Chassis check
The chassis says a lot about safety and future costs
Knocking, pulling to one side or uneven tyre wear may be related to the chassis. The cause is not always obvious, so checking the actual car matters.
Autoservis 1 checks visible play, common chassis parts, tyre-related symptoms and risks before Czech STK. If specialist measurement is needed, we recommend the next step.
A chassis check is useful before a long trip, after hitting a pothole or when unusual noises appear.
When to book a chassis check
- knocking or banging over bumps
- the car pulls to one side or feels unstable
- tyres wear unevenly
- Czech STK is approaching or a wheel hit a pothole
What we check
- we ask when the noise or behaviour appears
- we check visible play and common parts
- we assess relation to tyres and brakes
- we recommend repair or further specialist check
Chassis, tyres and brakes often connect
The workshop is useful for drivers from Červený Újezd, Unhošť, Prague-West, Hostivice, Rudná, Kladno, Jeneč and Zličín. The address at Unhošťská 92 makes routine checks easier without driving into central Prague.
Uneven tyre wear or vibration may not be only a tyre issue. Chassis, brakes and wheels often need to be considered together.
Indicative prices
Any repair is agreed only after the check and your approval. All items are in the price list. We're not VAT-registered, prices are final.
FAQ about chassis checks
There is a knocking from the front — what can it be?
Typically play in control arms, stabiliser links, bushings or shock absorbers. A CZK 500 chassis check finds the exact cause; we then agree what is urgent and what can wait.
Is chassis knocking dangerous?
It depends on the cause. Some play is safety-critical, some can be planned. Inspection is needed.
Can you identify wheel alignment issues?
We can point out symptoms such as uneven tyre wear and recommend measurement if needed.
Is a chassis check useful before STK?
Yes, chassis issues are common reasons for technical inspection problems.
