Car & Engine Diagnostic Testing in Portland, Maine

Optimize Your Engine with Diagnostic Services

Every vehicle owner wants to optimize their engine performance, and to keep their car running like it’s brand new for as long as possible. The only way to make that happen is through regular maintenance. Get your oil changed, rotate your tires, take your car in for an occasional alignment—and of course, pay attention to your engine diagnostics. When the Check Engine light comes on, that’s your car’s way of telling you that it needs a little bit of extra attention. Bring your car into Meineke #243 in Portland, ME and we’ll walk you through the next steps.

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. Regardless, the only way to know what’s going on with your engine—and how you can repair it—is to have diagnostic tests run by trained experts. That’s where we come in. At Meineke #243 in Portland, ME, we can help you figure out why that Check Engine light came on, and what you need to do to keep your car in tip-top shape.

Why is the Check Engine Light On?

The Check Engine light could denote a wide range of issues. Sometimes, it’s something simple; it may be that your fuel cap is cracked, an easy problem to fix. In other cases, though, the Check Engine light denotes something far more serious—potentially a problem with your transmission, or with the electrical system. You don’t want to leave these problems unaddressed for too long, as they will typically worsen with time. That’s why it’s so important to make an appointment at Meineke #243 in Portland, ME whenever that light comes on.
