TÜV NORD Vehicle Diagnostics
The purchase inspection at Autokeuring Duitsland is supported as standard by TÜV NORD vehicle diagnostics.
Standard fault memory analysis
TÜV NORD vehicle diagnostics are a standard part of the purchase inspection carried out by Meistercheck. Electronic vehicle systems are professionally read out as a supplement to the physical inspection and, where possible, the test drive.
The Kfz-Meister always assesses these findings together with the rest of the inspection, so it becomes clear whether alerts are relevant for safety, reliability or potential future costs. This gives you a complete and reliable view of the car’s technical condition.
The vehicle diagnostic includes a basic identification of the vehicle and a check of electronic systems. The optional VIN and mileage check goes further and compares data from multiple systems to highlight deviations or inconsistencies.
Additional checks for extra certainty
Depending on the car type and your situation, the purchase inspection can be extended with additional TÜV NORD checks. These add-ons are optional and are intended to provide extra certainty when relevant.
TÜV mileage and VIN check
Verification of mileage and vehicle identity based on vehicle data. This helps reduce the risk of odometer or identity fraud.
The mileage and VIN check is available for €69 and is always carried out alongside the purchase inspection.
TÜV NORD Battery Check for electric and hybrid cars
Objective State of Health analysis of the high-voltage battery via a CARA-certified measurement process.
You receive insight into battery condition, capacity and wear as a percentage. For electric and hybrid cars, this check is especially important because the battery is a key factor for value, range and long-term suitability.
The battery check is available for €99 and is always carried out alongside the purchase inspection.
Clear assessment before you buy
The results of the TÜV NORD vehicle diagnostics and any add-ons are included in the purchase inspection report. You receive this report in Dutch, including a clear assessment and recommendation.
Before you buy, you will know:
- How the car is performing electronically and technically
- Whether there are any points of attention or risks
- And, for electric and hybrid cars, the condition of the battery

TÜV NORD vehicle diagnostics are a professional electronic vehicle check in which fault codes and system data are read from the car. This provides additional insight into the technical condition of the car and forms part of a reliable purchase inspection.
Every purchase inspection includes a TÜV NORD fault memory analysis as standard. Electronic systems are checked and assessed by a certified Kfz-Meister, together with the rest of the inspection.
Additional checks are mainly useful if there is doubt about mileage, vehicle history, or when buying an electric or hybrid car. They provide extra certainty when the situation calls for it, but they are never mandatory.
The TÜV NORD Battery Check provides insight into the State of Health (SoH) of the high-voltage battery in electric and hybrid cars. The test follows a CARA-certified measurement process and shows remaining battery capacity and wear.
No. TÜV NORD diagnostics and the Battery Check are only available as part of a purchase inspection. This ensures the outcome is assessed in the correct context of the full vehicle inspection.
