Here are some common questions we get asked about vehicle diagnostics.

  • What is vehicle diagnostics and how does it work?

    Vehicle diagnostics is the process of identifying faults in your car using specialist equipment that communicates with your vehicle’s onboard computer. At Auto Tech Direct in Shrewsbury, we use professional diagnostic tools to quickly detect issues with sensors, engine systems, electronics, and more.

  • What are common signs that my vehicle needs a diagnostic check?

    Common signs include dashboard warning lights, poor performance, increased fuel consumption, starting issues, or strange engine noises. If something doesn’t feel right, our diagnostic service can help identify the cause before it becomes a bigger problem.

  • Can you diagnose problems with sensors and warning lights?

    Yes, we specialise in diagnosing faults with components like engine sensors, ABS sensors, airbag systems, and other electronics. If your dashboard is showing warning lights, we’ll accurately pinpoint the issue and advise on the right solution.

  • How long does a diagnostic test take?

    Most vehicle diagnostic checks take between 30 and 60 minutes, depending on the complexity of the fault. After the scan, we’ll explain the fault codes and provide expert advice on the repairs needed to resolve the issue.

    In many cases, yes. A proper diagnostic test ensures that we target the actual problem instead of relying on guesswork. It’s especially important for modern vehicles with complex electronic systems, where symptoms can be misleading.
