Signs You Need Engine Diagnostics & Repair

  • Check Engine Light On – A flashing or steady check engine light can indicate anything from a minor sensor issue to a serious engine problem.

  • Strange Noises (Knocking, Ticking, or Squealing) – Unusual engine sounds can be signs of worn components, low oil pressure, or internal damage.

  • Loss of Power or Poor Acceleration – If your vehicle feels sluggish or struggles to accelerate, it could be due to fuel system issues, ignition problems, or engine wear.

  • Excessive Exhaust Smoke – White, blue, or black smoke can indicate coolant leaks, burning oil, or a fuel system issue.

  • Rough Idling or Stalling – If your car shakes at idle or stalls unexpectedly, there may be an issue with the fuel, air intake, or ignition system.

Ignoring these warning signs can lead to costly repairs or even complete engine failure. Addressing issues early helps prevent more extensive damage and saves you money in the long run.
