VEHICLE DIAGNOSTIC SERVICES
If you have a warning light on your dashboard we can investigate this further for you by completing a diagnostic car or van test.
What is a diagnostic test?
A diagnostic test is completed by plugging in our latest diagnostic equipment to your OBD connector (On -Board Diagnostic Connector). We use the top of the range diagnostic equipment by Snap-on and Autel to diagnose all cars and vans.
Using the one of the best and latest Snap-on and Autel diagnostics equipment, we will be sure to get to the bottom of your engine issues – whether there’s a noise that you just can’t figure out or an annoying light on the dashboard, our diagnostics tools and motor mechanic technicians will identify the problem so we are able to offer you a cost-effective repair or point you in the right direction.
We have recently updated our diagnostic equipment which now allows us to carry out vehicle diagnostics on both hybrid and electric cars and vans.
The update machine also allows us to complete the following:
- Update car or van software
- Aftermarket module coding (BMW/Volkswagen/Mercedes)
- Scan and diagnose any car or van fault codes
- Update vehicle programming
- Calibrating angle steering sensors (which we advise on completing at the same time as wheel alignment – £15 per reset and can only be completed on vehicles from 2016 onwards)
The test will provide a DTC (Diagnostic Trouble Code) after completin the scan of your ECU and will enable our technician to provide a detailed breakdown of what is required to fix the problem. The actual test can take 1-1.5 hours to complete.
Please note that a diagnostic test doesn’t fix any potential issues; it’s simply a test to identify and get to the root of the issue.
