A new car gets a 4 year WOF, then every 2 years until it is 14 years old, then an annual WOF

We need to inspect the seatbelts so don't put baby back into the seat until you're sure it's all secure.

If your current WOF has expired then legally you should only drive to have the vehicle repaired. Our Inspector will tell you if the fail items are critical safety items.

Generally not. Braking system and driver assist system (ADAS) warning lights are safety fails. But if it is only a service light then this will be OK.

Our quieter times are midweek days and most mornings before 10am. Busiest times are Mondays, Fridays and Saturday mornings.

This depends on how many people are ahead of you but generally allow 30 to 40 mins. If there is no-one ahead it will be quicker than that. If there looks to be a line ask at Reception and they will give you guidance

Yes we offer discounts for Gold Card, Students, Police, Fire Service, DHB and Ambulance staff. Just provide your relevant ID at reception.

No, no booking is required.

Monday to Saturday each week, except public holidays

Yes we do Motorcycles but it pays to call and check we have a Motorcycle qualified inspector on site – there are few Motorcycle qualified WOF inspectors these days.

Yes. All our branches can do a WOF to COFA conversion, and update your COFA when in-service.

A WOF standard is assessed on the day of inspection only, not how it might be in 6 months time. A list of items covered in a WOF in here: www.drivesure.net.nz/whatsinawof (page to be created)

PSV COF’s for Ubers and Taxi’s are 6 months, Rental Cars are 12 months.

Look for the signs above the inspection lanes and park your car. Note the license plate number and come into reception to check in.

There is a 28 day period to get WOF repairs done and return for a free Recheck. After 28 days a new inspection must be done, and a fee paid.

Independence from WOF repairs is important to us and we will not fail it unless it’s broken. If it is a minor item like wiper blades or a light bulb the team can usually take care of that. Larger repairs like tyres or steering/suspension are best done by your usual mechanic or we can provide you a choice of repairers.

Yes, this is recommended to keep insurance current and use our quiet days. We will add up to 14 days onto your new WOF expiry if you bring it in early.

We need to inspect all seatbelts and the boot area so keep these clear and accessible. Check your lights are working and the tyres have good tread and air in them. Check your service sticker as you may want that done at the same time.

Yes, All Drivesure branches check your engine oil, and can do an oil change if you choose.

Of Course! We welcome dogs at Drivesure and usually have a water bowl and outside tie point available. Dogs cannot be in the vehicle during the inspection but you can bring them inside if they are people friendly.

You can get a recheck at any Drivesure branch

All Drivesure branches can lift pink or green stickered vehicles. Bring in the notice received so we know what it was ordered off the road for and our team will do the rest.

All Drivesure branches accept Cash, Visa, Mastercard, AMEX, Debit cards and Afterpay.

Yes, all Drivesure branches can provide WINZ quotes and accept green card payment.

Absolutely, It is so easy to forget when your WOF is next due. We can send a TXT message, email or postcard. And that is all we send you, so no marketing emails – ever.
