Expert Pink Slip Inspections in West Kempsey

If your vehicle is over five years old, you’ll need a Pink Slip (e-Safety Inspection) to renew its registration in New South Wales. At Whitbread Automotive in Kempsey West, we make that process fast, simple, and stress-free with accurate inspections and clear advice.

As an authorised inspection station, Whitbread Automotive provides e-Safety Checks that meet all current NSW Transport and Service NSW requirements. We know what it takes to get your car roadworthy and registered without delays—and we’ll let you know if there are any issues before they become costly problems.

What Is a Pink Slip?

A Pink Slip is the everyday name for an e-Safety Inspection Report. This document verifies that your car is safe to drive on NSW roads and is a key requirement when renewing registration for vehicles more than five years old.

Once we complete the inspection, the results are sent electronically to Service NSW, so you can complete your rego online without needing to return to our workshop. The inspection is valid for 42 days, giving you time to sort out your registration or address any repairs if needed.

You can learn more about the official process on the Service NSW Website

What Does a Pink Slip Inspection Include?

When you bring your vehicle to Whitbread Automotive for a Pink Slip in Kempsey West, our qualified technicians will assess a range of critical safety items to make sure your car is fit for the road. This includes checks on:

  • Tyre condition and tread depth
  • Brake performance
  • Suspension and steering components
  • Lights, indicators, and windscreen wipers
  • Seatbelts and restraints
  • Fluid leaks and underbody issues
  • Vehicle body condition

The inspection is thorough, but efficient. Most checks are completed in under an hour, depending on your vehicle.

If your vehicle passes, we’ll lodge the inspection immediately. If it doesn’t, you’ll be issued with a Repairs Needed report. You then have up to 14 days to complete the necessary repairs and return for a free re-inspection.

Pink Slip vs Blue Slip – What’s the Difference?

It’s a common question: What’s the difference between a Pink Slip and a Blue Slip?

While a Pink Slip is for registration renewal of vehicles that are already registered in NSW, a Blue Slip is for vehicles that aren’t currently registered or are being registered in NSW for the first time (for example, if they’ve come from interstate or been unregistered for over three months).

At Whitbread Automotive, we focus on providing accurate Pink Slips for vehicles due for rego renewal in Kempsey West. If you’re unsure which you need, just give us a call—we’re always happy to help.
