• Seats and cargo area are clear of personal belongings such as tool kits and that the cargo area are accessible to complete certain parts of the test.

• The vehicle is reasonably clean including the underbody.

• Wheel hubcaps are removed and the tyres are inflated to the correct pressure.

• The engine is in a fit state to be tested e.g. Timing belt/chain has been replaced in line with your manufacturer`s guidance.

• You check that the safety belts/ buckles are visible and working correctly. In the case of buses and other passenger vehicles you should make sure that you check belts and buckles for all passenger seats.

• Your registration plates are clean and comply with current regulations.

• The person who brings the vehicle for inspection brings identification with them in the form of a driving license or passport as failure to provide the required identification will result in the vehicle not being issued a pass statement and CRW should the vehicle pass the test.

• Your vehicles temperature gauge is showing as “normal” prior to arriving at the test centre for inspection.
