Preventive Care
Annual checkups from your doctor keeps you in good health, right? Well, the same goes for your car—regular diagnostic tests can detect problems with your vehicle before they require expensive repairs, or worse, leave you stranded in the middle of the road. And while many people think diagnostic tests are only necessary when the check engine light comes on, there are many benefits to taking a proactive approach to car maintenance.
What areas of the car can be tested?
Auto Diagnostics can reveal problems within a car’s engine, transmission, exhaust system, brakes, and other major components, as well as performance issues with other components.
However, a common misconception about auto diagnostic tests is that technicians can use code-reading tools to determine the exact problem that triggered the check engine light. In reality, the code tells technicians which engine or component parameters are out of range, but it does not detail the cause of the problems. That’s where the technician uses experience and expertise to diagnose the underlying problem.
