Insp 2 items
 

Going to Elms soon for my insp2, can someone please post a list of whats replaced on one as im thinking of doing brake fluid, diff oil and not sure if they are included in an insp2 anyway.

All the stuff comes as a kit in one big box now for our cars.

I didnt think that included fluids ?

Could well be right, I'd have to 'phone a friend' :-D

Final Inspection

Road test with check of brakes, suspension, steering, clutch/manual transmission or automatic transmission

Whats the recommendation on intervals between inspection services?

2 years or mileage related whatever is the lesser of the the two.

Oil service
Inspection I
Oil service
inspection II
And back to oil service...

Elms apparently change diff and trans fluid with insp 2 just had mine done.....brake fluid is not included...

The brake fluid service interval is time based - every 2 years; rather than the milage based inspection1 and 2.....

Do they not check shim clearance on the camshafts on the inspection 2 ?
