Junjie 1st Gear March 25, 2009 Share March 25, 2009 I kana the welded on exhaust tip issue when I went for my 5th yr inspection. The inspector said cannot pass bcos of the welded exhaust tip, I told him after accident while reversing, I changed to the new exhaust tip and during my 3rd yr inspection, my ride was passed without any issues with the welded tip, why the sudden double standard? He said due to the high rate of accidents lately, mata said as long exhaust tip changed consider u mod exhuast system...I told him it's crap, how can you assume? but I talked to him nicely lah...in the end..got my cert. and said thank you to him.....

Renegade777 5th Gear March 25, 2009 Share March 25, 2009 (edited) On 3/22/2009 at 1:34 PM, Orangepineapple said: Hi bros and sis, A newbie car owner here. Just went for my first car inspection at Viccom last weekend and to my horror, my ride failed the test. for info, the wheel alignment and the headlights fail. I have no idea how it is possible as i did not do any mods to the car, especially not to the headlights! any bros and sis got any ideas how this is possible? will normal day to day driving cause the alignment and headlights to fail? also, whats the market rate nowadays to re-align the wheels? I was quoted $100.. fair? thanks very much The bad thing is that you have to pay for the inspection. And it is getting worst for I think you gotta pay again for the next inspection. I hate this inspection thingy for I dunno why these people are reaping us of our money for relatively new cars being sent for inspection. Singapore cars so new really need inspection meh..........it is just wasting our "Yuan Huang Qian". Our sweat and blood.
