Frequently Asked Questions
What is a car diagnostic test?
A car diagnostic test is a scan of your vehicle’s internal systems using specialised tools that connect to the car’s computer (ECU). It checks for stored fault codes related to the engine, transmission, brakes, exhaust system, sensors, and other key components. These codes help identify specific issues so mechanics can diagnose and fix them efficiently.
How do I know if my car needs a diagnostic test?
If you notice a warning light (like the check engine light), strange noises, poor fuel efficiency, sluggish acceleration, or intermittent issues, it’s a good idea to book a car diagnostic test. It’s especially useful when there’s no visible problem but your car doesn’t feel quite right.
How long does a car diagnostic take?
Most basic car diagnostic tests take around 30 to 60 minutes. If the issue is more complex or requires additional testing (e.g., electrical faults or sensor failures), it could take longer. Your mechanic will usually provide an update once the fault code is retrieved and interpreted.
