Why You Should Get a Diagnostics Inspection in Dallas and Houston

Diagnostic inspections are tests that can help car owners and technicians determine their well-being and identify any potential issues with the vehicle. It’s kind of like your annual checkup with your doctor.

So why should I get my car inspected if everything is running smoothly?

Just like your own personal health check, diagnostic testing isn’t reserved for when something isn’t working correctly. Regular check-ups can help uncover minor issues that if left unattended, could escalate into more serious -and more costly- problems. It’s always best to get ahead of the problem.

Diagnostic Inspection Needed in Georgia & Texas

  • Engine Diagnostic Check: Vehicle owners require major diagnostic inspections of their cars’ engines. Issues with the engine can adversely affect your car’s smooth running and performance, and a diagnostic inspection done at the right time can help catch any underlying problems before they worsen. If you suspect anything is wrong with your car’s engine, you can contact us at any of our garages across Georgia and Texas to get it diagnosed.
  • Brake System Inspection: Your car’s braking system helps stop the vehicle and ensure its optimal handling, so it is necessary to inspect it periodically. The system components are also prone to damage due to their work. You should get your brake pads, rotors, calipers, hydraulic lines, and brake fluid levels inspected regularly. You can visit any repair shop in Alpharetta or Duluth to have them checked.
  • Battery & Electrical System Test: The battery plays a critical role in providing the required charge to the other electrical components in your car. The battery often encounters problems when its terminals get corroded or when a parasitic drain draws away all the charge. When returning from work, you should contact us at our garages in Houston and Plano to have your battery and electrical components, such as the alternator, starter, and wiring, tested by our professional mechanics.
  • Transmission System Diagnosis: After the engine, the transmission system is your car’s next most important part. It helps transfer power from the engine to the wheels. The transmission should be diagnosed to detect problems like slipping, hard shifting, or overheating. You should also check the transmission fluid levels, error codes, solenoids, and clutch condition to ensure they are properly maintained. Refer to your owner’s manual for further maintenance information on your transmission system.

Diagnostic Inspection FAQs

How long does a diagnostic inspection take?
A regular diagnostic test can take about an hour give or take, though if a more complicated issue is identified and further diagnosis is required, testing can take 2-3 hours.
Can I drive my car if a warning light is on?
It depends on the light and what’s causing it. If the check engine light is steady, it’s usually safe to drive for a bit, but you should get it checked out ASAP. If the light is flashing, it’s best to stop driving immediately and have your car looked at. A flashing light usually indicates a more serious issue that could cause damage if ignored.
How often should I get a diagnostic inspection?
Even if your car isn’t showing any signs of trouble, it’s a good idea to have a diagnostic inspection once a year as part of routine maintenance. It can catch issues early before they turn into costly repairs.
Do diagnostic inspections work for all parts of the car?
Yes, a diagnostic inspection can help identify issues in the engine, transmission, exhaust, brakes, and more. It can also detect problems with the sensors and electrical systems that control many of your car’s key functions.
Can I do a diagnostic inspection by myself?
There are certain parameters and indicators that you can check at home if you know how to perform them correctly (check oil, tires, and coolant), but a diagnostic inspection can only be done by a professional with the equipment and expertise. European cars are equipped with extensive computer networks that can provide information on the engine, brakes, and other related systems; this can’t be done at home.
