FAQ SECTION

What is a MAN Gold Standard Service?

The Gold Standard is a series of factory-defined maintenance intervals (M1 through M6). Following this schedule is vital for the longevity of MAN engines and is often required to maintain factory warranty coverage.

Why is MAN-cats® software necessary for my engine?

MAN-cats® is the only diagnostic tool that can fully communicate with the engine control unit (ECU). It allows us to see "real-time" data, identify hidden faults, and program new components into the system.

How often should I clean the intercoolers on my MAN V12?

While intervals vary based on usage, MAN generally recommends inspecting and cleaning the cooling system every two years or at specific "M" service intervals to prevent scale buildup and overheating.

Do you service older mechanical MAN engines?

Yes. We have the expertise to service both legacy mechanical MAN engines and the latest high-pressure common rail (i6, V8, V10, V12) models.
