zebra Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 Might be different in Vic but in NSW (a few years ago now) my mate had his rego cancelled because he did what Alex said, failed 1st inspection at joe bloggs, went elsewhere failed again, went back to the 1st place and passed, 5-6 months later he got a letter saying his rego was cancelled due to a failed inspection at the 2nd place, because different things were wrong/listed with the car compared to the 1st inspection (joe bloggs), So he had to get the car re-inspected. hope that makes sense...there are losts of 1st place 2nd place in there. Whether he was just unlucky and someone clued on at the RTA office stumbled across it or they actually go looking for it I don't know, but it can happen.

Depends who you go to, most places i have been to do it that too, its more so you get more time to fix stuff, you have 14 or 28 days if they fill out the proper rwc paperwork, if they just give you a piece of paper and fill the rwc paperwork on your final inspection there is no time limit. Also beware of getting 2 rwc's where the paper work has been filled out on the first inspection, i know of one person who got a call from vic roads because they wanted to inspect his car assuming that the second one was dodgy.

Yeah, i understand what you mean. Looks like the OP's experience with the popo hasn't been particularly pleasant.

alr33x Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 Vic is different he can just clear first places list and pass they can't add to the list retrospectively either so just change coils and go back should be easy Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/377384-dodgy-roadworthy/page/3/#findComment-6024578 Share on other sites More sharing options...
zedexx Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 umm since when are coilovers illegal? Considering that 'coilovers' is just a fancy name for spring and shock absorbers, sounds a lot like hearsay to me unless someone can prove otherwise. No mention of coilovers in this document, just keep it at the legal height and you will be fine. http://www.vicroads....8340/0/VSI8.pdf when they are jap tein that are not adr approved also any coilover that has a lower adjustable perch such as tein flex as far as your document doesnt mention coilovers,that doesnt mean anything No vicroads document mentions you cannot take off your steering wheel and weld a shifter on there in place,i guess that must be ok then lol Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/377384-dodgy-roadworthy/page/3/#findComment-6025219 Share on other sites More sharing options...
blah_blah Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 My car has been through a couple of road worthies in its time and has never been done for the coilovers.
