Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a car diagnostic test take?
Most diagnostic tests take between 30 minutes and an hour. The time depends on the complexity of the issue and whether multiple systems need checking. Once the codes are read, mechanics can often give an immediate explanation and recommend next steps, which may include further inspections or repairs.
What does a car diagnostic test check?
A diagnostic test checks your vehicle’s computer systems for error codes and performance data. It can reveal issues with the engine, transmission, brakes, exhaust, fuel injectors, sensors, and more. By reading these codes, mechanics can quickly identify the cause of faults that may not be obvious during a visual inspection.
Why is my check engine light on?
A check engine light can indicate anything from a loose fuel cap to serious issues like a failing catalytic converter or sensor fault. Without a diagnostic test, it’s impossible to know the exact cause. Ignoring the light may allow small problems to worsen, so it’s best to have it tested promptly.
