What is a 600-point car inspection?
A 600-point car inspection is a complete evaluation (exhaustive bumper-to-bumper testing) of the vehicle's mechanical, structural, and electronic health. In Dubai, this includes specialized testing for GCC-spec compliance, extreme AC pull-down performance tests for extreme heat, and chassis integrity scans to check the pristine history of the vehicle.
Our inspection goes beyond surface checks to address thermal fatigue. According to research from SAE International, prolonged exposure to 45°C+ temperatures can lead to micro-fractures in cooling components and a 20% drop in AC compressor efficiency—risks we specifically test for in our climate-optimized audit.
600-Point Inspection: The Benchmark in Dubai
The remarkable difference between a 600-point pre-purchase inspection (PPI) and the mediocre RTA checks is the forensic audit of your vehicle. It goes beyond that to delve into 'hidden' risks that are unique to the UAE region, such as access of sand in air filters and chassis fatigue arising out of extreme heat. From the ECU history analysis, our master technicians can tell whether fault codes had recently been cleared to hide mechanical issues. This type of transparency ensures you don't just buy into a car but secure an asset that is trusted.
Structural Assurance & Chassis Mapping
Your safety is our priority. We utilize ultrasonic paint thickness gauges and digital mapping to ascertain both original factory finish and chassis integrity, thereby confirming structural integrity and high resale value.
Climate-Optimized Performance (AC & Cooling)
We ensure your car is for the UAE. The cooling system undergoes thermal efficiency scanning while AC output is measured. The cabin must reach a delightful 20 degrees regardless of the 45-degree day outside, which comforts you and guarantees mechanical reliability across the year.
Digital ECU Health Scan
Modern vehicles rely upon functioning electronics. Our technicians perform a deep scan diagnostic test internally that extracts the present and historical data from the engine control. Unit (ECU) and Transmission Control Unit (TCU). This exposes the "brain" of the vehicle and gives a picture of its electronic health for long-term clarity.
