What does the car inspection look like

Technical inspection of the car

Every year, every car owner must provide a mandatory inspection of the car in the registration certificate. It is synonymous with the approval of the car for road traffic. Without the current inspection, we are not allowed to drive the vehicle on public roads.

To undergo an inspection, you need to drive the vehicle to the vehicle inspection station and drive inside as instructed by the operator. First, the brakes are checked on special rollers, more precisely their braking force and shock absorbers. The possible play in the suspension or steering elements is checked with the help of jerkers. Then the diagnostician will check the condition of the chassis, will mainly pay attention to the level of corrosion and whether there is any leakage from the engine, radiator or other tanks. The exhaust emission level will also be checked during the inspection, which are emitted by the vehicle. The diagnostician will also check the headlights with a special device, by the way, he will have all other lighting turned on. If our car has gas installed, we must show legalization during the test - without it, the car will not pass the test. Sometimes, at the end of the test, the diagnostician tells you to press the horn, to check its efficiency.

Car maintenance costs money 99 PLN and it is a fixed rate. If the car is fully operational, the test result is positive, and if a defect is detected, we have to fix it and return to the inspection. Then we have to pay an additional amount for checking this item.
