Diagnostics

A code is a clue, not an answer.

Plugging in a code reader takes a minute. Finding out why the code set is the actual job.

A check engine light can mean a loose gas cap or a failing part, and the code alone rarely says which. J&L tracks the problem down to the cause before anything gets replaced.

That goes for the problems that never set a light, too: a stall at the same corner, a noise that only shows up cold, a smell after a long drive.

What we chase down

Intermittent, annoying, fixable.

Check engine light

Codes read, then tested down to the part that actually failed.

Stalls & hesitation

It dies at a light, or bogs when you step on it.

Noises that come and go

Squeaks, ticks and clunks that never happen at the shop.

Hard starts

Cranks and cranks, or won’t start at all.

Electrical problems

Lights, gauges and accessories that work when they feel like it.

Running rough

Shakes, misses and poor mileage traced to the cause.
