Check Engine Light

When your check engine light pops on, it could mean anything from a loose gas cap to something more serious under the hood. That’s why SpeeDee’s certified technicians use advanced diagnostics to figure it out fast.

Sometimes it’s a loose gas cap or software hiccup. We’ll check for those too, because even small things can hurt fuel efficiency and performance over time.
