Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a check engine light diagnostic cost for a 2025 Land Rover Range Rover Sport?

• Typical diagnostic fees range from a basic scan to a full systems evaluation; at our dealership you’ll often pay less than independent shops because our diagnostics identify root causes quickly, reducing repeat visits.
• Common scan-only fees are modest, while in-depth diagnostics that require road testing or advanced tools may cost more — but those fees are an investment in correct repair and long-term savings.
• Immediate savings come from precise diagnosis and OEM parts reducing failures; long-term savings include fewer return repairs and better resale value.
• Remember: any repair covered by warranty must be performed at a certified dealership to retain coverage and ensure authorized parts and labor.

What is the first thing to check when the check engine light comes on?

• Start with the basics: confirm the fuel cap is tight and undamaged — a loose cap is a frequent, simple cause.
• Check oil and coolant levels and look for obvious leaks, smells, or smoke; low fluids or visible issues can trigger codes and cause secondary damage.
• Listen for rough idle or misfire symptoms and note any drivability problems to share with technicians — accurate symptoms speed diagnosis.
• For warranty protection and precise resolution, bring your 2025 Land Rover Range Rover Sport to our certified technicians if quick checks don’t clear the issue.

What does it mean when the check engine light comes on in a 2025 Land Rover Range Rover Sport?

• The light is a fail-safe indicator that your vehicle’s computer has detected an emissions, fuel, ignition, or sensor fault that needs evaluation.
• Common triggers include loose fuel cap, oxygen sensor faults, catalytic converter issues, misfires, or EVAP system leaks; severity ranges from benign to urgent.
• Ignoring the light can lead to more costly damage — for example, an untreated misfire can overheat and damage the catalytic converter.
• Bring the vehicle to Park Place Land Rover for a rapid, precise diagnosis; our factory-trained technicians use OEM-level tools for accurate repairs.
