What Does A Car Diagnostic Test Identify?


These tests can identify problems with your engine, transmission, oil tank, gas tank, and exhaust system. They also check your brake performance and other key components.


The diagnostic scan examines your car's computer system which controls most functions in modern vehicles. When something isn't working right, the computer stores a code.


We can find issues in these main areas:


  • Engine problems - misfires, timing issues, fuel injection troubles
  • Emission system failures - oxygen sensors, catalytic converter issues
  • Transmission concerns - gear shifting problems, overheating
  • Brake system malfunctions - ABS failures, uneven braking
  • Airbag and safety systems - warning light triggers, sensor issues


Many car problems trigger warning lights on your dashboard. Our diagnostic tests help explain why these lights are on. Our goal is the early detection of any problem with your vehicle's condition before a minor problem becomes a costly repair.

Discover Why Your Check Engine Light
Is On With An Engine Diagnostic


When your check engine light illuminates on your dashboard, it's sending an important message. This warning light indicates that your vehicle's computer system has detected a problem that needs attention.


We know that can be worrying to drivers because the light could signal anything from a loose gas cap to a serious engine issue.


Our engine diagnostic service in Sterling, VA uses advanced computer scanning tools to communicate with your vehicle's onboard computer. We quickly identify the specific trouble codes that triggered your check engine light.


Common reasons your check engine light might be on:


  • Faulty oxygen sensor
  • Loose or damaged gas cap
  • Catalytic converter issues
  • Spark plug or ignition coil problems
  • Mass airflow sensor malfunction


Whatever you do, don't ignore this warning light! Continuing to drive with an active check engine light can lead to decreased fuel efficiency, poor performance, and potentially expensive repairs down the road.


We recommend scheduling a diagnostic test as soon as you notice the light. Our thorough testing process typically takes 60-90 minutes, depending on your vehicle's make and model.


After identifying the issue, we'll provide a clear explanation of what's happening and give you honest recommendations for repairs. We'll never suggest unnecessary work or pressure you into services you don't need.

"Casey’s Automotive did an excellent job servicing my BMW X5 hybrid vehicle. I had them install 4 new tires with alignment, fast and super courteous service with competitive prices. Highly recommend them!"

Orsolya Csiba

"My Tesla model Y had a flat tire. I called 7 different auto and tire shops in Northern Virginia that all said Tesla tires have foam which can’t be patched. I even called my go to mechanic and he said it can’t be done. Casey’s patched it up for only $50+tax and saved me from shelling hundreds on new tires. Casey’s automotive is the place to go to get work done! They were so polite and patient with me as I called them several times to ask questions about flat tires and possibly getting new ones. Ryan and Parker, you guys are awesome!!! Thanks for a great experience! You guys are my go to mechanics now and will be recommending you to everyone!"

Christine Yeo

"Brought my vehicle in for routine maintenance. Had several questions about my vehicle's needs, and through a series of emails was able to get all the information I needed, very clearly detailed. I really appreciated the clarity and quick responses as I prefer to communicate by email rather than over the phone. Once everything was worked out, made an appointment and was in and out of the shop in about 1 hour. The facility and the folks working there were very professional. Glad to have found Casey's and will be sure to return in the future."
