Frequently Asked Questions
What does the check engine light mean?
The check engine light indicates your vehicle’s computer has detected a problem. It could be emissions-related, engine performance, or various sensor issues. Diagnostic testing reveals the specific problem.
Is it safe to drive with the check engine light on?
A steady light usually means you can drive to get it diagnosed. A flashing check engine light means stop driving immediately – it indicates a serious misfire that can damage your catalytic converter.
How much does diagnostic testing cost?
Our diagnostic fee is competitive with local shops, and we credit it toward any repairs you choose to have us do. Call for current pricing.
Can you fix whatever the diagnostic finds?
We handle most common repairs on-site. For major engine work, we’ll give you an honest assessment and recommendation.
