What You Receive
A Focused Cosmetic PDI Report You Can Trust
Dealerships often rush pre-delivery processes or hide transit dents, panel repaints, and fitment defects under quick touch-ups. Our independent experts work solely in your interest — assessing the cosmetic truth of your car before you register or pay the final amount.
  • Dent and paint condition check across all body panels
  • Body fitment quality — doors, hood, boot, and bumper alignment
  • Panel gap uniformity — identifying uneven gaps that indicate past damage
  • Accident and old car condition assessment — signs of previous repairs or hidden damage
  • Interior condition check — seat quality, dashboard, trim, headliner, carpet
  • High-resolution photo/video evidence of every defect found
  • Expert recommendation — accept delivery, demand fixes, or request a replacement VIN

PDI INSPECTION SCOPE

What Our Experts Check — Cosmetic PDI Only

A precise, focused cosmetic inspection covering 5 critical areas to ensure your car arrives in true showroom condition.

Dent & Paint Condition
We inspect every panel for dents, scratches, paint irregularities, buffer marks, or transit repaints. Any panel showing paint mismatch or thickness anomaly is flagged with photographic evidence.
Body Fitment Issues
We check how all body parts — doors, hood, boot lid, bumpers, fenders — fit together. Poor fitment is often a sign of transit damage, accident repair, or manufacturing defect.
Body Parts & Panel Gaps
We measure and compare gap uniformity between all adjacent panels. Uneven gaps are a reliable indicator of a panel replacement, realignment, or an undisclosed accident history.
Accident & Old Car Condition Check
We assess whether the car shows signs of a prior accident, repaired damage, or ageing beyond expected storage. This includes paint surface irregularities, overspray, body ripples, and seam sealant inspection.
Interior Condition Check
We inspect the interior for seat quality, dashboard integrity, headliner condition, carpet and mat cleanliness, door trims, and any visible scratches or damage inside the cabin.
Photo & Video Evidence Report
Every issue found is documented with high-resolution photos and videos. You receive a clear report you can directly share with your dealer's sales representative to demand corrections or replacement.
Not Included in Our PDI Scope

  • Electrical / ECU Testing

FAQ

Common Questions

How much does the PDI inspection cost?
The PDI inspection fee is ₹5,000 (+ applicable GST). This fee is fully waived if you book any detailing service from Detailing Bull — PPF, Ceramic Coating, Graphene Coating, Interior Detailing, Exterior Detailing, or any other package. If you choose to detail elsewhere, the standard fee applies.
What exactly does your PDI cover?
Our PDI is a focused cosmetic inspection only. We check Dent & Paint condition, Body Fitment Issues, Body Panel Gaps, Accident / Old Car Condition Assessment, and Interior Condition. We do not perform mechanical, engine, electrical, or software diagnostics.
Where does the inspection take place?
Our expert visits the dealership stockyard or showroom where your allocated vehicle is parked. Alternatively, you or the dealer can bring the vehicle to the nearest Detailing Bull studio before registration.
Why do I need a PDI on a brand new car?
New cars often suffer cosmetic damage during transit — dents, scratches, repainted panels, or poor body fitment. A PDI lets you catch these defects before registration while you still have the power to reject the vehicle or demand fixes from the dealer.
How long does a PDI take?
A complete cosmetic PDI takes approximately 45–60 minutes. You receive a photo/video report and immediate expert recommendation on whether to accept, demand fixes, or request a replacement vehicle.
Will the dealer allow an outside inspector at their stockyard?
Yes. As a buyer paying full price, inspecting your car before registration is your right. Reputable dealerships always allow buyers and their technical representatives to inspect the allocated vehicle prior to delivery.
