Buying a used car without a professional inspection can lead to expensive surprises. CMM Automotive recently completed a Mobile Pre Purchase Vehicle Inspection Wangara on a 2001 Ford Falcon AU2. Our inspection identified several mechanical and cosmetic issues before the buyer committed to the purchase.
Interior Inspection
We began the Mobile Pre Purchase Vehicle Inspection Wangara by inspecting the interior. We found several minor scratches on the roof lining. The front seats also had cigarette burns. Although these faults were cosmetic, they affected the vehicle’s overall presentation.
Engine Inspection
Next, we completed a detailed engine inspection. Our battery test showed the battery was in poor condition and may require replacement soon. We also found the exhaust muffler hanging lower than normal. Several exhaust mounting rubbers had broken, allowing the exhaust system to move excessively. We also identified oil leaks from the power steering system. We recommend repairing these faults before purchasing the vehicle.
Steering, Brakes and Suspension
The mobile vehicle inspection also included a thorough inspection of the steering, brakes and suspension. We found the steering rack leaking and requiring further attention. The front brake disc rotors showed several marks from previous wear. We also found uneven wear on the rear brakes. These faults should be inspected and repaired to maintain safe braking performance.
Chassis and Body Inspection
We continued the Mobile Pre Purchase Vehicle Inspection Wangara by checking the body and chassis. The headlight lenses had faded with age and reduced visibility. We also found minor damage to the front bumper. While these issues were not major, they should be considered before buying the vehicle.
Road Test
We completed a road test as the final stage of the Mobile Pre Purchase Vehicle Inspection Wangara. During the drive, we heard noticeable differential noise from the rear of the vehicle. This fault may require further diagnosis and could lead to expensive repairs if left unresolved.
