What are the advantages of calling a mobile truck service?

You don’t waste cash on towing

A tow in Germany will hit you for €300-€1,000, not counting the time you lose. We fix most issues right where the truck stopped. You only pay for the service call and the mechanic’s labor.

Quick parts delivery when you need it

You don’t need to look for a parts store in a foreign country. We keep the most common truck parts in stock (belts, airbags, filters, fittings). If something rare is needed, we find it and deliver it express.

Support during police and BAG inspections

If the road police (Polizei) or transport inspectors stop by, our mechanic will help communicate in German and confirm that the repair is already underway.

Transparent pricing for truck services — no hidden charges, no last-minute add-ons.

You get the call-out rate right over the phone. We lock in the labor cost before we start. Cards, cash, or bank transfer – whatever works for you.

Service anywhere in Europe

We cover Germany, Poland, the Czech Republic, Austria – and pretty much the rest of the EU.

Our Services

Truck breakdowns are common-especially during long-distance routes. Even on Germany's well-maintained highways, drivers often need roadside support: a blown tire, an electronic fault, or a transport inspection detecting a violation and issuing a stop order.

Computer diagnostics for trucks (LKW)

Dealer-level scanners for MAN, DAF, Volvo, Scania, Mercedes, Iveco, and Renault. We read and clear fault codes and perform component adaptations.

Mobile truck electrician

We track down wiring breaks, fix control modules, and replace starters and alternators. We restore lighting on both the trailer and the truck. We also install new 24V batteries.

Suspension and pneumatic system repair

Replacement of air springs, brake chambers, and leveling valves. Repair of air lines (Voss, Raufoss fittings). Replacement of hub bearings and complete hub assemblies.

Brake system repair

We free up and fix stuck calipers – Knorr-Bremse, Meritor, Wabco, Haldex. We swap brake chambers, rotors, and pads right where your truck is parked.

Emergency trailer repair

Maintenance of SAF, BPW, Schmitz, and Krone axles. Repair of sliding roofs, doors, landing legs, and lifting mechanisms.

Engine and fuel system repair

On-road diagnostics and repair of diesel truck engines. We fix issues with the fuel system, injectors, and high-pressure pumps. We work with MAN, DAF, Volvo, Scania, Mercedes, Renault, and Iveco.

Mobile tire service for trucks

We replace and repair truck and trailer tires right on the spot. We handle inflation, balancing, and mounting spare tires.

Engine and auxiliary components repair

Replacement of drive belts and tensioners. Fixing coolant and oil leaks, replacing hoses. Fuel filter replacement and fuel system bleeding when air is present.

Don’t jump straight to a tow! It might be a quick fix – a mobile tech can have you back on the road way faster.

When a mobile truck tech is the right call

Critical breakdowns on the road

Truck lost power, dropped on the airbags, or won't fire up after a break? We don't waste time guessing - we fix the problem right where you're parked.
We repair:
• Air system (air leaks, valves, airbags).
• Suspension & brakes (stuck calipers, hubs).
• Electrical issues (broken wiring, starters, alternators, ECU faults).

Accident recovery and repairs

Hit a guardrail or another trailer?
Damage often looks worse than it is — most issues can be repaired right on the spot without towing.
Our mobile mechanics will:

• Restore the lighting (headlights, tail lights).
• Secure loose bumpers and body parts.
• Repair damaged lines and pipelines.

Clearing stop orders from BAG or Polizei

Received a Weiterfahrverbot (driving prohibition) during an inspection?
German inspectors will not release a truck with worn tires, faulty AdBlue, a cracked wheel, or a torn curtain.

• We respond immediately and arrive at the inspection site.
• We fix all issues strictly according to the inspector’s protocol.
• We demonstrate the repaired condition to the officers so your documents are returned.

From real-world experience

A Volvo FH 500 with a steel coil load was running through Castrop-Rauxel in the Ruhr valley on a late afternoon run when the battery warning lit up and the voltage gauge dropped into the red band. The driver, Bogdan, immediately recognised the alternator was failing and turned off non-essential electrics. He pulled into a truck stop on the edge of Herne and called LKWHelp24 at 5:45 p.m. With evening traffic building across Bochum and Dortmund, the mobile mechanic still arrived in 47 minutes. The alternator diode rectifier pack had failed, a reasonably common fault on higher-mileage FH units. The battery had enough residual charge for a full diagnostic session. The technician fitted a remanufactured alternator compatible with the Volvo D13 engine. The job was done in the truck stop parking area: cab tilted, old unit out, new alternator in, drive belt re-tensioned, terminals torqued. Output voltage checked at 28.1 volts at idle and 28.4 at load. The technician also checked the battery charge state and confirmed both 12V batteries had recovered adequately. Bogdan drove out of Castrop-Rauxel toward Dortmund and onto the Herten direction without further electrical issues. The delivery was late by two hours but the load was intact.
