Inspection Overview
Our agent will examine the seller’s registration documents to ensure that they have the legal right to sell the vehicle, and that the VIN matches the code engraved into the vehicle body and that a valid conformity code is there.
We’ll take a precise paint thickness reading from all areas around the car to reveal any repainted or repaired parts. This is the most effective way to know if there has been any past accidents in the vehicle history. Any scratches, dents, loose or missing parts will be reported and photographed.
We’ll evaluate the seats, windows, dashboard, doors, interior roof, seals, gauges, audio systems, navigators, lights, seatbelts, locks, odors, steering wheel, floor mats, covers, and trunk thoroughly. Any worn out or damaged areas will be photographed and video footage of 20 seconds will be included in the report.
In this section, our inspectors will thoroughly inspect everything under the hood. We’ll go over the engine comprehensively, looking for oil level and quality, fluid leaks, engine noise (start, idle, and throttle push), and any excessive exhaust smoke. We’ll also check the belts, hoses, lines, and fittings, as well as the oil pressure and radiator pressure. This can reveal any radiator damage or leaks. Our professionals will further check vehicle’s wiring system, alternator, and ignition system to ensure that everything under the hood is in working order.
The vehicle’s underbody will be inspected for oil leaks, rust, chassis damage, and whole suspension system faults. In addition, the fuel supply system, exhaust system, and auto/manual transmission system will be inspected to identify faults and future repairs.
An ECU complete scan is required for all vehicles manufactured after the year 2000. With this, we can detect not just the engine problems, but also all of the electrical sensor failures, ABS braking issues, hybrid battery state, and other information on the majority of the vehicle history repairs that were conducted on that “vehicle”. When inspecting a car, a complete vehicle scan is essential.
Personal Property Security Register (PPSR) is a quick and easy way to do a search that helps consumers protect themselves while purchasing cars. This search performs a basic check for financial interests, written-off records, stolen vehicles, odometer check, registration details, and vehicle identification number (VIN)Â validation.
Our agents will carefully examine each tire and wheel to ensure they are accurately portrayed (branding and size) and to determine the remaining tread (measured in millimeters). In addition to any scratches or visible damage on the wheels, the state of the spare wheel also be noted. Every flaw will be photographed.
Our agents will make sure you’ve got two fully functional keys. In addition, all of the vehicle’s functioning features will be extensively examined to verify that it runs smoothly.
During a test drive, our representative will confirm that the brakes, suspension, steering, engine, electric assist systems, and transmission are all in good working order. The engine noise will also be monitored during idle and rapid modes. Finally, we undergo a comprehensive examination to search for any unusual noises coming from the joints or transmission.
As a summary, our agents will note all the missing parts of the car and the damages that have occurred to the vehicle in this section. Images will be included to further clarify the situation.
The technician inspecting the vehicle will advise you on what needs to be done regarding the mechanical and electrical concerns with the vehicle. This provides the customer with a good understanding of the repairs that will be required after purchasing the vehicle. After disclosing all these details, buying decision is always the customer’s choice. Our certified inspectors will provide you with all the information you need to make an informed decision about the inspected vehicle.
We provide you with the current market price of the vehicle we inspect as part of our premium package. This will be “recon” by deducting the current market price from the vehicle’s existing repairs.
Greasemonkey Inspectors provide a thorough car repair estimate, analysing external conditions for current problems and prospective future needs. Our skilled staff conducts a thorough examination and provides you with an estimate. It is critical to identify problems as soon as possible in order to ensure optimal vehicle performance and avoid costly future repairs.Â

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Purchasing an automobile, whether new or used, entails a significant financial investment on your behalf. When buying a new vehicle, there are several sources of information and reviews to help you understand the car’s quality and performance. Alternatively, there aren’t many options for a used one. A used car’s history – whether it suffered major accident damages, any corrective paint jobs, bad repair work, any other significant replacement, or inherent problems – will not be seen through a visual examination due to many users and different purchasers. As a result, purchasing a used automobile may be stressful and feel like a gamble that necessitates extensive knowledge of various car types. Fortunately, pre-purchase vehicle inspection services like ours can assist you in making the best selection possible.
Anyone interested in purchasing a reconditioned or a used vehicle.
