Hidden Risks, Fully Uncovered with Used Car PDI

Deep Mechanical And Electrical Inspection

CarTruth used car inspection begins with a 300-point inspection, performed by certified automotive engineers using advanced tools and OBD/ECU scanners. During the inspection, we evaluate the following systems in a used car:

  • Engine Health - Check for any leaks, unusual noise, compression loss, and unusual vibrations
  • Belts and Hoses - Ensure that all the mechanical components related to the engine are in working order
  • Alternator, Battery and Electricals - This ensures all the electrical components are working properly
  • Suspension and Steering - All suspension components are checked along with wear, & tear, alignment, stability, and safety
  • Braking System - All brake discs, brake pads, brake lines and brake fluid levels are assessed
  • Wheels and Tyres - Wheel alignment, castor, camber and toe angles are inspected along with tyre brand and wear patterns
  • Transmission and Clutch - Gear shifting and clutch operations are inspected for smooth working order
  • ECU Scanning - The car’s software is checked through an OBD tool for hidden faults, dashboard warning lights, ECU issues and sensor malfunctions
  • Paint Thickness Check - Paint thickness on exterior panels is checked with a paint thickness gauge and other tools
  • Interior Condition - All the interior panels and upholstery are closely checked for cracks, rattling noises and quality issues

Each used car inspection follows CARS24’s strict nationwide protocol, ensuring the same accuracy and professionalism across regions.
