FAQ
What is a car diagnostic test?
A car diagnostic test uses specialised equipment to connect with your vehicle’s onboard computer. This allows mechanics to read fault codes, check sensor data, and identify problems with systems such as the engine, brakes, and electrics. It’s the fastest and most accurate way to find issues in modern cars.
How do I know if my car needs diagnostics?
If a warning light appears on your dashboard, your car struggles to start, loses power, or consumes more fuel than usual, a diagnostic test is recommended. Even small changes in performance can point to bigger underlying issues. Regular testing ensures problems are caught early.
How often should diagnostics be performed?
While diagnostics are usually carried out when an issue arises, many drivers choose to have them done during regular servicing for added peace of mind. Annual or biannual checks are particularly useful for older cars or vehicles used in demanding conditions.
Can diagnostics prevent breakdowns?
Yes. By identifying faults early, diagnostic testing allows repairs to be carried out before they escalate into major failures. This reduces the risk of roadside breakdowns, saves money on repairs, and keeps your car safe and reliable.
