2. Brakes & Suspension: Pad and rotor thickness measurement, brake line integrity check, shock absorber condition, ball joint and bushing wear assessment.

3. Electronics & Electrical: Battery load test, alternator output verification, lighting system function (headlights, taillights, turn signals), infotainment system operation, sensor reading verification.

4. Body & Paint: Panel gap consistency measurement, rust and corrosion inspection, paint thickness readings (to identify respray or accident repair), glass integrity check.

5. Interior & Features: Seat and upholstery condition, climate control function, power window and lock operation, odometer reading verification against service records.

6. Undercarriage & Frame: Frame straightness verification, exhaust system condition, fuel and brake line condition, underbody rust and corrosion assessment.
