Importance of engine diagnostics and performance
Every vehicle has an in-build system that detects any irregularities in your vehicle’s engine performance. Your engine is connected to the On-Board Diagnostics System that relays information about the state of your engine through the lights displayed on your dashboard. Usually when the “service engine” or “check engine” lights go on, you have to take your car to a qualified personnel for diagnosis or a tune-up and this is where we come in. Our staff is trained to decode the information gathered by your vehicle’s diagnostics system and they will use this information to identify the issues your engine may be having. In most cases, you might just need an engine tune-up while in other cases, you will need to have your engine repaired. The information gathered will determine the nature of the problem and what needs to be done to address it. They will then proceed to fix them and make recommendations on how to prevent a reoccurrence.
