Car & Engine Diagnostic Testing in Lawrenceville, Georgia

Is it Time for Engine Diagnostics?

How do you know when your car is in trouble? When your vehicle engine is in need of some TLC? Often, you don’t—so thankfully, your car will actually tell you. That’s what the Check Engine light is all about. When you see that light illuminated, it’s because your vehicle needs something—something above and beyond the typical oil change/tire rotation maintenance. And the only way to tell exactly what it needs is to have some diagnostic tests run. That’s something our experts can help you with, right here at Meineke #2901 in Lawrenceville, GA.

Is Your Check Engine Light Illuminated?

What causes the Check Engine light to come on, exactly? It could be any number of serious issues with your engine, and it’s typically something that needs to be addressed sooner rather than later. The Check Engine light will also trigger a diagnostic code, which spells out the problem in greater detail. Our technicians at Meineke #2901 in Lawrenceville, GA can run the tests needed to decipher that code. We can then tell you exactly what’s wrong with your engine. And, we can advise you on the steps you need to take to have the problem addressed. Usually, we can do all the repairs right here in our service center.

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. It will help you optimize your engine performance, and enhance the lifespan of your vehicle. Those are all things we care about here at Meineke #2901 in Lawrenceville, GA.

Testing Your Engine
