Default Recommended Vehicle Examination Centres

Hey guys.

If you have any vehicle examination centers that you've dealt with and can recommend, please let me know. Trying to suss out where to go to get the car inspected and hopefully get the yellow sticker off.

Cheers guys

You need to be aware that they examine the whole vehicle and not just the item/s listed on the defect notice. I went with a small list and ended up having to swap suspension out, change wheels etc. I was pissed to say the least!

Yep I'm aware of that. That's why I'll try to do as much work as possible first time around so that hopefully I won't have to make many trips back. Where did you go? Where they decent enough to deal with?

What did you have to swap out on your suspension? What did they fail it for?

Dr mark car surgeon, and not sure mate, they are going through final paperwork now, but because we are so close to another vehicle examiner we don't know if we are going to be granted the permission needed to carry out inspections

What area suits you best?

I know of 2 places in Wangara that are fair and reasonable.
