Engine Management Diagnostics (from £30)
Information
It is a common misconception that modern cars with complex engine management systems can only be diagnosed and serviced by official dealers. With the use of specialist diagnostic equipment, faults within the engine management system can be effectively traced. All modern vehicles have at least one ECU (Electronic Control Unit) which constantly monitors ignition and fuel systems via sensors. This enables the vehicle to self adjust the ignition, fuel and air mixture to produce optimum engine performance at all times and reduce exhaust emissions.
With most engine diagnostics, we know that not all faults can be rectified by replacing the said sensor. More often than not, we find that faults stored in the ECU can actually be triggered by another sensor failing or even faulty wiring leading to the sensor. We carry out in depth investigation before replacing any sensors, significantly reducing your repair bill.
