Hi guys, my car got the yellow sticker put on it today. Just want to know how much it cost for an inspection. My car was defected for the wheels. They where too wide for the soarer rears and stuck out the gards.

Can anyone here with pass experience tell me what happens during the inspection and what I should expect. Thank you

you will probably have to change the wheels..
And then take it through, where they may find other things to fix.
OR they may just pass you if the car is pretty good.
Most cars have to go through twice..

And my car has the trc, abs warning but it doesnt light up on the dash, only flickers on and off at time to time, would that be another problem? the traction control does not turn on due to that issue. And my suspension is abit saggy aswell

I can't remember where but somewhere it should specify weather you have to go to Regency or just a cop shop.

If it is just a cop shop they will only look at the defected area as long as the car doesn't look like a piece of or is too low etc.

They wont even look inside to notice your flashing light mate.

If it is regency then you will be looked at closer. You can call them to ask these questions directly to them you will find their number on google somewhere.

Just btw, i have got 3 cars through regency 1st shot. Just be nice and friendly to them and present your car well, fix any obvious saftey issues or illegal sizes, heights, unsecured batterys, dark tint etc. and you will be ok. They are not really Natzis from my experience..

sorry i didnt read the title, it is regency. I doubt any of those will cause any issues as they are not illegal or unsafe within reason. Give them a call, once ages ago I was able to obtain a list of everything that they check. Tick it all off at home before you go and that will be the only way that you will feel confident in heading up there as nobody on here will be able to give you any 100% answers.

GUYS GUYS GUYSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS! just read my defect notice again and there are a whole lot of things wrong here. Fist it says i drive a toyota "SEDAS"
second it says i have been defected for "TYRES" and is ticked there. It does not say i have any track issues at all.
DEFECT CATEGORY: MAJOR

but in this super messy writting is says something about track. Can i take this up with the police and question them? My mate had 22's on his statesmen and he was sent to cop shop....

and the last thing, it doesn't even say my plate number anywhere...

I'd check the legality of the defect notice then...though i'm not sure how you would go about that
i seem to remember something a while ago that if it's not all 100% correct then it's rubbish

Mate call your lawyer or legal aid if you don't have one as the police will probably just tell you that you have to obey it.

Then he reads the paper and goes ummmm, tyres ummmmmmmmmmmm....i dont know, you are going to have to ask regency.... OMG you guys are the ones who gave me this defect and you are the guys that can clear COP SHOP defects and you dont even know...

So basicly i have to go ask regency now.

Why not if a free, simple phone call will save you lots of money and heart ache?? Call motor reg aswel to see if it was even processed.. May not be due to all the incorrect info the cop put into the system??

If the car is unsafe, fix it without question anyway. Agreed.

Wait what?

Edit: also i know you came to a forum where everyone has opinions about the law, but have you just been to and read through:

http://www.lawhandbook.sa.gov.au/ch10s08s04.php

But if you're going to call out a police officer i suggest you first get to know some of the law.


Subdivision 1—Defect notices relating to breaches of vehicle standards or
maintenance requirements
145—Defect notices
(1) In this section—
defect notice means a notice issued under subsection (5);
repairs means repairs, replacements, reconditioning, additions, adjustments or work of
any kind for remedying deficiencies or defects;
safety risk means a danger to persons, property or the environment;
vehicle registration authority means the Registrar of Motor Vehicles or the
corresponding authority of another State or a Territory of the Commonwealth.
(1aa) For the purposes of this section, a vehicle has deficiencies if the vehicle is in a
condition such that there would be a breach of a vehicle standards or maintenance
requirement if the vehicle were driven on a road.
(1a) A police officer or an authorised officer may direct the driver of a vehicle to stop the
vehicle and may examine the vehicle where the vehicle has deficiencies or the police
officer or authorised officer suspects on reasonable grounds that the vehicle has
deficiencies.
(1b) Despite subsection (1a), a police officer or an authorised officer may direct the driver
of a vehicle of a prescribed class to stop the vehicle and may examine the vehicle for
the purposes of determining whether the vehicle has deficiencies (whether or not there
is reason to suspect that the vehicle has deficiencies).
(2) Where a police officer or an authorised officer suspects on reasonable grounds that
any vehicle has deficiencies, the police officer or authorised officer may direct the
owner, the operator or the person in charge of the vehicle to produce it for
examination at a specified time and place.
(2a) A police officer or an authorised officer may, at any time when any premises where
vehicles are exhibited or kept for sale or hire are open for business, for the purposes of
determining whether any vehicle exhibited or kept for sale or hire on those premises
has deficiencies, examine the vehicle or direct the owner, the operator or the person in
charge of the vehicle to produce it for examination at a time and place stated by the
police officer or authorised officer.
(3) A person must comply with a direction given under this section.
Road Traffic Act 1961—29.9.2008
Part 4—Vehicle standards, mass and loading requirements and safety provisions

under this section—
(a) cause the vehicle to be examined by any other person; and
(b) drive or test, or cause any other person to drive or test, the vehicle.
(4a) If, on examination of a vehicle, a police officer or an authorised officer is of the
opinion that the vehicle has deficiencies but that further use of the vehicle on roads
would not give rise to a safety risk, the police officer or authorised officer may issue a
formal written warning to the driver of the vehicle or, if the vehicle is unattended,
cause a formal written warning to be affixed to the vehicle.
(4b) A driver of a vehicle who is given a formal written warning must cause the warning to
be sent to the registered operator of the vehicle.
(4c) A formal written warning must—
(a) state the date of issue of the warning; and

(5) If, on examination of a vehicle, a police officer or an authorised officer is of the
opinion that the vehicle has deficiencies and reasonably believes that further use of the
vehicle on roads would give rise to a safety risk, the police officer or authorised
officer may issue a written notice (a defect notice) in relation to the vehicle, being—
(a) if the police officer or authorised officer reasonably believes that further use
of the vehicle on roads after the time specified in the notice would give rise to
an imminent and serious safety risk—a major vehicle defect notice; or
(b) in any other case—a minor vehicle defect notice.
(5a) A police officer or authorised officer who issues a defect notice in relation to a vehicle
must—
(a) give the defect notice to the driver of the vehicle if the driver is present or, if
the vehicle is unattended, cause the defect notice to be affixed to the vehicle;
and
(b) cause a defective vehicle label to be affixed to the vehicle; and

a vehicle for the purpose of determining whether the repairs required by a defect

deficiencies.
(5e) A defective vehicle label must—

I don't think they can defect you for some peeling on your paint job, or a different colour bumper, or surface rust (a small amount).

Do you mean your Airconditioner button light? Definately not.

They will definitely not pass you for not having a decent sound system hooked up. I once had this tape deck that had one speaker and regency said the sound quality was not good enough.

I told them that high fidelity sound makes me angry and they passed it when I started shouting crazed rantings about audio compression and digital media formats.

Lol they're not going to pull your car apart to look at what globes you're using :-P

Also I highly doubt (to the highest degree without being a lawyer) that they can defect you for that. It's a modification that doesn't need a engineering plate. Most things like that are fully legal. Just don't do the wiring so bad you cause fire while they are in the car.. that's usually a bad start. ;)
