What does a pre purchase car inspection include?
Cars are usually sold with a roadworthy certificate, but this only means your car is safe to drive on public roads. A pre-purchase car inspection is the only way to make sure there are no surprises when you drive away. A qualified mechanic will do a visual inspection, mechanical check, and test drive to spot any current or potential problems. They will also be aware of concerns that might be typical for the make or model of the car you’re buying and look specifically for those issues. Your mechanic will usually follow a comprehensive pre-purchase car inspection checklist to help you make an informed decision about buying the car. Some of these checks will include:
Exterior inspection
The outside of a car is a good indication of how well the car has been looked after. Panel damage or evidence of repaired damage could indicate the car has been in a serious accident. A pre-purchase car inspection will show whether repairs have been performed to a satisfactory standard. An exterior check also includes checks for rust and structural integrity as these issues may cause problems down the track.
Interior inspection
Your mechanic will conduct a visual inspection of the car’s interior, starting with seats and door trims. Then they’ll check all features inside the car operate normally, including lights, seats, seat belts, air conditioning, central locking, wipers, and windows. Next, they’ll check the dashboard instruments and gauges.
Mechanical inspection
Hidden mechanical problems are one of the pitfalls of buying a used car. And there’s no way of finding out the full extent of any car problems without pulling the engine apart. But an experienced mechanic can identify issues from just a visual check of the underbody and engine. Serious mechanical problems may also show themselves in other areas of the car. Brakes, suspension, wheels, tyres, gearbox, and steering will be checked, and a test drive will help to identify any additional concerns. Your mechanic will pay attention to electrical and cooling systems, as well as the alternator and battery. They will run a diagnostic scan to identify any other issues.
History check
You can make sure your new purchase isn’t hiding any secrets, and that it’s not at risk of repossession by including a history check as part of your pre-purchase car inspection. A history check (or REVS check) show any finance owing on the vehicle, if the car has been stolen, or whether it’s been in a major accident and written off. These records are kept and attached to your car’s vehicle identification number (VIN).

Diagnostic scan and inspection of door toyota Corolla
$150
Granville NSW 2142, Australia
25th Mar 2025
Looking for a mobile mechanic to help with a couple of tasks. It’s a bit of a lengthy explanation. I have a 2012 Toyota Corolla zre152r sedan that has never had a mechanical fault until the last 3 months. After letting a now former friend borrow my car, they drove it on a totally empty tank and they said it “ shuddered”as it ran out of fuel as they pulled up at the service station to refill. After filling up the fuel, the shuddering never stopped. It’s now rough starting, very rough idling, stalled at the lights despite being an auto.. Strong smell of fuel inside the car, misfiring cylinder, several lights on the dash have lit up/started flashing with what I suspect is something wrong in the fuel system. Partner cleaned out the fuel injectors and fuel rail. Ran injector cleaner through the car. It improved but didn’t fix it. I need someone to run’s diagnostic scanner to identify the actual issue rather than a slow process of elimination guess work. There is now damage to my drivers door at the same time. They have told me they ripped the door open so aggressively they overextended the hinge and have what I suspect is a bow in the door hinge. My drivers door no longer opens or closes properly. I need someone to inspect the door and provide advice on the most cost effective solution to fixing this, whether the hinge can be repaired/replaced or it’s the whole door. Last night my partner was using my car for a short trip and had the car window down. He tried to open the door, he says it jammed and wouldn’t open, he tried to force it open and it shattered my driver door window completely on the side of the road… so I also need someone who can inspect the door and advise the cause of the shattered window and again the most cost effective solution. At this stage I’m just looking for quotes on inspection of the above mentioned, a diagnostic scan and how much it would cost to fix all of this.

Todd was great. He gave me a very straightforward review and did more than just analyze the car, as he gave me advice as too how much certain aspects of work I would need to do would cost, and how much he thought was reasonable to pay.
