WHAT WE CHECK
Inspection checklist
Checks depend on safe access, the vehicle and compatible equipment. Anything unavailable is marked in the report.
- 01 Paint & body
- Paint-thickness readings where suitable, panel differences, overspray, gaps, dents, rust and visible repair evidence. These checks can indicate repainting; they cannot certify that all paint is original.
- 02 Engine bay
- Accessible leaks, fluid levels and condition, hoses, belts, battery condition, visible damage and engine operation. A cold start is checked when available.
- 03 Interior & controls
- Seats, trim, belts, warning lights, windows, locks, mirrors, lights, air conditioning, heating and accessible controls. Note unusual wear, odors and visible water damage.
- 04 Electronic diagnosis
- Scan compatible, accessible modules for current, pending and stored fault codes. Record scan results and modules that could not be accessed. Coverage varies by vehicle and equipment.
- 05 Mileage / kilometer checks
- Compare the displayed odometer, available records and mileage in accessible modules where supported. Flag inconsistencies and wear that merit investigation. Rollback cannot always be detected or ruled out.
- 06 Recently cleared codes
- Review emissions readiness, permanent codes and distance or time since codes were cleared, where supported. These may flag a recent reset, but do not prove concealment; erased codes may be unrecoverable.
- 07 Tires, brakes & underside
- Tire tread, wear, age markings and visible brake components. Accessible suspension, steering and underside checks from a safe position. No wheel removal or full lift inspection.
- 08 Road test & report
- Check driving behavior, braking, steering, shifting and unusual noises when permission, insurance and conditions allow. Deliver findings, photos, scan notes and a list of checks not completed.
Scope: A visual and diagnostic check of accessible items, without dismantling. It cannot identify every hidden or intermittent fault, guarantee future reliability or certify vehicle history. This is not a state safety or emissions inspection.
