General Diagnostics
An hour of proper diagnosis is cheaper than a parts-cannon. We work from scan data and datalogs, and you leave with a written report of what was found and what was ruled out — whether or not you have the work done here.
Typically 1 hour
What's included
Scan-tool and datalog diagnosis for check-engine lights, misfires, boost faults, and drivability complaints.
- Full fault-code scan across all modules, not just the engine
- Live datalogging under the conditions that actually reproduce the fault
- Boost leak and smoke testing where the symptoms point that way
- Fuel and ignition system checks
- A written report: what was found, what was eliminated, and what it will cost to fix
When people book this
- A check-engine light nobody has been able to clear for good
- A misfire, boost cut, or drivability complaint that comes and goes
- Another shop has already replaced parts and it's still not right

Questions we get asked
The things people want to know before booking general diagnostics.
What if you don't find anything?
You still pay for the hour, and you still leave with the report of what was ruled out. That report has real value — it's what stops the next shop charging you to check the same things over again.
Do I have to have the repair done here?
No. The report is yours either way.
Often booked together
These come up in the same conversation often enough that it's worth pricing them together.
