Pre purchase inspection Engine and Mechanical Basics: Check fluid levels, condition (oil, coolant, brake fluid), engine mounts, belt wear, and any visible oil or coolant leaks. Diagnostic Scan: Connect an OBD-II diagnostic tool to check for any current, pending, or cleared fault codes. Transmission and Drivetrain: Check the 6-speed automatic gearbox for smooth shifting, no slipping, and proper fluid condition. Brakes and Tyres: Inspect brake pad thickness, rotor wear, tyre tread depth across all wheels, and confirm the condition of the two newly fitted Kumho tyres. Suspension and Steering: Inspect shock absorbers, bushings, control arms, and CV joints/boots for wear, leaks, or play. Underbody Check: Inspect the underside for rust, structural damage, or signs of past collision repair. Electronics and Features: Verify operation of the air conditioning, heater, power windows, central locking, Bluetooth, steering wheel controls, and reversing sensors. Short Road Test: Conduct a brief drive to monitor engine response, brake performance, and steering alignment. Make a report of the vehicle for final verdict.

inspection, restart and safety check needed Hi, I have a Subaru Liberty that has been sitting unused for approximately 1 year. It was running perfectly before it was parked, but I would like someone experienced to inspect it before I attempt to drive it again. I need help with: Checking the vehicle condition after sitting for a year Helping to safely start it (if possible) Checking essential fluids (engine oil, coolant, brake fluid, etc.) Checking the battery and any obvious issues Advising what repairs or maintenance may be needed to make it safe and roadworthy again I’m looking for someone with good mechanical knowledge who can give me an honest assessment and advice on what needs to be done. Please feel free to offer your price, including any additional costs if parts or extra work are required.
Brilliant work, I would highly recommend Daniell to anyone that needs a hand with their car !

Buying a second-hand car on CarSales and want a mechanic or revhead to come take a look with me. 2016 Subaru Outback, I'm keen on the car but just want a second opinion as it hasn't been serviced since September last year. Seller seems legit but hasn't got a RWC for it as not necessary in SA. Don't need a really official report, just wanna know if you'd buy it. Especially because I'm hoping to buy it tomorrow and drive it to Melbourne on Sunday.
Highly recommend! Daniel was kind, honest, and went above and beyond for me. Would definitely use him again and recommend to anyone. Thanks Daniel 👍🏼
