VI - Where?

Long story short,
I got a VI BOX 1 and the vehicle got towed away immediately last week.

Officer who pulled me over told me;
- I have massive oil leak from passenger's side axel/ripped cv boot
- Rear camber need to be re-adjusted as it look like wheels are "sunked in" too much.

Does anyone have specific shop recommendation taking the vehicle in for VI and hopefully let you off the hook bit easier?

Coquitlam area would be great.

Vehicle is 05' Accord, mildly-lowered with Tein S.Tech & Koni Yellow shocks.

I have replaced axles, waiting to pick up rear camber kit and re-adjust camber.

*Side Note:
VI paper I was served does not state anything other than my information, vehicle information, and check mark on VI Box1.
Does not state the above concerns that officer verbally told me as a reasoning.



Thanks in advance!

When taking in for VI inspection, they are required to inspect your entire vehicle and bring up issues they find, even if the police officer did not mention it.

That's why it doesn't matter what the officer wrote. All that matters is he indicated Box 1 VI.

As for shops, it shouldn't matter where you take it as they all go by the same guidelines. Any shop that lets you off the hook easier is setting themselves to lose their license to be a licensed VI inspection location.

Nobody is going to publicly tell you which shops to go to. Maybe not even over PM... Those are tightly guarded secrets. I personally don't even know which shops to ask that are lenient, but I do have friends who I can call that will tell me.

Sorry I couldn't be much help.
