Car Tips

Does my car just need a Tune-Up?

If your car has driveability problems (stalling, bad mileage, roughness, etc.), a diagnosis is ALWAYS in order.

Did you know that today's cars can have as many as 3 computers each controlling separate systems? If it's not already obvious, this is NOT a job for discount tire and brake shops! Specialized equipment and training is required, and you would be wise to seek out a shop with ASE Master Technicians!

Computer Diagnostics: Necessary Training And Information Systems

All the latest diagnostic equipment is worthless without a trained and informed diagnostician. Today's diagnosticians must keep abreast with rapidly changing technology if they want to remain in the field.

The average student coming out of an automotive technical college needs two years to get 'up to speed' after joining the workforce. Diagnosticians must have access to over a million pages of technical information to fix computer-related problems.

Transmissions, ABS brakes, HVAC (Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning), Traction Control, Fuel Delivery Systems, and Performance Systems are all computer-controlled.

Car manufacturers and vendors are continuously coming out with TSB's (Technical Service Bulletins), alerting the diagnostician of repair strategies and fixes for computer glitches. Information systems like Mitchell-On-Demand, AllData, and CAS are necessary for accurate diagnosing and repair.
