Pre- Drive Clean Test Tips

Your vehicle can be refused from a drive clean test for the following reasons:

• a leaky exhaust
• bald tires on the live drive axle
• fluids leaking from the engine compartment
• fuel leaks
• a rusted out fuel filler neck where your gas cap seals
• a fuel cap that wont hold pressure

Here are a few items to check prior to the test:

• check coolant level in radiator with vehicle cold
• ensure engine oil is fresh 1- 2 months old under 4,000 kilometers
• visual inspection for any disconnected or leaking vacuum or vent hoses
• check pcv valve

For a nominal charge we can check these items during an oil change. Do not have a tune-up done or any other extensive repairs at a non authorized drive clean repair facility prior to the test as they are not considered part of the $ 450.00 repair cost limit if the vehicle fails the test.
