“Andrei was great. Was able to book the same day, showed up on time and communicated well at all times I.e texting ahead of time to confirm how long he was going to be. Andrei and his partner diagnosed the problem immediately and offered a solution (replacement battery). He also offered to change my front brake pads and discs and looked at an engine light for me, and can me a very quick diagnosis. Something even the manufacturer hasn’t been able to do! He offered to fix the issue that was causing the engine light, and quoted me exact numbers for the price of all 3 jobs (replacement battery, front discs and pads replacement and replacement glow plugs). Due to price, I opted for the battery and the replacement brakes, and Andrei advised to contact the manufacturer regarding the glow plugs as it may be covered under warranty. Andrei replaced the battery within 15 mins and got the car started, and said he would return later that evening with the parts to replace the brakes. Andrei text later that evening to confirm he had been to two stores to find the parts but couldn’t get them. However he had ordered them and would be able to pick them up the next day and fit the same evening. Andrei re booked another slot for the following day (for work he never anticipated following the first booking) and turned up on time with the parts to fit the brakes. This was done quickly and efficiently in the dark! Very great service, with great communication, will definitely be using again. Thanks Andrei.”

Frequently asked questions about Kia car won't start inspections

Read our answers to questions about car won't start inspection costs, symptoms and more.

What happens during a car won't start diagnostic on my Kia?

In most cases, the cause is either the starter motor or the battery that is at fault, both of which can be resolved relatively quickly.

If you notice a rapid clicking, but the engine not turning over (or turning over very slowly), it is likely to be the battery at fault. If you get a single click and the engine not turning over, that is likely to mean it is the starter motor.

If the engine is turning over fine, but not starting, then further diagnostics will be required.

Therefore, the mechanic will need to access vehicles electronic control units (ECU) via the OBD port inside the vehicle. Please be aware that on some vehicles these are in covered areas such as under the ashtray, at the back of a storage hole or even in the glove box, so the mechanic will need to remove anything that is blocking access to it.

  • The mechanic will go through the diagnostic error code and read live data to pinpoint the cause(s) of the issue.
  • Mechanic will physically examine the vehicle’s powertrain for potential faults, such as intake air leaks, boost hose leak etc
  • If the cause of the issue requires additional work and parts, the mechanic will provide you with a quotation and a detailed description of the fault(s)
