Vehicle Inspection Checklist

Stage 1
Above Carriage Check: An inspector carries out visual checks on

• Vehicle identity (number plate, engine and chassis numbers)
• Lighting equipment (headlamps, stop lamps, front and rear lamps, direction indicators, etc)
• Bodywork
• Vehicle modification/accessories
• Road wheel and tyres
• General items (seat belts, horn, windscreen, safety devices, etc)

Chassis Dynamometer Smoke Test: Checks Exhaust Emission Level (Applicable for Diesel-driven Vehicles only)

• The chassis dynamometer simulates the load and inertia of the vehicle when driven on the road
• Vehicle wheel power is measured
• Smoke sample is collected from the exhaust pipe

Stage 2
Alignment Test: Checks front wheel alignment

• The lateral movement of the front wheels is measured as the vehicle is driven over the side-slip tester.

Brake Test: Determines efficiency of brakes

• The brake tester is used to measure brake performance, efficiency and drag force.
• Test results are automatically registered. Test instructions and results are displayed on the overhead indicator board.

Stage 3
Headlight Test: Determines proper alignment and focus of headlamps

• The headlight aimer is used to measure the luminous intensity and the horizontal and vertical aim of each headlamp at high beam.

Exhaust Emission Test: Checks exhaust emission level of petrol driven vehicles

• A probe is inserted into the exhaust pipe to collect gas sample for measurement.

Sound Level Test

• The engine is revved and noise emission is measured to determine noise level.
• Test results are automatically registered. Test instructions and results are displayed on the overhead indicator board.

Stage 4
Under Carriage Check: Checks the condition of car parts and components.
Vehicle is driven over an inspection pit for visual checks on:

• Chassis
• Exhaust system
• Suspension system
• Steering system
• Brake system
• Leakage

Test instructions and results are displayed on the overhead indicator board.
