Expert Digital Visual Inspections (DVI)

Advanced Digital Visual Inspections in Elgin, IL

At KS Autocare in Elgin, IL, our skilled auto mechanics combine old-school expertise with cutting-edge technology to deliver top-quality auto repair services. Mike and Seth, the heart and soul behind KS Autocare, honed their skills the old-fashioned way—through years of hands-on experience learning from mentors who emphasized the importance of precision and integrity. Today, they’ve brought those values into the 21st century with Digital Visual Inspections (DVI), ensuring that the same knowledge and care they’ve practiced for decades is now conveyed to you with complete transparency. Whether you’re in Elgin, South Elgin, Bartlett, or Hoffman Estates, you can trust that your vehicle is in capable hands.

What Are Digital Visual Inspections?

Digital Visual Inspections (DVI) are the modern evolution of vehicle care, combining the deep expertise that Mike and Seth have built over their careers with the latest technology. DVI allows you to see exactly what our ASE-certified auto mechanics see through real-time images and videos of your vehicle’s components. Instead of just taking our word for it, you can view the condition of your car, truck, or SUV firsthand, helping you make informed decisions about any necessary repairs or maintenance.

Mike and Seth have always believed in sharing their knowledge with their customers—just as their mentors did with them. By adopting DVI technology, they’re able to bridge their traditional, hands-on approach with modern tools, bringing you into the process in a way that’s never been possible before. This commitment to transparency and customer education is just one more way KS Autocare continues to be a trusted name in Elgin and the surrounding communities.

“I chose KS Autocare for their honesty. Clean facility and professional staff. Seth (owner) personally made sure to introduce me to the team. He explained step by step what they are going to do to diagnose the problem, and then show me. Wow, they sure did. The mechanics had clean hands and were so nice to teach me about my car’s issues and how they will fix them.” — William K.
