Great Service
I recently got a screen retrofit for my car and I couldn't be happier. Raj was incredibly friendly and professional throughout the process. The installation was seamless and it has completely transformed the look of my interior. He even went the extra mile to help me fix an existing error on my screen. Highly recommend his services!
Knowledgeable
Knowledgeable, thorough and professional. They can unlock a good number of options at reasonable prices.
I’m a US Customer with a 2024 GLE580
I’m a US Customer with a 2024 GLE580. I got my car tuned and wanted my display to update horsepower and they were able to code in my car to read the accurate horsepower and torque, give me the AMG screens, and was able to code my car to show AMG GLE. 10/10 experience
intelligent multibeam…
That coding intelligent light multibeam Mercedes it is very good 😊
Easy installation of a superior product
The entire experience of enabling ILS+ features on my 2022 Mercedes EQS sedan was easy. The required dongle arrived quickly, and the programming was quick (ca. 25 minutes). The guidance through the programming is clear and easy for a non-technical person to follow. Implementation of the full features of ILS+ substantially increases might vision while eliminating the potential for blinding oncoming drivers with high beams.
Seamless from start to finish
Instructions on installing DISTRONIC PRO components were easy to follow with clear pictures provided for key steps. All of the parts supplied for the retrofit were genuine MB in new condition packed well for transit overseas. Coding took about 20 minutes with constant communication through WhatsApp providing instruction to turn the ignition on/off at certain points. Future coding will definitely be through RJ Automotive. Money absolutely well spent.
Helpful and Smooth Remote Coding
The coding was fast and smooth. From checking what possible, making appointment, to the remote coding all are excellent.
If I had to sum up RJ Automotive in one…
If I had to sum up RJ Automotive in one word: brilliant.
These guys really know what they’re doing and made light work of everything I asked. They installed and calibrated adaptive cruise control and also sorted a fault on my Hermes control unit with no drama at all.
What stood out most was how reassuring and transparent they were throughout. They kept me informed at every step and were clearly more interested in doing the job properly rathe than chasing money, which is rare and refreshing in this trade.
I’ll 100% be using them again. Highly recommended.
DIY dashboard upgrade with remote coding service.
After a lot of research I decided to use RJ Automotive to upgrade my Mercedes dashboard. I chose the DIY method. RJA supplied the parts required and coded my vehicle remotely. The process was a breeze from start to finish.
Remote coding
Got some coding done remotely. Fast, easy and efficient. Price is good too. Nothing to complain whatsoever!
Outstanding Service and Expertise - ACC Retrofit Completed to Perfection
I cannot recommend RJ Automotive highly enough! I approached them to have Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) retrofitted to my vehicle, and what initially seemed like a straightforward job turned into a much longer journey due to unrelated issues with my car that had absolutely nothing to do with their workmanship.
Despite this, the team at RJ Automotive were incredibly patient, supportive, and professional throughout the entire process, which spanned approximately 8 months. They went above and beyond to help me diagnose and work through the underlying issues, always taking the time to explain things clearly and offer guidance where needed. At no point did I feel rushed or dismisse; their commitment to getting everything right was evident from start to finish.
Thanks to their persistence, expertise, and genuine willingness to help, the ACC system is now fully installed and working perfectly. It’s rare to find a garage that combines technical excellence with this level of customer care and integrity.
Absolutely outstanding service. I’ll definitely be returning and would strongly recommend RJ Automotive to anyone considering specialist retrofit work or looking for a team they can truly trust.
Upgraded Distronic
I ordered an OBD and new buttons for my A250e which came very quickly. I then booked a coding session the next day to install Active cruise control (distronic pro).
I then followed the easy instructions to replace my steering wheel buttons which took me 20 mins.
I then messaged to ask a question and was offered to do the coding in 20 mins..
When the coding was complete, I went for a drive and by the time I returned home, active cruise control was working.
The whole process was very easy and done remotely using a laptop and the OBD provided.
I did make an error in thinking it had failed because I wasn’t turning on the cruise control with the limiter button, but once I put my readers on and pressed the correct button! Bingo lol
Excellent service
Extremely knowledged and great company to deal with
Huge thanks to the team at RJ Automotive. They were professional, extremely knowledgeable in Mercedes cars and genuinely supportive from start to finish. They took the hassle away from me, whilst having a focus on cost and not just trying to charge for unnecessary parts. RJ Automotive took ownership, diagnosed the real and present issue and saw it through to completion. So refreshing to deal with a team and company that doesn’t give up and truly stands by their work. Highly recommended.

10/10 would recommend!
10/10 would recommend!
Quick and easy coding process, was able to activate features I didn’t know my vehicle could have. Super flexible and friendly people to work with. If you’re a newer-model MB-owner, definitely give this company a look for any customizations you might like!
good service
good service, but could be better communication, didn't always reply to question and no personal when they were remote coding.
