All modules are scanned for fault codes, and the vehicle is road-tested to evaluate drivability and noise.
Report & Consultation

Why This Matters for European & Luxury Vehicles
European and luxury vehicles carry significantly higher repair costs than domestic models. A single overlooked issue, such as a failing air suspension compressor or an aging SMG transmission pump, can result in a repair bill that exceeds several thousand dollars. A pre-purchase inspection is the most cost-effective step you can take before buying.
