Frequently Asked Questions
What does a diagnostic check involve? expand_more
We plug professional diagnostic equipment into your vehicle's OBD port and scan all electronic systems for stored fault codes. This tells us exactly which component or sensor has flagged a problem, so we can give you an accurate diagnosis rather than guessing.
How long does a diagnostic check take? expand_more
A basic diagnostic scan takes around 30 minutes. A full diagnostic report with multi-system analysis typically takes 1-2 hours depending on the complexity of the fault. You're welcome to wait or we can call you when it's done.
Do you fix the problems too? expand_more
Absolutely. Once we've identified the issue, we'll provide a clear quote for the repair. If you're happy to go ahead, we can often start the work the same day. There's never any pressure and no obligation to have repairs done with us.
