When the check engine light switches on, that means you need to take your vehicle to a service center that can perform a reliable diagnostic service for the check engine light. At Carolina Volkswagen, we offer a Volkswagen-approved service center with certified technicians and state-of-the-art tools. Our Charlotte facility is only a short drive from Matthews, Wildwoods, Mint Hill, and Myers Park, NC. Not only can we diagnose check engine lights, but our expert technicians at Carolina Volkswagen also have the experience and skills to fix the issue. As you can expect from a VW service center, we specialize in parts and accessories, and service for all VW models, including the Jetta, Tiguan, Passat, Golf, and more.
As a vital component of the vehicle’s onboard diagnostic system, the check engine light is designed to switch on if it gets an error signal from one of the vehicle systems. It could be a faulty sensor, loose gas cap, malfunctioning catalytic converter, or other types of issues that can trigger the check engine light. A diagnostic service is required to determine the specific issues with the vehicle. Generally, the check engine light is located on the dashboard and is shaped like a car engine. Another name for the check engine light is malfunction indicator lamp (MIL). Although a blinking or flashing check engine light indicates a more urgent issue with your vehicle, we recommend you not delay getting diagnostic service regardless of blinking or steady light.
At Carolina Volkswagen, we carry professional-grade tools to complete the check engine light diagnosis. This includes a specialized error scanning device that our technicians will connect to your vehicle. This device will obtain the error code from the vehicle’s computer and pinpoint the exact problem with the vehicle. Once the diagnosis is complete, our technicians will present their recommendations to you on possible options to fix the problem. If any part needs replacement, we can install a VW OEM part for your vehicle.
For service appointments at Carolina Volkswagen, you can call us or use our online scheduling tool. An appointment allows us to deliver an optimized experience to you, including minimized wait time. While your VW is with our technicians, you can enjoy several amenities provided at Carolina Volkswagen, such as a quiet room, computer workstations, newspapers and magazines, TVs, vending machines, and more. All customers at Carolina Volkswagen are offered our complimentary multi-point inspection. We look forward to seeing you at our Charlotte service center.
