Why Maryland customers mail in bench evaluation / custom job

Maryland has roughly 4.2 million registered vehicles, and trucks, SUVs & imports make up much of what Baltimore-area shops and owners mail us. Bench Evaluation / Custom Job is a bench job most Baltimore shops don't keep equipment for, so owners and trade shops across Maryland ship it to a specialist. Cross-country northeast — about 3 days each way.

Maryland FAQ

Common questions from customers shipping from Maryland.

How long does shipping take from Maryland to your Arlington TX workshop?
USPS Priority Mail from Baltimore, MD reaches our Arlington workshop in about 3 business days. USPS Priority routes northeast through the Mid-Atlantic network; about 3 days. We start work the same day your module arrives and ship back next business day at the return speed you chose at checkout.

Do you accept bench evaluation / custom job modules from Maryland?

Is there a bench evaluation / custom job shop in Baltimore I should use instead?
Most Baltimore shops don't keep the bench equipment for bench evaluation / custom job — they'd forward the module to a specialist anyway, which adds a markup and a middleman. Going direct to us is usually faster and cheaper. Cross-country northeast — about 3 days each way.
Does Maryland vehicle inspection or emissions testing affect this service?
Maryland requires a safety inspection at point of sale or transfer, plus a biennial VEIP emissions test in most counties. Our service is bench module programming only — you remain responsible for your vehicle's compliance with all Maryland and federal requirements.
Can I get a quote BEFORE shipping?
For text-quote-able scenarios yes — text us photos + symptoms at (817) 678-3252 and we'll do our best. But many failures can only be diagnosed properly on the bench. That's what this service is for.
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.
