and highly knowledgeable staff who are very passionate at what they do. This shows tenfold during course delivery as you can see they love passing their knowledge on to all who want to become better as I do.

Pleased with the information provided to help me better my skills at work. Looking forward to putting it to practice

Good pace learning. Get time to think about things after every explanation. James is a very good trainer. Would 100% recommend. Definitely alot more involved in ad blue and nox systems than I thought and from day 1 starting making everything clearer.

I thought the course was the best I’d been on.

Well equipped workshop.

James explained things really well and in a way which was easily understood

Really good course ,one of the best that I’ve been on, everything
explained really well by James

Being new to the motor trade the Road to Technical course has helped me to fill in some of the blanks when discussing technical aspects of customer’s repairs. The course content went in to enough detail to be able to expand my knowledge.

Really enjoyed the ODIS course. Was great to see the capabilities of the equipment as it operates in such a different way to any other diagnostic equipment I’ve been used to.

A really enjoyable pace and style of learning from Rob which aided the learning experience, we shall certainly be back for more training.

I thoroughly enjoyed my experience at TTHQ EV Level 4. Professionally run with an exceptionally relatable instructor, comfortable learning environment and a well structured training programme, it’s the best technical training I’ve ever attended. Thank you 🙌

Good course content, tailored to our needs when required and well presented.

Worth the travel from the top of Scotland. Will definitely be back for more training with the amazing trainers full of knowledge.

Absolutely amazing learning experience. Rob and James are absolutely golden. I’m not one for learning, but I was sat and compelled to listen to those two. The most knowledgable fellas I’ve heard speak. Would recommend for anyone

Very knowledgeable team, Very down to earth and will share all tips and secrets that they know, The hands on training felt very real compared to other companies I have been too. You know that your being trained by people that actually diagnose cars.

Brilliant course and now have new methods to carry out diag quick. James explained everything well and is very knowledgeable. Food was brilliant and look forward to doing another course

Thoroughly Enjoyed The Diagnostic Bootcamp Course, Very Knowledgable Trainers, Informative Content and Overall Walked Away With A Refined Diagnostic Process and New Angles To Diagnose Vehicle Problems Within The Day To Day Workshop Scene. Cheers Tech Topics Team!

As normal a very well thought out and present course with plenty of tangible documentation to support the learning, I particularly like the hands on workshop experiments as these echo real life.
I am always a little nervous when a new lecturer comes along, I needn’t have been!
Great course with I will highly recommend!
