A pre-purchase inspection reveals a vehicle's true mechanical condition before you commit to buying it. It helps you avoid purchasing a car with hidden problems that could cost thousands in repairs. Our comprehensive inspection starting at $150+ covers all critical systems including the engine, transmission, brakes, suspension, electrical system, and cooling system. We identify existing problems, estimate repair costs, and give you information to negotiate a fair price. Many buyers have saved thousands by discovering major issues before completing their purchase.

Our inspection is thorough and covers: engine condition (leaks, corrosion, operation), all electrical systems (lights, wipers, windows, dashboard), brake condition and responsiveness, suspension and steering, transmission smoothness, air conditioning and heating, body and frame condition, rust and damage, service history verification, and a diagnostic scan for fault codes. We provide a detailed written report with findings and estimated repair costs for any issues. This comprehensive assessment gives you complete confidence in your purchase decision.

Absolutely. We specialize in pre-purchase inspections for both private sales and dealer purchases. Private sales often benefit most from an independent inspection since there's no warranty protection. We perform the same thorough inspection regardless of where you're buying, protecting you from unknown mechanical problems and giving you negotiating power.

A typical inspection takes 1 hour depending on the vehicle's condition and complexity. We take our time to be thorough because this decision is important. We'll call you with significant findings immediately and provide a complete written report within 24 hours.

Yes. Even newer cars can have hidden problems, accident damage, or maintenance issues that aren't obvious. A 3-5 year old vehicle might have been in an accident or lack proper maintenance despite looking clean. Our inspection protects you regardless of age, potentially saving thousands in unexpected repair costs.

Yes. Many buyers schedule an inspection before making an offer—it's a smart strategy. The inspection results give you concrete information to negotiate with. If significant repairs are needed, you can reduce your offer or walk away from the deal. Contact us to schedule at your convenience.

We visually inspect for signs of accident damage, frame bending, misaligned panels, and rust patterns indicating collision repair. We can identify visible signs of accident history. We recommend also obtaining a vehicle history report (like Carfax or AutoCheck) and a professional frame inspection if we suspect serious frame damage. Our inspection works best combined with these resources.

A diagnostic inspection uses specialized computer equipment to read your vehicle's engine module and identify fault codes or problems. This pinpoints the exact issue rather than guessing, saving you time and money. Diagnostics cost $150+ and are essential when your check engine light is on or you're experiencing unexplained symptoms.

Don't ignore your check engine light—it indicates your vehicle's onboard diagnostic system has detected a problem. This could range from a loose gas cap to a serious engine issue. Book a diagnostic inspection with us starting at $150+. Our diagnostic scanner will read the fault codes and identify the exact problem, allowing us to provide an accurate repair quote.

Yes, we specialize in brake pad and rotor replacements at your driveway or workplace. Our mobile brake repair service starts at $150+ for labor, plus parts. We use quality OEM or OEM-equivalent brake components to ensure your safety.

Squeaking or grinding noises when braking, vibrating brake pedals, longer stopping distances, or a soft brake pedal indicate brake pad or rotor replacement needs. Don't ignore these warning signs—brake safety is critical. Book an inspection with us starting at $150+ for brake repair labor.

Inspect brake pads every 30,000 km and rotors every 50,000 km, though intervals vary based on driving habits, road conditions, and vehicle type. Regular maintenance ensures safety. If you're unsure about your brake system's condition, book an inspection with us.

Brake repair starting at $150+ for labor depends on whether you need just pad replacement or rotors as well, your vehicle's brake system type, and job complexity. Some vehicles have more accessible brake components than others. Parts costs vary based on whether you choose standard or premium components. We'll provide a detailed quote after assessing your specific vehicle.

Dimming headlights, a dead or dying battery, warning lights on your dashboard, non-functioning power windows, or difficulty starting suggest a failing alternator. Your alternator charges your battery while the engine runs; without it, your battery drains quickly. We can inspect and replace it on-site starting at $150+ for labor.

If your battery is fully charged but your headlights are still dim, or if your battery keeps dying after recharging, the alternator is likely failing. Quick test: start your car and remove the negative battery cable while running. If the engine dies, your alternator isn't charging. We can perform a proper alternator test during a diagnostic inspection starting at $150+.

Clicking noises when turning the key, intermittent starting difficulties, or no cranking at all may indicate a failing starter. If your engine won't turn over but your lights work, the starter is likely the culprit. Our mechanics can diagnose and replace your starter on-site starting at $150+ for labor, plus parts.

Most starter failures require replacement. Starters are complex electrical motors that are typically not cost-effective to rebuild. We'll confirm the diagnosis with a test, then install a quality replacement. Starting at $150+ for labor, a new starter is usually the most reliable solution.

A worn serpentine belt can cause alternator, power steering, or AC failure, leaving you stranded. If your belt breaks while driving, you lose charging capability and essential engine-driven systems. Timely replacement prevents breakdowns. Our serpentine belt replacement starts at $150+ for labor, plus parts.

Signs of a worn belt include squealing noises from the engine, visible cracks or fraying, loss of power steering, dimming headlights, or AC failure. Most serpentine belts need replacement every 40,000-70,000 km depending on your vehicle. If you hear belt noise, don't delay—a broken belt can leave you stranded. Book a diagnostic inspection starting at $150+ to assess your belt's condition.

Yes, we offer comprehensive battery services starting at $150+ for labor. We can test your battery to determine if it's failing and install a quality replacement if needed. Regular testing helps prevent unexpected breakdowns.

Signs of a failing battery include slow engine cranking, dimming interior lights, clicking sounds when starting, or the battery warning light on your dashboard. We can test your battery's voltage and capacity during a diagnostic inspection to determine if replacement is needed or if the problem lies elsewhere in your electrical system.

Yes, we offer spark plug replacement starting at $150+ for labor. Spark plugs typically need replacement every 30,000-100,000 km depending on your vehicle and spark plug type. Signs you need new spark plugs include rough idling, difficulty starting, reduced fuel efficiency, or engine misfires. We can inspect and replace them at your location.

Standard copper spark plugs typically last 30,000-50,000 km, while premium options like iridium or platinum can last 100,000+ km. Premium plugs cost more upfront but offer better performance and longevity. We'll recommend the best option for your specific vehicle during your appointment and quote.

Common signs include oil spots or puddles under your parked vehicle, a burning oil smell while driving, low oil level between services, or visible oil residue on the engine. Oil leaks can range from minor drips to serious problems. Don't ignore them—low oil levels can damage your engine. Book a diagnostic inspection starting at $150+ to identify the leak source.

A valve cover gasket is a seal between the valve cover and engine block that prevents oil leaks. Replacement starting at $300+ for labor involves removing the valve cover, cleaning the sealing surfaces, and installing a new gasket. This is a common repair that stops oil leaks and prevents engine damage from oil loss. We can perform this repair at your location.

Oil leaks range from minor to serious depending on the source and leak rate. A slow leak might just require occasional oil top-ups, while a fast leak can cause your engine to run dry, leading to catastrophic engine damage within minutes of driving. Even slow leaks can damage engine components over time. We recommend identifying and fixing the source promptly. Book an inspection starting at $150+ so we can assess the severity and provide a repair quote.

Beyond our main services, we handle various minor engine repairs including thermostat replacement, hose replacements, water pump issues, fuel filter changes, air filter replacements, and other engine-related repairs. Pricing starts at $150+ for labor depending on the specific repair.
