Since September 1, new requirements have been introduced for the mandatory technical inspection of vehicles in Russia. Portal “AvtoVzglyad” provides details.

According to the innovation, the number of vehicle control parameters during maintenance is reduced from the current 82 to 55. In particular, the corrosion and mechanical damage checks of the brake lines and the efficiency of the windshield washer fluid supply are cancelled. Henceforth, it is not the residual depth of the tire tread that is examined, but its height. Also the noise level of the exhaust system is not checked. With oil or antifreeze dripping from the engine, or any other liquid from the transmission units, battery and air conditioning, you can now safely go to the MOT too – not “packed”.

The presence of a warning triangle, a first aid kit, a fire extinguisher and the operation of a regular anti-theft device will also no longer excite the employees of the maintenance point.

Keep in mind that the mandatory regular inspection now only applies to trucks, commercial and public transport. Private cars only have to go through the procedure in the case of resale and design changes that require approval from the traffic police.
