Vehicle Electronic Testing


Grimmer Motors Hamilton offers Advanced Electronic Tests

At Grimmer Motors, we believe that you have the right to know all the details about how your vehicle is running. This way, you can take control of your vehicle and help prevent unwelcome surprises.

Our goal is to build and maintain a long-term mutually beneficial relationship of trust with all our customers, so that you have complete peace of mind motoring.

Our unique, state of the art technology tracks and analyses your vehicle’s health. This includes your engine’s state of tune over time to help prevent excess fuel consumption, breakdowns, emissions and expensive engine and exhaust damage.

Vehicle Report

At Grimmer Motors, we use advanced Rennacs Scan Tools to create reports of your vehicle’s status. These reports give you an overview of your cars general health through several detailed graphs, tables and charts.

Our Electronic Tests can:

– Scan the vehicle’s system for fault codes.

  • The tests will show the self-diagnostic fault code information that we have been able to read from the vehicle. The vehicle manufacturer has designed fault codes to be stored in your vehicle computer memory if components go over a certain tolerance. They are used as a diagnostic guide for us.

– Detect “misfires” which:

  • Could cause excess fuel consumption.
  • Could damage expensive to repair / replace engine and exhaust components.
  • Could reduce engine power.
  • Cause a variety of problems that can cause damage when left unnoticed.

When a car’s faults remain undiagnosed, they can become worse, causing serious damage to the vehicle which could become expensive. Our electronic test tools can quickly detect imminent problems so that you have the choice of them being fixed immediately, ultimately saving you lots of time and money.

Paul Johns

Booked the ol' Fuga in for a service this week. I dropped it off early to take advantage of the free clean and asked if I could have it ready at 3 pm. The service went well and they... pointed out things that would need attention in the future. I like the introduction of the vehicle service and repair log book. Which has all my previous services and fix ups recorded in it. And the Fuga was freshly cleaned and ready at 3pm, like they said. Thanks Team
