At AutoStar Mechanics, our Check Engine Light Services deliver fast, accurate diagnostics and expert repairs to address warning indicators before they become major problems. Our certified technicians use OEM‑grade scan tools and live‑data analysis to interpret fault codes, perform targeted performance tests, and recommend the precise solutions your vehicle needs—whether you’re stranded roadside or visiting our Burnaby shop. Trust us to restore your engine’s health and clear that warning light with speed and transparency.
Successful repairs begin with precise diagnostics. At AutoStar Mechanics, we combine advanced scanning technology with hands‑on performance checks to ensure no issue goes undetected.
Once the initial codes are analyzed, we deepen our assessment with follow‑up tests tailored to the fault type. This two‑phase approach, electronic scanning followed by physical performance evaluation, ensures we identify intermittent faults and avoid unnecessary part replacements.
A lit check engine light can stem from simple issues or complex system failures. Understanding the root causes helps prioritize repairs and avoid repeat visits.
Even minor faults can trigger a warning. At AutoStar Mechanics, we rule out false positives through comprehensive testing, ensuring we address the true malfunction rather than chasing phantom errors.
Once diagnostics pinpoint the fault, our technicians implement targeted repairs using high‑quality parts and manufacturer‑approved procedures. From simple sensor swaps to complex emission‑system overhauls, we restore your engine’s performance and clear the warning light for good.
Our repair workflow includes post‑service validation tests to confirm successful resolution. This ensures the check engine light remains off and that your vehicle meets emission and performance standards.

Frequent triggers include a loose or faulty gas cap, oxygen sensor failures, spark‑plug or coil issues, catalytic converter malfunctions, and mass airflow sensor problems.
We always diagnose and repair the underlying issue before clearing codes. Simply erasing the light without addressing the fault can lead to repeated failures and potential engine damage.
Our transparent pricing covers a flat diagnostic fee for code reading and testing, plus parts and labor for recommended repairs. You’ll receive an itemized estimate before any work begins.
Occasional or momentary CEL warnings may be safe for short trips, but persistent or flashing lights indicate serious issues. We recommend scheduling service promptly to avoid further damage.
