How much is a mobile diagnostic?
A mobile diagnostic is CA$70. It covers testing and an explanation of the results at your location. Repairs are quoted separately, and I explain why a part needs replacing before I replace it.

Mobile diagnostics
What the diagnostic covers
- Check-engine lightI read the fault codes and trace them to the real cause instead of guessing from the code alone.
- OBD scan & live dataStored and pending codes, freeze-frame data and live sensor readings.
- Electrical diagnosisBattery, charging system, fuses, grounds and common wiring faults.
- No-start / no-crankI check battery, starter, alternator and related circuits to find why the car won’t start.
- Noises & drivabilityMisfires, rough idle, vibration and noises that point to engine, brake or suspension problems.
- Written findingsYou get a clear explanation of what I found and a quote for the repair.
When to book a diagnostic
- Check-engine or other warning light is on

What happens after the diagnostic
If the repair can be done on site, I can often fix it the same visit once you approve the quote. If it needs parts, I tell you the timing and come back. If a job can’t be done safely at your location, I tell you up front.
When a shop is the better option
Some faults need a shop lift, a smoke machine or dealer-only software. If that happens, I explain what I found so you go to the right place with a clear diagnosis.

Explain
You get the findings in plain words and a quote for parts and labour before any work.
Repair

Back on the road
No tow, no waiting room. Your car is fixed where it was parked.
FAQ
Questions about mobile diagnostics
Is the CA$70 diagnostic applied to the repair?
The diagnostic is a separate CA$70 service covering testing and explanation. Ask about your specific repair when you book.
Can you clear my check-engine light?
I can clear codes, but a light that comes back means the problem is still there. I find the cause first.
Do I need to be there?
It helps to be there or reachable by phone so I can explain the findings and get your OK before any repair.
