Punctual, thorough and helpful. Flagged a few issues that I wouldn't have noticed and gave a good honest appraisal of the vehicle. One of the issues that Kenny identified helped me to negotiate the price down a bit. Recommended

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).

Need mechanic in half hour Sefton to do van inspection
$200
Sefton NSW, Australia
12th Jul 2025
As the description states, my mechanic pulled out and the van will be here in about 20-25 minutes need a inspection - 🔧 1️⃣ Immediate / Priority Maintenance Checks ✅ Timing Belt (if fitted) or Timing Chain: • IMPORTANT: Your iLoad CRDi uses a timing chain (not a belt), but chains can still stretch or wear. • Listen for rattling or slapping sounds, especially on cold starts. • If you have any doubt, get it inspected—timing chain failure is catastrophic. ✅ Transmission: • If it’s automatic, confirm: • Fluid has been changed every ~60,000–80,000 km. • No delayed shifts, slipping, or clunks. • Consider a transmission fluid flush/filter change. ✅ Injectors & Fuel System: • Common Rail Diesels at this mileage often have: • Injector wear → rough idle, smoke. • Carbon buildup. • Get injectors tested, and possibly ultrasonic cleaned. • Replace diesel fuel filter if not recently done. ✅ Turbocharger: • Check for: • Excessive whistle or siren noise. • Oil leaks around turbo. • Loss of power. • Inspect boost hoses for cracks or splits. ✅ DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter): • If it has a DPF, ensure it’s not clogged. • Look for: • Check engine light. • Reduced power. • Excessive smoke. • You may need forced regeneration or cleaning. ✅ Cooling System: • Radiator and hoses—look for leaks, swelling, or soft spots. • Water pump condition. • Replace coolant if overdue. ✅ Brakes: • Discs and pads—240,000 km likely means they’ve been changed, but inspect for uneven wear. • Check brake fluid (should be replaced every 2 years).
