Engine Diagnostics
A detailed inspection of your engine systems to catch problems early and ensure your vehicle runs smoothly in every situation.
Master Tech did the brakes on my BMW, they also checked over the full car, and advised with photos what else is recommended. They did a great job and also were able to show me the older brakes. I highly recommend them for any maintenance or repairs!

How to Know Your Engine Needs a Diagnostic
Engines rarely fail overnight, they usually give subtle signals first. Recognizing these signs early can prevent a breakdown and extend your vehicle’s life. With a proper Engine Diagnostics check, you catch problems while they’re still manageable, instead of dealing with surprises on the road.
Signs to schedule a check:
Reduced power or sluggish acceleration
Some reasons for this are a failing fuel pump causing inconsistent fuel delivery, clogged fuel injectors restricting proper combustion, a malfunctioning mass airflow sensor sending incorrect air-intake data to the ECU, ignition coil misfires, turbocharger boost leaks, or faults detected by the engine control module that trigger temporary limp-mode.
Persistent dashboard warning lights
Common reasons for these issues are persistent fault codes stored in the ECU, a failing sensor (like an oxygen sensor or mass airflow sensor) sending intermittent signals, loose or corroded electrical connections, low fluid levels that temporarily trigger alerts, or a problem that was reset but not fully repaired during diagnostics.
Engine noises that sound unusual or rough
Most of these issues are caused by worn valve lifters or timing components creating ticking sounds, loose or damaged heat shields rattling, detonation or “engine knocking” from improper air-fuel mixture or low-octane fuel, failing bearings within the engine, or accessory components like the alternator or water pump beginning to wear out.
Hesitation or stalling during starts
This can be caused by issues such as worn spark plugs or ignition coils leading to misfires, a dirty throttle body restricting airflow, vacuum leaks disrupting the air-fuel mixture, failing fuel injectors delivering inconsistent fuel, or a malfunctioning sensor (like the mass airflow or coolant temperature sensor) sending incorrect data to the engine control unit.

Master Tech in Gresham did a nice job on the mechanical repairs and maintenance items. If there is ever an issue or concern, they will make it right. The service is always courteous and professional.
Once again you have performed flawlessly and within the time frame which was estimated. With the radiator and thermostat replaced we now have heat. Thanks to all who participated, and will continue to use MasterTech for repairs, etc.
5 star. They arranged for me a Lyft ride back and forth. Also did a five star inspection on the vehicle. I’ve been using them for a couple of years now. I would highly recommend!
Had them do a routine service on my transmission and the work was done in a timely matter and Daren and the other employees were polite and helpful.

Fast service and quick to find and repair issue. Staff polite and knowledgeable. Explained options and got my vehicle back to me quickly.
Had a synthetic oil change on my German car and they did a fine job and were friendly. They also did a very detailed inspection with photos at no additional charge. Very professional service.
Always polite, helpful and got my truck back to me as soon as they could!
I had a great experience getting my Honda Fit 30,000 mile service and new tires. Communication was quick and clear, staff were friendly, and I felt the cost was reasonable. Thanks for making this normally stressful process very easy!
Darren and his staff are alway courteous and knowledgeable. I feel like i’m not getting cheated or overpaying for services. Been using them for years now. Highly Recommended!
They have a great system of photo documenting what they find during their inspection, and allowing you to access it online. Makes for simple ‘menu’ style of what should/could be repaired or replaced. They also work very quickly.
