Diagnostics & Repairs FAQ

Common questions

Is it safe to keep driving with the check engine light on?

If it’s flashing, or the car is overheating, pull over safely and call us or your roadside assistance. If it’s steady, book in soon. It may be minor, but it’s best checked before it becomes expensive.

Will you call me before doing repairs?

Yes. We find the cause first, then call you to explain what we found and what it will take to fix, before any repair work starts.

How much do diagnostics cost?

Call us for a quote. Repairs are quoted after we know what’s wrong.
