On modern cars, there are literally thousands of items that could turn on the check engine light — which is why it's extremely important to find out the problem immediately.

The cars we care for. The people who trust us.
Every diagnostic service, done completely.
When your check engine light comes on, it's a sign that something is wrong with a component affecting your car's emissions system. Whether it's a simple issue like a loose gas cap or something more serious like internal engine problems, it's important to diagnose and fix the problem immediately. Let the experts at AutoScope handle it for you.
What should I do when my check engine light turns on?
Take it to your trusted auto repair shop. Our technicians understand your car, have thousands of hours of experience with them, and have the necessary tools to read your vehicle's computerized system and determine what has caused your check engine light to turn on.
Catching a possible problem before it breaks completely will save you time and hassle. Remember, preventative auto maintenance is much less expensive than advanced auto repairs.

Clients have been placing their trust in us for over 40 years.
I recently took my car to Auto Scope European Car Care, and I can't say enough about how amazing the service was. From the moment I called for a quote, David, who assisted me, was incredible. He provided excellent communication every step of the way, from the initial phone call to the in-person drop-off.
We recently moved from Austin and were looking for a reliable, honest place to take our temperamental BMW and Audi. From the first visit we clearly understood why Autoscope has won multiple awards for integrity. We feel very taken care of here — they are quick, communicative and trustworthy.
