## The engine light at the vehicle inspection

At the vehicle inspection the engine light is checked through the OBD port: on petrol cars from 2001 and diesels from 2004.

So call us for diagnostics a few days before the inspection, so you know in time what needs fixing. [More about car diagnostics](https://autoindustrija.rs/en/services/car-diagnostics)

## Questions

How much does the vehicle inspection cost?

It depends on the type of vehicle and the station, within the limits the government sets. We tell you the total price before we book the appointment. [More about the price of registration](https://autoindustrija.rs/en/advice/how-much-does-vehicle-registration-cost)

My OBD port has been relocated. What should I do before the inspection?

Before the inspection plug the adapter into the hidden port. The factory port is in its place, so the device at the inspection plugs into it as before. After the inspection take the adapter out and keep it. [More about OBD at the vehicle inspection](https://autoindustrija.rs/en/advice/relocated-obd-port-inspection)
