Suggested reads about Car Inspection

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.

Highland Park QLD 4211, Australia

17th Mar 2024

Hiya Dean, I'm just wondering how much it would cost to get a full pre-purchase inspection on a 2008 Forester in Highland Park?  I want a RWC if that's something you can do, but I also wanna make sure it gets checked for signs of head gaskets leaking, check the transmission, compression test, signs of heavy towing and any accident damage.   The odo is currently at around 262k.  I'm also wondering about the timing belt as this owner doesn't know, but thinks maybe it was done at 200k, however I'm pretty sure this model should be done at every 125k maximum. So either the owner before him had it done fairly early, or it's overdue. And I think the water pump has to be done every second timing belt change.  So can you please let me know how much it would cost to check on all of this? 

Super impressed with Luke's work. Honest and detailed pre purchase inspection on a 08 Forester. Gave me his personal opinion along with professional info. Thanks so much!

Murray just completed a pre purchase inspection on a car I wasn’t able to view myself and I’m glad he did. He picked up a few minor issues wrong with the car that I wouldn’t have found myself and will potentially save me more than his fee! He was very thorough with the job and really has your best interest in mind. I much appreciated his work and will have no hesitation to recommend him or use him again!
