Car inspection Question

[Macrosszero]

I am going for routine inspection.

 

Suppose I have a non-LTA approved modification in my car, and it is spotted during the inspection. Will the inspection issue me a fine on the spot, or tell me to go and rectify it? I know that for items such as tinted glass, the car will fail the inspection and get told to rectify it. I don't think they get fined.

 

I'm deciding whether or not to return my car to stock to pass inspection.

No fine if get inspected at inspection station for your routine inspection but will get fine by TP/LTA if bring by them to inspection centre.

I see. What if during the normal inspection halfway, then one lta bike appear and see ur ride with illegal mod leh? i noe LTA 22 U always like to appear at thompson inspection centre de :)

[Joshdway]

heard alot of inspection centres are very strict now

cuz LTA's audit is round the corner or something like that

Buying a 2nd hand car and requesting the dealer to sent to do a inpsection by (STA or Vicom)

 

Like to check if who would be a better choice? STA or Vicom??

During to"shopping" period, saw lot of dealer gng for STA.. not a lot for Vicom?? any insider note on that??

 

 

[Furrynadz]

STA obviously, vicom is basically all "ah bang" business

 

you want even more stringent, AAS, but only for AAS member or you find someone who is AAS member

i sent a fren's choice car for AAS before and picked out a few flaws with the STA "A" grade car

By law you have to present yr cars for inspection when you rec the inspection notification letter.If you fail to do so , you will not be able to renew yr road tax.

 

PS In some of the nearby countries, you just go for " under the table inspection" and complete the process by greasing the inspector's hands.

[Macrosszero]

Thank you all for your replies. My car passed the inspection without the LTA-unfriendly mod being picked up.

 

Its a small thing really.

[Ayuready]

hmm decat dp this kind can pass or not?

AAS at Bukti Batok belongs to Vicom

 

 

i dont know wat u toking abt

there are only 2 AAS centres in town, lengkee and river valley

Authorised LTA Car inspection centre at Bukit Batok use to belongs to AAS and since then have sold to Vicom. The AAS centres are just Car evaluation cntres and merely carrying out road worthiness test for customers. They do not have the fully computrised car inspection test lanes that is mandatory require in all LTA approved inspection centres.

So far only two companies in Singapore are operating the approved centres - they are STA and Vicom

Stay away from Vicom @ Kaki Bukit. I overheard a guy with a burnt light bulb, they make him come back and re-inspect! They just want more $$$.
