Looking at a used car in Sandton? We come to it, plug in a diagnostic scanner and send you what it finds.
Seller’s complex, office parking or a dealer’s lot in Sandton, Bryanston, Rivonia or Morningside: we come to where the car is standing.
What the scan reads
Fault codes
Stored and pending codes from the engine, gearbox, ABS and airbag systems, where the car supports it.
Readiness monitors
Whether the car’s self-tests have completed. Incomplete monitors can mean the fault memory was cleared recently, by the seller or by a disconnected battery.
Freeze-frame data
The snapshot the engine computer saves at the moment a fault was logged.
Your report
The scanner’s report, sent by email or WhatsApp after the scan, with every code written out in plain language.
How it works
-
Send us the car
Make, model, year and where it is standing. A WhatsApp message is enough.
-
We plug in at the car
At the seller’s address or yours, in Johannesburg, with the owner’s permission. It usually takes under an hour.
-
You get the report
Straight after the scan, by email or WhatsApp. You pay the R320 launch price once you have it, plus a travel fee of R10 a km beyond 10 km from us. We confirm the total on WhatsApp before you book.
What a scan is not
A scan is not a mechanical inspection. We do not assess the body, paint, rust, tyres, brakes or suspension, we do not road-test the car, and we do not tell you whether to buy it.
A fault code points to a system, not to a confirmed failed part, and a car can have problems that never log a code. If you are serious about a car, have a qualified mechanic look at it as well.
We only read. We never clear codes or change settings on a car.
We do not sell cars, we do not do repairs, and we take no commission from any workshop.
