What to Expect During Your European Vehicle Service Visit
Getting started is simple. Schedule online or by phone and let us know about any symptoms or warning lights you’ve noticed so our team can prepare. When you arrive, our technicians run diagnostics using the same equipment vehicle manufacturers use to identify fault codes, reset service indicators, and pinpoint issues accurately.
After the inspection, you’ll receive a Digital Vehicle Inspection (DVI) report sent directly to your phone, including photos and videos of findings alongside our recommendations, so you can see exactly what we see. A service advisor is available to walk through everything with you, or you can approve work directly through the DVI. Most repairs are completed the same visit or scheduled based on parts and your availability.
1. Schedule Your Appointment
Whether scheduling online or over the phone be sure and let us know what you're experiencing so we can provide fast and accurate service advice.
2. Diagnostics and Inspections
Drop off your vehicle and the shop will get to work with inspections and diagnostics using the same equipment as the manufacturers to determine issues and next steps.
3. Digital Vehicle Inspection Report and Estimate
Following the diagnosis we will text you a digital vehicle inspection report, containing pictures and videos of our findings and recommendations.
4. Review and Approval
A service advisor will reach out to walk you through the findings and recommendations to determine how you would like to proceed, or you can approve work directly in your DVI.
5. Work Performed or Scheduled
Most work can be completed immediately, or scheduled based on parts and customer availability.
The Nice difference.® Warranty
Every repair we perform on your European vehicle is backed by the Nice difference.® Warranty: 3 years/36,000 miles, whichever is longer.
