What Is a Vehicle Diagnostics Check?
Before technological advances in car manufacture, diagnosing problems with your vehicle relied on the skill of individual mechanics, who used visual and audio cues to identify and diagnose issues. Thankfully, car diagnosis has come on leaps and bounds and now, with the aid of computerised car components, it’s more accurate than ever.
A car and vehicle diagnostics test uses specialised software and electric tools to quickly pinpoint problems in your car’s engine or body. Utilising the built-in processes, microchips and sensors standard in today’s vehicles, our mechanics can assess and determine anything negatively impacting the health of your car.
What Can a Vehicle Diagnostics Test Tell You?
A vehicle diagnostic test can reveal any issues that may be lurking under the bonnet of your car. Our trained technicians conduct vehicle diagnostics testing using several methods, from initial visual checks to more thorough computer-based analysis to detect and diagnose problems.
Our equipment can report on specific performance details — such as your car’s engine, exhaust, ignition, throttle, airflow, coolants, transmission, oil tank, fuel injectors and more. While our diagnostic tools can inspect your car’s computer system for essential information about your car’s history — giving our trained mechanics the entire picture to perform quick, easy and cost-effective repairs. We can identify potential and current issues, and make repairs there and then using only the highest-quality parts.
How Long Does a Vehicle Diagnostics Test Take?
On average, a vehicle diagnostics test will take around 1 hour to 90 minutes to complete. However, occasionally parts or components need to be removed from your car before the service, to prevent issues cropping up during the process that can push the duration time back further.
