About Us - Energy Tuning

Based in Ashington, we specialise in performance and fuel economy tuning on most modern cars and light commercials.

We also specialise in DPF cleaning and repairs and were the founder member of The DPF Doctor network.

The company was formed in 2008 by Darren Darling. Darren is a vehicle technician and diagnostics specialist with 36 years experience and also overseas the training and technical support for The DPF Doctor network.

We take immense pride in our work and treat customers vehicle’s as if they were our own so your pride and joy will be treated with respect while in our care.

We aim to bring you high-quality affordable tuning services without any technobabble and will always give you honest advice, rather than tell you what you want to hear just to get a sale. We will only remap your vehicle if we are satisfied with our pre remap health checks including data logging. This is not just a quick code read as we will be monitoring fueling, boost, DPF condition etc and we repeat this process after the remap.

While carrying out any remap we will be using fully licensed tools including genuine Alientech Kess V3, V2 Master and Alientech K-Tag Master tools. A high-quality battery support unit is also used during OBD programming.

We welcome any questions and you are also welcome to call in for a chat with Lindsey or Darren at the workshop.

Vauxhall Vivaro DPF Assessment.

This poorly Vivaro came to us to investigate a suspected blocked DPF and find the cause of the problem. The DPF was indeed blocked as regeneration had not been taking place due to a Mass Air Flow fault being stored permanently.

The MAF fault was actually being caused by a poor connection at the plug so no parts were necessary to fix this. Connection repaired, DPF cleaned using the awesome DC Lubricants Ltd DPF Soak & Rinse then an extended road test to make sure that everything was behaving as expected.

The customer was now able to go on his long journey to Scotland without worrying about warning lights 😄

Vauxhall Vivaro DPF

Renault Megane diagnostic assessment to investigate recurring low pressure EGR faults.

This poorly Megane came to us after repeated issues where cleaning the low pressure EGR gauze filter would only provide a temporary solution before blocking again....

Our PN tester confirmed that the DPF is cracked internally and this is allowing excessive soot to enter the LP EGR system.
