Pink Slip & eSafety Check Services in Kiama

When it’s time to renew your car registration in New South Wales, you may need a valid eSafety Check—commonly referred to as a Pink Slip. At Kiama Auto Services in Kiama, we’re authorised to perform eSafety Checks and issue Pink Slips that help you stay road-legal and safe.

eSafety Checks are a crucial part of the registration renewal process for vehicles more than five years old. They ensure your car meets the minimum safety standards required by the state. If your vehicle passes, we electronically lodge the inspection results with Transport for NSW, so you can complete your rego renewal without delay—often on the same day.

What is an eSafety Check (Pink Slip)?

An eSafety Check is a government-mandated vehicle inspection required before registration renewal for certain vehicles in NSW. If your car, ute, van, or light truck is over five years old, you’ll likely need an eSafety Check before renewing your registration.

At Kiama Auto Services, we carry out this inspection in accordance with the latest RMS guidelines. Once complete, we electronically send your inspection results to Service NSW, eliminating paperwork and ensuring a streamlined rego process.

The term Pink Slip is simply a legacy name from when reports were printed on pink paper. These days, everything is digital—but the safety standards are just as strict.

What’s Involved in an eSafety Check?

Your vehicle must be in a safe and roadworthy condition to pass. During the inspection, our qualified mechanics thoroughly examine all essential components, including:

  • Tyres – tread depth, condition, and even wear
  • Brakes – pads, discs, and stopping performance
  • Steering and suspension – for control, stability, and ride quality
  • Lights – including headlights, indicators, and brake lights
  • Seatbelts – checked for function, tension, and integrity
  • Windows and windscreen – chips, cracks, wipers, and washers
  • Fluid leaks – oil, coolant, transmission, and brake fluid leaks
  • Battery and electrical system – secure mount, voltage, and connections

This inspection typically takes under an hour, and our team will provide clear feedback on any issues we uncover.

What Happens After Your eSafety Check?

If your vehicle passes, we’ll upload your inspection report directly to the RMS system. You can then renew your registration online, by phone, or at a Service NSW centre straight away.

If any repairs are needed to meet roadworthy standards, we’ll explain the issues clearly and give you a quote for the required work. You’ll have up to 14 days to return for a free re-inspection once the repairs are completed.

For full details on how eSafety Checks work in NSW, you can also visit the official Service NSW website.
