HOW IT WORKS
- 1
Tell us what’s happening
Book a slot or call, and tell us which light is on and what the car is doing.
- 2
We plug in
The diagnostic tool reads the stored and pending fault codes from every system on the car, not just the engine, along with the data the car recorded when the fault happened.
- 3
We test, not guess
A fault code points to a circuit, not a part. We check the wiring, the sensor and the component before anything is replaced.
- 4
Your report and price
A plain-English explanation of what is wrong, what is urgent, and a price for the repair. If we do the repair, the diagnostic is free. Afterwards the codes are cleared and the car is road tested to confirm the fault has gone.
