'Remember' 5 tips when going to get your car inspected

Carefully prepare necessary documents; understand the vehicle inspection process; self-check and fix the vehicle in advance are some tips to help drivers save time and make vehicle inspection easier.

1. Try to avoid holidays and weekends

Before holidays, New Year or at the beginning of the week, the number of vehicles inspected is often higher than usual.

Some inspection centers have noted that the number of vehicles inspected before holidays or at the beginning of the week is often higher than usual. Therefore, if car owners are proactive about time, they can avoid those times to avoid long waiting times.

2. Prepare necessary documents carefully

Car owners can make an appointment before bringing their car for inspection to make things easier. However, you should make sure you have all the necessary documents such as the vehicle registration book, vehicle registration, identity card, civil insurance certificate or toll receipt.

3. Understand the process of vehicle inspection

The state requires inspection centers to perform 5 inspection stages.

The state requires inspection centers to perform the following five inspection steps: brake inspection, emission and noise inspection, vehicle inspection, overall inspection, chassis and suspension inspection.

In addition, vehicles that need to be inspected will be divided into two categories depending on the displayed kilometers and age: over 7 years/under 6 years and under 60,000 km. In addition, inspectors will rely on whether the vehicle has been in a collision or not to check the electrical system, engine, and important systems of the vehicle... In case there is no serious damage, the vehicle only needs to be checked and maintained to meet the requirements.

4. Self-inspection before registration

Bring your car to a professional garage for maintenance to ensure it is always in perfect condition.

Based on the above steps, car owners can check their cars in advance to avoid unnecessary "torture".

• Clean the license plate and keep the exterior of the vehicle as clean as possible to facilitate identification.

• Clean the inside of the car, such as under the hood (windshield washer fluid, engine coolant, brake fluid, etc.), chassis number or engine number.

• Check your tires carefully, making sure they are not misaligned or worn and have adequate pressure. Also check your headlights for any problems.

During the body inspection, make sure that parts such as the handbrake, wipers, water spray, horn, seat belts, door locks, door latches, etc. are always working smoothly. Most importantly, make sure that all the indicator lights on the dashboard are not on or showing any unusual errors.

5. Before registration, take care of your "beloved car"

You can bring your "beloved car" to a professional maintenance garage in advance to ensure that the car is always in the most perfect condition. When bringing the car for inspection, you may have to wait in line for a long time because the inspector will check to the extent that you need to fix it, not just point out all the errors of the car.
