What do car inspection services include?
Car inspection services range from general check-ups of a vehicle’s status and performance to more specific assessments of its history and licensing. This is usually done regularly, either for maintenance inspections or assessing the car’s condition before putting it in the market or transferring its ownership. Here are some services that you can expect when you book a car inspection through Airtasker:
Pre-Purchase Car Inspection
Prior to buying or selling a used vehicle, one of the most important tasks to accomplish is a pre-purchase car inspection. Aside from giving you a basic rundown of what needs repairing, it can also supply you with the information necessary to attach a reasonable price tag for the vehicle being checked. Car warranty inspections are often a part of this process and can also be valuable input for a buyer to take note of before they make their final decision.
Â
Pink Slip Inspection
Vehicles more than five years old are the usual target for #pink slip inspections or E-Safety checks. When registering your car, your renewal papers might indicate the need for this. Upon doing so, an inspector can verify that your vehicle is road-worthy—allowing you to register your car for the year accordingly.
Blue Slip Inspection
Blue slip inspections check the roadworthiness of unregistered vehicles that fall under the following scenarios:
Â
- Autos that haven’t been inspected for the past three months
- Vehicles with no number plates
- Automobiles that have undergone significant adjustments in registration records
- Cars that have been imported from overseas
Â
This process ensures that your car will be ready to get back on the road once the registration has pulled through.
Â
Car Interior and Exterior Inspection
Any dent, scratch, or damage can make or break a car's overall appearance, which is why it's imperative to get a thorough interior and exterior inspection. Hire an expert to check every nook and cranny of a vehicle—from its exterior paint, headlights, and tyres to the dashboard and upholstery. Should any issue arise during the procedure, you can also book a professional #car detailing specialist to give an automobile that showroom quality it deserves.
Engine Inspection
An engine inspection or a car diagnostics test can spot all sorts of car problems even before they occur, sparing you and your vehicle from further damage and more costly repairs in the future. An expert mechanic will check all the essential car parts like the brakes, alternator, cooling systems, gaskets, battery, and suspension, among others. Electrical wirings will also be inspected to ensure that every connection is in its proper order.

I require assistance finding a good used car and performing a comprehensive pre-purchase inspection. I don't drive much (~5,000 km per year) and am looking for a car known for its reliability, as my previous purchase was a lemon from the beginning. My preferred options are sedans such as the Toyota Camry, Toyota Corolla, or Honda Civic. I am open to suggestions regarding the car's make, model, year, mileage, and hearing options for the best car based on my usage. Budget for the used car: $10k - $15k Services Required: - Sourcing a Used Car - preferably from a private party, as I feel dealerships often lack knowledge of the car's history and are overpriced compared to private sellers. Also, dealerships are professional second-hand car salespeople, literally. - Pre-Purchase Checks and Inspections - Please provide a comprehensive list of checks you do, including initial contact with the seller to ask essential questions, followed by a thorough on-site inspection of the car. Please provide if the fees for the different reports to order are included (PPSR, Car History, VicRoads reports, etc.). - Assistance in negotiating the price with the seller
Rajender went above and beyond. Highly recommend him for his expertise
