Vehicle Diagnostics Explained

Gone are the days when vehicle fault finding meant leaning over an engine and trying to work out exactly what was wrong with it. Today, a quick connection to the onboard computer will tell us exactly what we need to know. This is all thanks to the modern technology which is now built into every new car. 

When we run our initial car diagnostics tests, the report back will include information on the following essential components:

  • Airflow

  • Coolant Levels

  • Engine

  • Exhaust

  • Fuel Injectors

  • Ignition

  • Oil Levels

  • Throttle

  • Transmission

Various fault codes will accurately inform our mechanics, and any relevant repairs or servicing can be arranged at a time to suit you. These are divided into the following categories:

Body (B)

This covers the interior of the vehicle which focuses on passenger comfort, such as the airbags, air conditioning, seatbelts, etc.

Chassis (C)

Codes that flash up with the prefix ‘C’ refer to the mechanical part of the car, i.e. the braking system, steering and suspension.

Powertrain (P)

Here, we’d be concerned about the engine and its various components, the transmission and drivetrain.

Vehicle Network Codes (U)

This refers to the wiring systems, sensors and onboard computer systems.


Complete car diagnostics take up to 90 minutes, depending on the make and model of the car in question. Our auto repair specialists highly recommend having the test performed if you think anything is wrong with your car, regardless of how minor you think it might be. It will also guarantee we haven’t missed any other issue which may occur in the future whilst you’re on the roads around Southampton, Totton, Romsey or any of the surrounding areas.

The diagnostic test is the most reliable way of getting to the heart of the matter and dealing with it.

For a local and trusted garage which offers a personal service, along with a professional approach to all vehicle diagnostics carried out by our trained mechanics, then AutoTech Motors is the company to call.
