Diagnostic Health Checks
Have you ever thought of offering your customers a diagnostic health
check when they bring their vehicle to you for service or repair?
Your diagnostics equipment device is a specialist tool for extracting
encrypted vehicle information that requires decoding in order for
it to be understood. For a small fee, you can interrogate a vehicle’s
general state of health before commencing working on it. Even if you
don’t need diagnostics for the work you plan to do, it’s quite a shrewd
move when you consider the benefits.
Doing a health check before you start a job protects your customer
and your workshop. First, it minimises the potential for unnecessary
and unwelcome comebacks – a log of the vehicle’s overall condition
prior to starting work is a great safeguard against customers
returning with a new, unrelated problem but claiming “It must be
something you did”. It can help generate additional work; pointing
out issues before they become problems can lead to additional
work being included while you have a car on the ramp. And, it’s a
straightforward revenue generator; you can add £5 or more to a
customer’s bill for use of this specialist equipment.
Whether or not you undertake any further chargeable work, a couple
of diagnostic health checks every day is enough to cover the cost of
most diagnostic devices within their warranty period. Isn’t this reason
enough to equip each tech with their own diagnostic service tool and
make sure the first thing they do each time is to “run a report”?
