Pre-Purchase Vehicle Inspection Perth
When it comes to buying a used SUV, a pre-purchase vehicle inspection Perth can save you thousands in unexpected repairs. Our team recently completed a mobile car inspection Perth for a 2005 Mazda Tribute in Joondalup, and the results highlight exactlywhy this step is so important.
Inside the cabin, our pre-purchase inspection Perth found the left-hand side windscreen squirter was blocked, and the console had sagged over time. The air conditioner was running cool but not cold, suggesting the system needs a service to restore full performance. Engine Bay Findings
A car battery test Perth revealed the battery was reading low at only 430 cranking amps, with corroded terminals reducing reliability. Our mechanics also found splits in the drive belt, oil leaks from both the engine and gearbox, and noisy lifters. These issues, if left unchecked, often lead to costly mechanical inspection Perth repairs down the track.
Steering, Brakes and Suspension
This is where a thorough used car inspection Perth really earns its value. Both front tyres showed play caused by worn control arm bushes with visible splits. The front discs showed wear marks, though the previous owner had fitted new brake pads. The left-hand side CV shaft needs replacement, and the rear brakes and drums showed heavy wear.

During the vehicle inspection Joondalup, we noted faded front headlights, a broken right-hand side inner guard, panel damage to the right front, and a broken right-hand fog light. These cosmetic and structural issues affect both safety and resale value.
Road Test Results
On the road test, the Mazda Tribute showed a small amount of tyre noise and a low brake pedal, both flagged as priority concerns for any pre-purchase car inspection Perth. Why Choose CMM Automotive
