BMW Multi-Point Inspection Information

A Knauz BMW multi-point inspection is an in-depth visual assessment conducted by factory-trained technicians, designed to meticulously evaluate your vehicle's critical systems and components. This comprehensive inspection encompasses essential elements, including fluids, brakes, tires, suspension, battery, belts, hoses, lights, interior controls, and other vital components. The primary goal is to identify any signs of wear, damage, or potential issues, ensuring your vehicle operates safely and performs optimally.


What the Inspection Includes

A Knauz BMW multi-point inspection typically covers the following areas:

Fluids: Technicians assess the levels and condition of essential fluids, including engine oil, coolant, transmission fluid, brake fluid, and windshield washer fluid. They will also top off fluids below optimal levels, ensuring your vehicle runs smoothly.

Brakes: The braking system is thoroughly inspected, and brake pads, rotors, and fluid lines are examined for signs of wear, damage, or leaks. This is crucial for maintaining safe stopping power.

Tires: The tires are checked for adequate tread depth, correct air pressure, and overall health to ensure optimal traction and safety under all driving conditions. This includes looking for signs of uneven wear that may indicate alignment issues.

Battery: An electrical performance test evaluates the battery's condition, confirming its ability to start the vehicle reliably and support various electronic components within the car.

Engine & Belts: Key engine components, including drive belts and hoses, are inspected closely for signs of wear or potential failure. This helps prevent unexpected breakdowns and extend the life of the engine.

Suspension: The suspension system, which plays a critical role in ride comfort and vehicle handling, is inspected for any wear or damage, ensuring that your vehicle provides a smooth driving experience.

Exhaust System: The inspection includes a thorough check for leaks and damage within the exhaust system, which is vital for performance and environmental safety.

Safety Features: A comprehensive check of all critical safety features, including the horn, seat belts, interior and exterior lights, and gauges, ensures these systems are operational and practical.

Windshield & Wipers: The Wipers are examined for signs of wear and functionality, and the windscreen is inspected for cracks or chips that could impact visibility.

Interior Functions: Tests are performed on key interior functions, such as climate control systems, seat belt mechanisms, and electronic controls, to ensure proper driver and passenger comfort.
