We work with passenger vehicles of all makes.
Today’s modern cars have at least one computer, while high-performance vehicles can have as many as 100. At M8S Rates Mechanical in Gladstone, we have the latest car diagnostic software and equipment to make sure your vehicle is running smoothly.
A computer diagnostic assessment can accurately pinpoint the problem with how your car is running, which makes finding faults and fixing them a faster and more cost-effective process.
Not every service will require a full computerised diagnostic service, but if you notice things like an engine warning light coming on or your car running rough, then our diagnostic service is recommended.
Today’s modern cars provide mechanics with a wealth of information thanks to its onboard sensors.
Car engines have between 15 to 30 sensors (some expensive vehicles have more) that reveal how the car is performing. Typical sensors include:
And, of course, vehicle speed. That data is sent back to the vehicle’s computer which then governs how the car runs.
If you are at all concerned about the performance of your car or four-wheel drive, then give us a call at M8S Rates Mechanical. We perform diagnostic services as well as mechanical repairs, and servicing of brakes, clutches, steering and suspension.
