Vehicle Condition Report

Service Overview

Buying a used car without an independent mechanical inspection carries huge financial risks. Cosmetically detailed cars can easily conceal oil leaks, transmission slippage, worn suspension bushes, or past accident damage. Our comprehensive 100+ point Vehicle Condition Report gives you transparent, unbiased truth backed by digital OBD diagnostics, hoist inspections, and detailed written appraisals from our master technicians in Pakenham, Clyde North, and Cranbourne West.

Assessment of engine oil condition, cooling system pressure, drive belts, fluid leaks, automatic transmission shift quality, and differential play.

Full hoist elevation to inspect chassis rails, floor pan rust, pinch welds, CV boot splits, exhaust hanger integrity, and signs of structural smash repairs.

03.Computer OBD Diagnostics & Telemetry

Full electronic scan of engine, transmission, ABS, and SRS airbag modules to reveal cleared fault codes, sensor glitches, and hidden electronic issues.

04.Dynamic Road Test & Alignment Evaluation
