Why Connecticut customers mail in bench evaluation / custom job

Connecticut has roughly 2.9 million registered vehicles, and European luxury (BMW, Mercedes, Audi) make up much of what Hartford-area shops and owners mail us. Bench Evaluation / Custom Job is a bench job most Hartford shops don't keep equipment for, so owners and trade shops across Connecticut ship it to a specialist. Cross-country northeast — about 3 days each way.

Is there a bench evaluation / custom job shop in Hartford I should use instead?

Does Connecticut vehicle inspection or emissions testing affect this service?
Connecticut requires a biennial OBD-II emissions inspection for most vehicles statewide. Our service is bench module programming only — you remain responsible for your vehicle's compliance with all Connecticut and federal requirements.
When should I use this vs your flat-rate services?
If your need fits one of our 21 flat-rate services (BMW EWS delete, Mercedes EIS, VW IMMO delete, TIPM repair, etc.), pick that — it's cheaper and faster. Use bench evaluation when your scenario is unusual, the module isn't on our service list, or you want a professional diagnosis before committing to a specific repair.
Is the $150 refundable if you can't fix it?
$95 of it is. The remaining $55 covers our bench diagnostic time. If the module IS repairable but you decide not to proceed, no refund — we did the work.
