Acura common issues

Failed fuel pumps are common issues we have found.

We have found failure of suspension bushing is the cause of this

A failed battery tends to be a common cause of this sudden no start. Not to say we’ve also had cases of starters failing but more common battery issues. We have all the technology to properly diagnose your Acura and find the solution to this.

This can be a bad idler pulley or belt tensioner making this noise. This is important since if or when the bearing seize your drive belt will break and leave you stranded forcing towing bills and possibly more repairs needed if the belt hits and breaks something else in its path.

Pre Purchase inspection

We understand the need to be  wise in today’s economy and get the most you can on your investment.. The best solution for your budget is often buying a used vehicle. One of the downsides to buying a used car is not knowing the current condition mechanically of the vehicle. Many dealerships provide services like Carfax and other used-vehicle reports to inform you. Pre-purchase inspections will help you avoid getting into a vehicle with many repairs already needed which were not in your purchase budget. Knowing this before can help in multiple ways, stay away from that vehicle or if inspection is not a deal breaker use it as a negotiation point to lower the price of purchase. Our inspection checks if all the parts and critical driving systems are in good condition? How much life is left on the belts, hoses, and other key engine parts or fluids? At Advanced Auto Diagnostics, we want you to be safe in any vehicle you drive. Let an expertly trained, experienced, ASE-certified technician conduct a pre-purchase inspection of the vehicle you are considering to purchase.

A pre-purchase inspection is highly recommended if you are buying a vehicle without a warranty. You are assuming all the risk after purchase, so an inspection only makes financial sense. There is no industry standard for these inspections, but Advanced Auto Diagnostics will provide you with a comprehensive review of your prospective vehicle.

Spotting the problems before you purchase the vehicle can save you a lot of money. You can use any problems you find to negotiate a better price for the vehicle, and if they’re too costly or make the vehicle unsafe, you can avoid buying it altogether and find something safer for you and your family.
