Frequently asked questions

When do I pay for my diagnostic check?

With the exception of some mobile mechanics who may require payment details upfront, you’ll usually pay your chosen garage directly and only after the work is complete.

What happens if my BMW needs extra repairs after the diagnostic?

To find a great deal on your repair work, filter your search results to get an idea of who offers the best price. You can compare labour rates if you don’t know which repairs your car is likely to need.

Can I trust my chosen garage?

For further peace of mind, why not book with a service centre which has earned a Tier badge? This means it’s one of the best sites available on our platform. Any garages that don’t meet our high standards are removed.

Can I get a diagnostic check at home if I don’t feel safe driving my car?

We work with a growing network of mobile mechanics to provide BMW servicing on your driveway. Just select ‘Only Mobile Mechanics’ on the left-hand sidebar. This will ensure you’re only comparing instant prices from mobile service providers near you. Mobile mechanics have the necessary tools and equipment to connect to the vehicle’s onboard diagnostic (OBD) system and retrieve error codes. They can interpret the codes, identify the underlying issues, and provide a diagnosis. Mobile mechanics can also perform additional tests, such as checking sensor readings, inspecting wiring connections, and conducting visual inspections to further diagnose the problem. As the technician only needs to use a handheld diagnostic tool, there is no need to take your car into a static garage during a mobile car diagnostic. However, the mobile mechanic may need to take it to a local garage for repairs, depending on the problem your vehicle has. They will communicate this with you if necessary.

If I need my car moving again quickly, can I book an appointment for tomorrow?

Many of the garages on our site offer same- and next-day appointments.

Do garages on your platform offer any guarantees about the quality of their work?

Selected garages listed on our site offer 12-month parts and labour warranty. You can also see industry accreditations displayed on each listing.

What do the Tier badges mean?

Certain garages on our site have earned a Tier badge. This means the site has been recognised by us for the high standard of quality and excellent customer service it provides.

Do I need to contact my chosen garage to confirm the appointment?

When you make a booking, we will send you a confirmation email, but the booking will only be officially confirmed as soon as the garage has contacted you to confirm all booking requirements. You should contact the garage directly if you need to cancel or change the date of the booking.

When should I book a diagnostic check?

You should book a diagnostic check if you’ve noticed an illuminated check engine light, squealing brakes, reduced performance or strange smells, amongst other warning signs.

Will a diagnostic check reset my BMW’s warning light?

A diagnostic check can reset your BMW’s warning light, provided the underlying issue causing the light to come on has been resolved.

What happens if no faults are found?

Even if no faults are found, there could still be an issue. It may be that further visual inspections or related checks are required to get to the bottom of the problem.
