Car & Engine Diagnostic Testing in Oakland, California

Does Your Car Need a Check-up?

Every vehicle owner wants to extend their car’s engine life for as long as possible—and to ensure optimal performance along the way. To meet those goals, consistent automotive maintenance is required. Sometimes, that’s as simple as getting the wheels aligned, the fluids checked, and the oil changed. In other cases, though, your engine may have more serious issues that require a more complex repair. Fortunately, your vehicle will let you know when this is the case, specifically through the display of its Check Engine light. In order to have your engine needs diagnosed and corrected, visit our techs at Meineke #2397 in Oakland, CA.

Checking Your Engine Light

Basically, when the engine lights come on, it means there’s a problem with your vehicle. Sometimes, it ends up being a fairly minor issue; in other cases, it proves to be major.

Diagnosing the Problem

The illumination of your Check Engine light could point to a wide range of issues. Sometimes, it’s simple and easy—a crack in your gas cap, for instance. In other cases, though, it might denote a more serious problem with your transmission, with your electrical system, or with another core automotive component. You need to have the problem diagnosed quickly so that the proper maintenance can be performed. This, in turn, will keep the issue from getting worse.
