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.

 

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:

 

  • 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

 

This process ensures that your car will be ready to get back on the road once the registration has pulled through.

 

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.

$150

Noble Park VIC 3174, Australia

14th Jul 2026

Pre-Purchase Car Inspection – 2019 Infiniti Q50 (Noble Park, VIC) Looking for an experienced mechanic or automotive inspector to carry out a thorough pre-purchase inspection on a 2019 Infiniti Q50 located in Noble Park, VIC. The vehicle will be supplied with a Roadworthy Certificate (RWC), however I still want an independent inspection for peace of mind. An RWC only confirms the car meets minimum road safety standards and doesn’t guarantee the overall mechanical condition. (Airtasker) What I need checked: * Engine condition (including leaks, noises, smoke) * Transmission performance * Suspension, bushes and shock absorbers * Steering and brakes * Tyres and wheel condition * Undercarriage for damage, rust or leaks * Signs of previous accident repairs or respray * OBD diagnostic scan for fault codes * Test drive (if possible) * Overall opinion on whether the car is worth buying and any repairs that may be needed soon Budget: $150 MAX – I will not be increasing my budget, so please only send an offer if you’re happy to complete the inspection for $150. Ideally looking for someone with experience in pre-purchase inspections who can provide an honest assessment and help me avoid buying a car with hidden issues. Thanks!
