What engine diagnostics do we provide?

Every job below comes with upfront pricing and our satisfaction guarantee.

Check-engine light diagnosis

That orange light can mean a loose gas cap or a dying catalytic converter — the code alone doesn't tell you which. We read the codes, then actually test the components they point to before recommending anything.

$150 flat diagnostic fee — credited toward the repair

Misfire & rough idle diagnosis

Shaking at idle, hesitation under load, or a flashing check-engine light means a cylinder isn't pulling its weight. We isolate the exact cylinder and cause — coil, plug, injector, or compression — before replacing a single part.

from $80 for a pinpoint misfire diagnosis

Full-system computer scan

Modern cars run 30+ control modules, and the engine is only one of them. Our factory-level scan tools read all of them and log live sensor data while you drive, catching faults a parts-store code reader never sees.

  • Every module scanned, not just the engine
  • Live data logged on a road test
  • Printout of every code we find

Pre-purchase used car inspection

Buying used in 2026 is a minefield of cleared codes and fresh detailing. We put the car on a lift, scan every module, and give you a straight verdict before you sign anything.

Buyer tip: a one-hour inspection has talked more than one customer out of a $4,000 mistake — bring the car to us before the deposit, not after.

Emissions failures & smog check repair

Failed your emissions test? We diagnose the actual cause — O2 sensors, EVAP leaks, catalytic converters — fix it, and verify the readiness monitors are set so you pass the retest the first time.
