Know Your Vehicle’s True Condition Before You Buy or Repair
A thorough inspection can make the difference between a smart investment and an expensive mistake. At By The Book Diesel & Auto Repair, we offer complete inspection services designed to give you confidence and clarity before purchasing or repairing any vehicle.
Our pre-purchase inspections evaluate all major systems — engine, transmission, suspension, brakes, electrical, cooling, and driveline — so you know exactly what condition the vehicle is in. We identify existing problems, signs of wear, and upcoming maintenance needs, giving you the information you need to negotiate price or walk away with confidence.
Five-Part No-Wrench Inspection
Every oil change or repair service includes a complimentary visual inspection of key components, including:
- Fluid levels and condition
- Brake wear indicators
- Suspension and steering components
- Tire condition and pressure
- Under-hood belts, hoses, and signs of leaks
This quick check helps you stay ahead of maintenance and spot problems early.
