? Mobile Vehicle Diagnostics & Fault Finding – Townsville

Accurate, On-the-Spot Solutions for Warning Lights, Noises & Performance Issues

Dashboard light on? Engine misfiring? Strange noise you can’t explain? At JRT Mobile Mechanic, we specialise in mobile diagnostics and fault finding, bringing dealer-level diagnostic tools and experience directly to your driveway in Townsville.

We don’t just plug in a scan tool and read codes — we interpret them, investigate root causes, and provide real solutions. Whether it’s an engine fault, transmission issue, or mysterious electrical gremlin, we’ll get to the bottom of it.


? What We Diagnose:

  • Engine management system faults

  • Warning lights (Check Engine, ABS, SRS, DPF, etc.)

  • Misfires, hesitation, and poor fuel economy

  • Starting issues and battery drain

  • Transmission shifting problems

  • Electrical faults and intermittent issues

  • Airbag and ABS system codes

  • Diesel particulate filter (DPF) issues

  • Sensor failures (O2, MAF, TPS, etc.)

We use professional-grade scan tools and years of hands-on experience to pinpoint faults quickly and accurately — saving you time, stress, and unnecessary repairs.


✅ How Our Diagnostic Process Works:

  1. We come to you — home, office, or breakdown location

  2. Scan and test — using advanced diagnostic tools and live data analysis

  3. Physical inspection — to confirm issues beyond what a scanner can read

  4. Report — clear explanation of what’s wrong and what needs fixing

  5. Options — you decide whether to book repairs or get a second opinion

No guesswork. No upselling. Just honest diagnostics, explained in plain English.


⚠️ When to Call for Diagnostics:

  • Dashboard warning lights have come on

  • Car running rough, misfiring or using excess fuel

  • Strange engine or exhaust noises

  • Intermittent electrical issues

  • Poor acceleration or shifting problems

  • Failed a roadworthy inspection due to engine fault codes

Don't ignore those warning signs — early diagnosis can prevent expensive damage later on.

  • ? We come to you — no need to drive a faulty vehicle

  • ? Save on towing and workshop fees

? FAQ – Vehicle Diagnostics

Q: Do you clear fault codes?
Yes — but we only do so after repairs or once we’ve identified the root cause. Clearing codes without fixing the issue is never a long-term solution.

Q: How long does a diagnostic take?
Most diagnostic visits take 30–60 minutes, depending on the fault’s complexity. If deeper testing is required, we’ll discuss it with you.

Q: Can you diagnose intermittent issues?
Yes — we’re experienced with hard-to-find problems and can perform live data testing and component-by-component checks if needed.

Q: Will I get a report?
Absolutely — we provide a summary of the fault, the diagnostic result, and our recommended action so you can decide how to proceed.
