One option is to buy an OB2 tester/analyser to check out the stored fault codes in the ECM (electronic control module) I recently bought a Foxwell Automaster Pro and it picks up the OBD2 codes a treat and it can erase codes as well. One good thing I recently learned is to replace the Fuel filter every 2 to 3 years, an easy job.
Garages charge quite a lot - just to look at a vehicle, an OBD2 reader pays for itself in a relatively short time, the OBD2 socket is located behind the Card holder/ fuse panel under the drivers cup holder.
