What are the advantages of calling a mobile truck service?

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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

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.

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

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.

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

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.

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.

Mobile Truck Repair Service in Essen – wherever your truck breaks down

From real-world experience

A MAN TGX pulling a steel coil trailer developed a loud air hiss from the rear brake circuit while idling at a traffic light in Essen’s Frillendorf industrial zone at 19:30 on a Thursday. The service brake felt normal but the constant air loss would drain the tank. The driver moved the truck to the nearest wide verge and called LKWHelp24. Essen is one of the Ruhr’s largest freight hubs in North Rhine-Westphalia. Traffic connects it to Gelsenkirchen, Bottrop, Oberhausen, and Mülheim an der Ruhr constantly. An air leak in this zone attracts attention fast, especially near industrial gates and loading bays. The mechanic arrived in 31 minutes. A spring brake chamber diaphragm had split on the rear nearside. The chamber was replaced from van stock, brake circuit pressure restored to spec, and a full system air-down test carried out before the truck moved. The MAN was cleared and the driver continued toward Gelsenkirchen at 21:10.
