Car and van diagnostic tests in Houghton Regis
Houghton Motors reads fault codes on any make or model of car or van, then explains the fault and the price to fix it.
What is a diagnostic test?
Our fault code scanners link up to your car's computer, which detects faults within the cables, fluid levels and anything else going on in the engine bay. The scanner reports fault codes, and our mechanics translate them to identify where repairs are needed.
Which vehicles can you test?
We have the latest diagnostic software, which links with any make or model of vehicle. We carry out van and car diagnostic tests for customers in Houghton Regis, Dunstable and the surrounding areas.
What happens when you find a fault?
- We read the codes. The scanner reports any fault codes stored by the car.
- We contact you. We explain the fault and give you an upfront price.
- You decide. We never do any work without your approval.
- We repair it. The fault is fixed, the warning light goes out and you are back on the road.
Should I ignore a warning light?
No. Bring the vehicle in as soon as a fault shows, because minor repairs cost a lot less than major damage. Finding small faults early avoids bigger repairs and expensive bills later. We make sure you only get repairs that are necessary, and we communicate with you at every step. If the fault needs fixing, see car repairs.
