FAQ — Diagnostics

Common questions.

What does a check engine light actually mean?

A code is a starting point, not a diagnosis. A P0420 (catalyst efficiency) might be a bad cat, but it can also be a failing upstream O2 sensor, an exhaust leak, or a misfire. We read the code, then verify.

How much does a diagnostic cost?

We charge a flat diagnostic fee that's credited toward the repair if you have us do the work. We tell you the fee up front when you drop off.

Can you fix it the same day?

Sometimes — minor sensor or simple fault diagnoses can wrap same-day. Intermittent or electrical-gremlin issues sometimes need overnight to catch the failure in live data.

My light flashes when I drive. Is that worse?

Yes. A flashing check engine light usually means an active misfire that can damage the catalytic converter quickly. Bring it in soon and drive gently on the way.
