Scania service — V8 and NextGen expertise

PHS Magnum has been servicing Scania tractor units for well over a decade. The specialisation covers the DC 13 (V6, 12.7L) and DC 16 (V8, 16.0L) engines — the most technically demanding designs in the truck segment. A 14-bay workshop capable of handling the full range of repairs.

Mobile Scania service — 30 min to Opole, 70-90 min to Gliwice, range approx. 200 km from the base in Chorula. The mobile mechanic is equipped with SDP3 diagnostics and typical wear parts (filters, oils, AdBlue, NOx sensors).

Frequently Asked Questions

The full Scania range: R, G, S trucks (cabs — all generations), P (light), NextGen Series (the latest, from 2017). Engines: DC 13 (12.7L, V6), DC 16 (16.0L, V8), DC 9. Gearboxes: Scania Opticruise (automated), GR/GRS (manual). SDP3 diagnostics — the full Scania OEM system.

The mobile Scania mechanic travels from Chorula (4 km from the A4) to: Opole 30 min, Opole-East 25-35 min, Krapkowice 30-45 min, Kędzierzyn-Koźle 45-60 min, Gliwice 70-90 min, Katowice 90-110 min, Wrocław 100-120 min. Range approx. 200 km. The mobile mechanic is equipped with SDP3 diagnostics and typical Scania wear parts.

Yes — the full Scania SDP3 diagnostic system (official OEM). Reading and clearing faults of the DC engine, EBS module, Opticruise automated gearbox, AdBlue/SCR, air conditioning, immobiliser. Programming new modules after replacement, sensor calibration, access to XCOM (Scania Communicator).

Mobile (on the A4 or in the field): SDP3 diagnostics with fault clearing, pneumatics, EBS, minor electrical repairs, brake cylinder replacement, parking brake repair, wheel sensor replacement. In the workshop (Chorula): clutch replacement, Opticruise repair, DC 13/16 engine overhaul, retarder repair, cab bodywork, painting.

The most frequent: AdBlue system problems (NOx sensor, urea doser), DPF regeneration, XCOM electronics module failures, EBS calibration errors after sensor replacement, air-conditioning compressor faults. On older R-Series generations: Opticruise clutch wear, DC 13 timing cracks, Common Rail fuel supply pump problems.

Yes — we repair Scania retarders (the hydrodynamic system in Opticruise and the electromagnetic retarder in older generations). SDP3 diagnostics with operating parameter readout, overhaul of hydraulic valves, retarder coolant replacement, repair of retarder bearings and shaft. Full calibration after repair.

Yes. Scania is a Swedish brand popular in international transport. We regularly service vehicles with SE, DE, AT, NL, BE and DK registrations. Documentation in PL/EN/DE. EU VAT invoice in PLN or EUR. Many DACH fleet companies bring their Scanias to us because of lower labour costs.

The DC 16 (V8, 16.0L, 580-770 hp) is a premium design with more cylinders and higher loads, so an overhaul is more labour-intensive — the full scope includes replacing pistons, connecting rods, bearings and camshafts. The DC 13 (V6, 12.7L) is more common in line-haul transport and is more often repaired in the area of the cylinder head, timing and Common Rail pump. We diagnose both with SDP3.

Typical symptoms are weaker engine braking, overheating coolant, retarder faults in SDP3, or unusual noises from the system. The most common causes are worn hydraulic valves, old coolant, or wear of the bearings and shaft. After the overhaul we perform a full calibration, because an uncalibrated retarder gives uneven braking torque.

In many cases, yes. The mobile mechanic carries SDP3 diagnostics and typical wear parts, so they can read and clear DC engine, EBS or AdBlue faults, and replace a sensor or brake cylinder in the field. Repairs requiring a lift, a press or bodywork facilities (clutch, retarder, cab bodywork) are carried out in the workshop in Chorula.
