Mobile pre-purchase inspections in Spokane

A private-party sale or small-lot deal can go great or go very wrong. We meet you at the seller's location, go over the vehicle top to bottom, and give you an honest rundown so you can buy with confidence, negotiate, or walk away.

What we look at

  • Scan for stored, pending, and recently cleared trouble codes
  • Engine, transmission, and drivetrain condition
  • Brakes, tires, suspension, and steering
  • Leaks, fluid condition, belts, and hoses
  • Signs of accident repair, flood damage, or neglect
  • A test drive, when the seller allows it

Especially worth it for

  • Turbocharged and performance cars, including WRX and STI models
  • Older vehicles with incomplete service records
  • Private-party sales with no warranty

Ask the seller before we arrive so they expect an inspection. A seller who refuses one is telling you something too.

Pricing

Labor is $125/hr, and common jobs are quoted as a flat-rate price from book time. You get a written estimate before any work begins. See our pricing for trip, diagnostic, and after-hours rates.
