Diagnostics
A technician starts by reading the stored trouble codes with a scan tool.
A trouble code points to a system, not to the exact part that failed, so the technician then tests and inspects the related components to find the actual cause.
That way the repair targets the real problem instead of a guess based on the code alone. Before any work begins, you get a clear explanation of what is wrong and what the repair involves.
Warning Signs
Book a diagnostic if you notice any of the following:
Check engine light: whether it stays on or flashes.
Other dashboard warning lights: including the ABS, battery, oil pressure and temperature lights.
Rough idle or stalling: the engine shakes at a stop or cuts out while driving.
Hard starting: the engine cranks longer than usual or does not start.
Loss of power: the car feels sluggish when you accelerate or climb a hill.
Poor fuel economy: you are filling up more often for the same driving.
Strange noises or smells: new knocking, whining or hissing sounds, or a burning or fuel smell.
Electrical problems: lights, gauges, windows or other electrical parts that work on and off or stop working.
Call (613) 854-4555 to book a diagnostic.
Check Engine Light
It depends on what the light is doing and how the car is driving.
A steady check engine light
A steady check engine light means the system has found a fault that should be checked soon, so book a diagnostic instead of waiting for the light to go away.
A flashing check engine light
A flashing check engine light can mean a serious problem, such as an engine misfire. Reduce your driving and get the car checked as soon as possible.
Very rough, overheating or losing power
If the car runs very rough, overheats or loses power, stop driving and call us at (613) 854-4555. Every vehicle and fault is different, so when in doubt, have it checked before you drive further.

All Makes and Models
We diagnose all makes and models, including domestic, import and luxury vehicles. Our 5+ certified technicians read the codes, test the systems involved and explain the results in plain language, whatever you drive.
