Ensure First-Time COF Success with Our Pre-COF Service

Certificate of Fitness (COF) failures are more than just an inconvenience—they cost you money, time, and can impact your Transport Service License (TSL) rating. At Van and Truck Repairs Auckland, our Pre-COF check service boasts an impressive 95-98% first-time pass rate.

Our comprehensive inspection identifies and addresses common failure points before your official COF inspection. We thoroughly check brakes, rust issues, leaks, and all other critical components that frequently cause COF failures.

After completing your Pre-COF inspection, we provide detailed documentation of any required repairs along with a prioritized action plan. This allows you to make informed decisions about necessary vs. recommended repairs.

FAQ:

Q: What problems will a Pre-COF check catch before they fail my inspection?

A: We catch the issues that stop trucks cold at COF time: brake problems, rust spots, and fluid leaks. These silent killers are often invisible to drivers but cause immediate COF failures. Our mechanics know exactly what inspectors look for.

Q: When should I schedule my Pre-COF check?

A: Book one week before COF expiry for newer, well-maintained trucks. For older vehicles or those with higher mileage, give yourself 2-4 weeks. This ensures enough time for any repairs without rushing or paying premium rates.

Q: How does spending money on a Pre-COF check actually save me money?

A: The math is simple: One failed COF means double inspection fees, unplanned downtime, and rushed repair costs. Each failure also counts against your TSL rating. Our customers enjoy a 95-98% pass rate after Pre-COF checks—keeping your truck earning instead of sitting in a repair bay.

Q: What paperwork do I receive after my Pre-COF check?

A: You'll get a clear, straightforward report showing exactly what needs attention before your COF. If repairs are needed, we provide a detailed quote with no surprises. All documentation meets commercial vehicle compliance requirements.
