Vehicle Diagnostics in Godstone | Covering Bletchingley and the Surrounding Areas
When your dashboard displays warning lights or an error code, it indicates a relayed fault from the engine management system, and you should book in for vehicle diagnostics at our garage in Godstone at the earliest opportunity. Ignore warning lights and you may end up paying more for repair work. DD Services Ltd embraces the trade’s latest innovation and has diagnostic tooling onsite which connects to your engine control unit (ECU) and allows our technicians to retrieve fault codes prior to recommending repair work.
This service is available to motorists, businesses and trade members in all local Surrey areas including the nearby location of Bletchingley.
The ECU is an onboard computer that continually monitors performance and self-diagnoses subsystem issues. Sensors feed back information to the ECU and a dashboard warning light or error code will appear if the engine has started running at high temperatures, fluid levels have dropped, or parts and components are showing signs of wear or malfunction. Vehicle diagnostics is a process that helps our technicians get to the root of the problem quickly.
A technician will plug an industry-approved code reader into the port of the ECU to retrieve stored fault codes, isolating the issue so that repair work can be suggested without hours of time-consuming mechanical troubleshooting.
To book in for a diagnostics check, please contact us on 01883 744 150.
Diagnostic technology has other uses too, and we can use our state-of-the-art equipment to reset dashboard lights after car servicing work.
The Benefits of Vehicle Diagnostics
Even when you service your car at the recommended intervals and maintain it to keep it running smoothly, there are no guarantees that an issue won’t arise. In an age where the vehicles we drive are more advanced than ever before, the repair technology used by the trade advances too. When you choose our garage in Godstone for engine management services, you have made a decision that will streamline the inspection and repair process.
Vehicle diagnostics offer a wealth of benefits to include:
- A faster and more accurate diagnosis of the problem
- Reduced car repair costs by isolating faults sooner
- A safer driving experience with all related systems working
- An improvement in performance on the completion of repairs
Our advice to motorists in Godstone, Bletchingley and the surrounding Surrey area is to book in for vehicle diagnostics as soon as warning lights or error codes appear. If you continue to run your car, you risk breaking down while on the road and this can lead to further costs such as recovery services.
An engine management inspection from DD Services Ltd is the fastest, most effective and most innovative way to keep repair costs to a minimum.
Another area where vehicle diagnostics have a role to play is in MOT testing.
The annual inspection doesn’t include a diagnostic check but, if your car fails the test on emissions and you choose us to undertake the repair work, we will use our advanced engine management tooling to locate the issue.
