Licensed mechanic giving a passed inspection on a used car
Built by a real, licensed mechanic

This isn't a generic checklist copied from the internet. Every item here is something a working mechanic actually checks on a pre-purchase inspection — including the things sellers hope you'll miss.

Kyle, the friend who says he knows cars Tyler, about to buy a used car
Every buyer has a "Kyle."

The friend who insists he knows cars, taps the hood twice, and says it sounds fine. Then the smoke starts. Don't let your only inspection be a guy who's confident but wrong — run the real 58-point checklist below before you hand over a dollar.

Alex, your inspection guide📖 How to fill in this checklist — read this first
Tap "Good" when the item looks fine, works correctly, or passes your check. You inspected it and nothing seems wrong. This is a positive sign for that item.
Example: Engine oil is amber-coloured and at the right level → tap Good
Tap "Problem" when you notice something wrong, unusual, or matching the warning sign described below the item. Don't be afraid to mark problems — they help you negotiate a lower price. One problem is rarely a deal-breaker on its own.
Example: Engine oil is jet black and smells burnt → tap Problem
Tap "Skip" only when the item does not apply to this specific car. Use this for checks that genuinely don't exist on this vehicle. Don't use it just to avoid checking — fewer checks means a less accurate result for you.
Example: "Test clutch — manual transmission" on an automatic car → tap Skip
💡 Tip: Each item shows a grey note explaining exactly what to look for and what it might cost to fix. Read it before tapping. When you tap Problem, a notes box opens so you can describe what you saw — this appears in your report later.
