Accurate Fault-Finding at Blacksmiths Garage
Is your dashboard showing a warning light? Is your engine running rough, lacking power, or using more fuel than usual? At Blacksmiths Garage in York, North Yorkshire, we offer professional and affordable engine diagnostics to quickly identify and resolve issues affecting your vehicle’s performance.
Using dealer-level diagnostic equipment and years of hands-on experience, our skilled technicians can pinpoint faults in your vehicle’s engine and electronic systems with speed and accuracy. Whether it’s a simple sensor fault or a complex control module issue, we’ll get to the root of the problem and provide a clear solution — without guesswork.
🔍 Advanced Car Diagnostics for All Makes & Models
Modern vehicles are fitted with Engine Control Units (ECUs) and a network of electronic sensors that monitor every aspect of performance, emissions, fuel economy, and safety. When a fault is detected, the ECU stores a code and triggers a dashboard warning light — but the code alone doesn’t always reveal the full story.
At Blacksmiths Garage York, we use up-to-date diagnostic tools compatible with all major car brands, including:
- Ford, Vauxhall, Peugeot, Citroën, BMW, Audi, Volkswagen, Mercedes
- Japanese and Korean manufacturers (Nissan, Honda, Toyota, Hyundai, Kia)
- Light commercial vehicles and vans
- Hybrid and electric vehicles
We don’t just read fault codes — we interpret the data, test the related systems, and provide expert diagnosis that you can trust.
