Auto Diagnostics & Check Engine Light Service in Gurnee, IL

Modern vehicles are rolling computers with dozens of sensors and control modules. When something goes wrong, your car’s computer stores diagnostic trouble codes – but those codes are just the starting point.

At McClure’s Garage, we don’t just read codes and guess. Our ASE-certified technicians use advanced diagnostic equipment and decades of experience to trace problems to their source.

Frequently asked questions

Can I keep driving with my check engine light on?
A solid check engine light usually indicates a non-emergency issue, but you should have it checked soon. A flashing check engine light means a serious problem - pull over safely and call for service.
How much does a diagnostic cost?
We charge a diagnostic fee to properly evaluate your vehicle. If you proceed with repairs, we typically apply that fee toward the repair cost.
Can't I just get the codes read for free at an auto parts store?
Free code reads only tell you the code, not what's actually wrong. Replacing parts based only on codes often leads to wasted money.
Do you diagnose European vehicles?
Yes. We have the equipment to diagnose BMW, Mercedes, Audi, Volkswagen, Volvo, and other European makes.
