What's included in a multi-point inspection?
While every auto shop has their own checklist that they use, in general a multi-point inspection will include a visual inspection of your tires, belts, hoses, shocks and struts. The technician will also check all the fluids such as your engine oil, coolant, brake and transmission fluid to ensure the levels are topped up and the fluid is in good condition.
Your auto inspection should also cover a road test to check that your transmission is shifting smoothly, your steering is tight and your brakes are safe, and a load test may be performed on your battery. Depending on the make and model of your vehicle, the auto shop may also connect a computerized diagnostic system to check for electronic faults and codes.
What are the benefits of having a multi-point inspection done?
If you're like most drivers you have a basic understanding of how your car works, but when it comes to auto maintenance, you'd rather leave it up to the professionals. Having a multi-point vehicle inspection done gives you a comprehensive report on the condition of your vehicle, making you a more informed car owner. This is particularly important when you've reached the point where you need to decide if it's worth keeping your car for a few more years, or if it's time to trade before you're faced with big repair bills.
Having a complete auto inspection done also helps you manage your auto maintenance budget in a way that works for you and your family. Your mechanic will be able to tell you if any repairs are needed now as well as when you'll need to perform maintenance and repairs in the future. And because a multi-point vehicle inspection if a great way to spot small problems like worn belts and minor leaks, having this service done gives you the chance to fix minor issues that could eventually leave you stranded on the side of the road.
