The systems diagnostic equipment that we use plugs directly into your car’s ECU (Electronic control Unit), enabling us to read any faults that there may be within the device, and correct any problems using our equipment . The ECU’s on your car are the ‘brains’ of a particular system like the engine management, throttle control , injection system, climate control, variable suspension, A.B.S. system, and any other electrical device. As these ECU’s control the workings and functionality of the car, if there is a problem or fault within them then this could have an undesired effect on your car. Problematic ECU’s could cause your car to be under performing, burning too much fuel, or in the case of the A.B.S. ECU functioning incorrectly, cause danger to yourself and any passengers. Our equipment allows us to find and repair any such errors, to ensure that everything within your car is performing to 100% The SD3 equipment allows us to monitor every sensor and each individual management system separately either whilst the car is stationary or on the move, meaning that we can make sure that everything is functioning correctly throughout the rev range and at varying speeds. The SD3 can provide printouts of each system for you to keep in your records so that you can monitor your car’s behavior between services.
