Auto Diagnostic FAQs
How do vehicle diagnostic systems work?
OBD stands for On-Board Diagnostics and is a sophisticated computer that collects vital information from a network of sensors, monitoring engine performance, emissions, and other key functions. It not only regulates various car systems but also acts as a diagnostic tool, alerting you to potential problems before they become major issues.
How long does a car diagnostic last?
While a basic diagnostic test typically wraps up in 1-1.5 hours, complex issues demanding further examination and component access/testing can extend the process to 2-3 hours. The length ultimately depends on the severity of the problem and the potential presence of multiple underlying culprits.
What is included in a car diagnostic test?
Diagnostic tests are like X-rays for your vehicle, utilizing specialized equipment to scan its complex systems and components like the engine, transmission, and throttle. From minor oil tank issues to intricate electrical glitches, these tests diagnose a wide range of potential problems. However, interpreting the data they generate requires trained professionals, making dealer shops and skilled mechanics your best bet for accurate diagnoses.

What Our Customers Are Saying
Called to see if they could squeeze me in the next day for an inspection. You could tell from the reaction that they were busy but the gentleman was courteous and said I could drop my car off in the morning and they'd call when it was done. Dropped it off and an hour later they called to say it was finished. I couldn't pick it up as fast as they had worked on it. I will be coming back here.
