Vehicle Diagnostics

Vehicle diagnostics make the process of identifying the source of the issue much quicker, so you can get your car back up and running as soon as possible. It saves you time and money, and ensures your car runs like new.

What’s the process?

Diagnostic services begin with a thorough inspection of the vehicle, using state-of-the-art equipment to run a series of tests and identify any issues. The mechanic can quickly see what’s wrong, whether that’s a problem with the windscreen wipes or a suspension issue, which saves you time and money in getting the problem resolved.

Most modern vehicles have an onboard processor, microchips and sensors which all work in combination with our diagnostic software to spot issues. When there’s a problem with the car, a fault code is recorded in the memory of the vehicle’s computer which can be used by our mechanics to correlate with different issues.

Primarily, it helps you avoid costly repairs in the future, because you can spot issues before they develop and become harder and more expensive to fix.

An annual vehicle diagnostics test can help you uncover issues before it’s too late and could save you considerable money in the long-term.

If you’re checking a used car, a diagnostics test can uncover historic details about the car’s performance previously, so you can make a more informed decision about how to proceed. It can also help you improve your car’s fuel efficiency and performance, keeping it running for longer.
