chopobo Posted March 9, 2003 Share Posted March 9, 2003 ok was in my friend's integra tonight the cop defected for low ride height non working handbrake non working horn blue parkers now the cop said we didn't have to take it to epa just need a roadworthy certificate and jus take it to vicroads to remove the defect sticker now my question is when we get the roadworthy, do we have to show them the paper that has the list of all the defects or can we just get a normal roadworthy certificate? and when we take it to vicroads, will they check the car for all the defects even if we hand in the road worthy certificate? really need help a.s.a.p we got defected tonight, and they issued the defect till Tuesday. IS that correct? only 2 days to fix the defect? please help me out, this is first time having a defect and we are really unsure about matters. thankz Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/11797-need-help-on-defect/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest INASNT Posted March 10, 2003 Share Posted March 10, 2003 just take it to some1 you know who can give u a roadworthy, then just take the paper work to vic roads, but go at about 12.30 - 1.00pm when it real busy and hand the papers in. If they ask to see the car tell them its still at the mechanics coz u aint meant to drive it till get the defect cleared. They are so busy and they know of the bullshit defects the cops are giving out they will just clear it on the computer and tell you to take the sticker off! I know coz this is the second time i have done it and the most recent one was 1 month ago. A tip, go to vicroads in Oakley at about 1.00pm its so busy they will clear it without even a second glance.

DentonR33 Posted March 10, 2003 Share Posted March 10, 2003 When i got my defect removed the Vicroads guy came out and THOROUGHLY checked the 100mm ride height, rolling a 100mm wheel indicator under the car all the way from the front to the rear tyres! Then he took the roadworthy forms and removed the defect notice for me. Had to chuck on stock rims and pump them to 65psi to clear 100mm Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/11797-need-help-on-defect/#findComment-208247 Share on other sites More sharing options...
