    Engine Diagnostics FAQs

    How much does engine diagnostics cost?
    Our diagnostic fee starts at $99 and includes a full computer scan plus a detailed report of findings. This fee is often waived if you have the repair done with us.
    What does the check engine light mean?
    The check engine light can indicate a wide range of issues, from a loose gas cap to a serious engine problem. We use advanced diagnostic tools to read the exact trouble codes and pinpoint the issue.
    How long does a diagnostic take?
    Most diagnostics are completed within 30-60 minutes. Complex electrical or drivability issues may take longer.

    It depends. A steady light usually means a non-urgent issue, but a flashing check engine light indicates a serious problem. Pull over safely and call us immediately.
