Real OBD2 data · AI mechanic · iOS & Android beta

Turn your check engine light into a real diagnosis. Before you ever call a shop.

No code? Just describe what your car is doing. An AI mechanic that knows your exact year, make, and model — plus real OBD2 scanning when you want the hard data — tells you what's wrong, what it may cost, and what to do next.

The problem

You Googled it.
You're still confused.

A weird noise. A code you don't recognize. A light that won't turn off. You get 47 forum posts from 2009 about a different car, or a $150 diagnostic fee at the dealer just to be told what's wrong. Kavix gives you a straight answer — type a code if you've got one, or just say what the car is doing.

2019 Honda Pilot · Active
Grinding noise when I brake, only when slowing down. No check engine light.
Kavix AI — 2019 Honda Pilot No light doesn't rule much out here — brakes aren't on the OBD2 system, so this one comes from what you're describing, not a code. Grinding on slowdown is almost always the pads: either the wear indicator tab scraping (a heads-up, not an emergency) or they're worn through and it's metal-on-metal. Is it a light metallic scrape, or a heavier grind?
Heavier grind, rear brakes. Never been replaced.
Kavix AI With never-replaced rear pads, that's very likely metal-on-metal — get it looked at soon, this is a real safety issue, not a maybe. Rear pads and rotors on a Pilot run about $150–250 at an independent shop, or $70–130 in parts if you'd rather do it yourself. Want the steps to check pad thickness before you decide?

Honest repair costs
Know what a fair price looks like before walking into a shop. Dealer vs. independent, parts vs. labor.
DIY step-by-step
Know when to fix it yourself. The AI walks you through it — and tells you honestly when to call a pro.
Multi-vehicle garage
Add every car you're responsible for — the daily driver, the beater, the project. Scan history and conversations stay separate per vehicle.
Full scan history
Every scan logged and searchable, with trend charts and side-by-side comparisons. Spot recurring codes before they get expensive.
How it works

Three steps to knowing
exactly what's wrong.

01
Add your vehicle
Select your year, make, and model. Kavix immediately understands your car's known quirks, common failure points, and service history patterns — before you say a word.
02
Describe a symptom or plug in and scan
Simply ask — "my car makes a clicking noise when I turn left" — or connect an OBD2 Bluetooth adapter to pull live fault codes. The AI handles both, no technical background required.
03
Get a real answer
Understand what's wrong, how urgent it is, what it'll cost to fix, and whether you can handle it yourself. No jargon, no upsell, no guessing.

Stop Googling.
Start knowing.
