What’s Covered in a Roadworthy Certificate Inspection
A roadworthy certificate inspection checks whether your vehicle meets the safety standards required by VicRoads. Our team carries out a thorough check of key components, including:
- Brakes, tyres and wheels
- Lights, indicators and electrical systems
- Windscreen, wipers and washers
- Steering, suspension and bushings
- Seatbelts, body condition and safety features
- Cooling system and any visible leaks
If something needs fixing, we’ll explain why, show you the issue, and walk you through the best options. Because we handle brakes, clutches, suspension, cooling systems, auto-electrical repairs and tyres on-site, you can get the repairs done quickly without running around to multiple workshops.
