Welcome to Foxman Auto, your trusted car mechanic for all your vehicle needs.

What is a Pink Slip Inspection?

A Pink Slip Inspection is a comprehensive check of your vehicle to ensure it is safe for driving and meets the environmental standards set by Service NSW. The inspection is required for all vehicles that are over five years old and need to be registered or re-registered in NSW.

The inspection covers a range of checks and tests, including the vehicle's brakes, steering, suspension, lights, tires, and exhaust. It is designed to identify any potential safety or environmental issues and ensure your car is safe to drive on the road.

What are the steps involved in a Pink Slip Inspection?

At Foxman Auto, we follow a strict process for carrying out Pink Slip Inspections to ensure every aspect of the vehicle is thoroughly checked. Here are the steps involved:

1. Initial Check: Our mechanics will conduct a visual inspection of your vehicle to identify any visible defects or damages that could affect the vehicle's safety or environmental standards.
2. Emission Test: We will perform an emission test to check your vehicle's exhaust system and ensure it meets the required emission standards.
3. Brake Test: Our team will conduct a brake test to assess the condition of your vehicle's brakes and ensure they are in good working order.
4. Steering and Suspension Test: We will also check the steering and suspension of your car to ensure they are functioning correctly and not posing a safety risk.
5. Lighting and Electrical Test: Our mechanics will check all the lights and electrical components of your vehicle, including headlights, indicators, brake lights, and taillights, to ensure they are in good working order.
6. Tyres Test: We will check the condition and tread depth of your car's tyres to ensure they meet the required standards for safety and roadworthiness.
7. Final Inspection: Once all the checks and tests are completed, our mechanics will conduct a final inspection to ensure that the vehicle is safe for driving and meets the environmental standards set.

What happens if your car fails the Pink Slip Inspection?

If your car fails the Pink Slip Inspection, our mechanics will provide you with a detailed report outlining the defects or issues that need to be addressed before the vehicle can be registered. We will also provide you with a quote for the necessary repairs and services to fix the problems.

Once the repairs are completed, we will conduct a re-inspection to ensure the vehicle meets the required standards and can be registered or re-registered in NSW.
