What an assessment for AURLTD106 must cover

33 assessable components: 4 elements (16 performance criteria), 2 performance evidence and 10 knowledge evidence requirements, plus 5 foundation skills. An audit-defensible tool maps every question and task back to these — that mapping is the coverage matrix Auditori generates alongside the assessment.

Elements & performance criteria

1 Prepare to carry out light vehicle wheel alignment

  • 1.1Identify job requirements from workplace instructions

2 Carry out light vehicle wheel alignment pre-checks

  • 2.1Test vehicle according to workplace procedures and workplace health and safety requirements
  • 2.2Complete vehicle wheel alignment pre-check according to manufacturer specifications, workplace procedures, and workplace health and safety requirements
  • 2.3Identify and report faults according to workplace procedures

3 Carry out vehicle wheel alignment activities

  • 3.1Obtain and interpret light vehicle wheel alignment information
  • 3.2Connect wheel alignment measuring equipment to vehicle according to manufacturer specifications and workplace procedures
  • 3.3Carry out wheel alignment and record readings
  • 3.4Carry out corrective adjustments to wheel according to manufacturer specifications, workplace procedures, and workplace health and safety requirements
  • 3.5Re-check wheel alignment and confirm accuracy of adjustments
  • 3.6Record post-adjustment wheel alignment readings according to workplace procedures

4 Complete work processes

  • 4.1Conduct final inspection according to workplace procedures and confirm vehicle is ready for use
  • 4.2Clear work area and dispose of or recycle materials according to workplace procedures
  • 4.3Complete documentation according to workplace procedures

Performance evidence

  • align all four wheels of: one front wheel drive vehicle, one rear wheel drive vehicle
  • while completing the above tasks, adjust all of the following steering angles: camber, caster, steering axis inclination (SAI), toe (toe-in and toe-out), toe-out on turns

Knowledge evidence

  • methods to locate and interpret information required to carry out light vehicle wheel alignment including: manufacturer specifications and procedures, workplace procedures
  • workplace procedures required to carry out light vehicle wheel alignment including: establishing serviceability of tools and equipment, pre and post wheel alignment procedures, documentation procedures, housekeeping procedures including: examination of tools and equipment, storage of equipment, identification, tagging and isolation of faulty equipment, disposal of excess materials, recycling procedures
  • workplace health and safety (WHS) requirements relating to light vehicle wheel alignment, including: procedures for using air jacks
  • steering geometry and wheel alignment angles, including: Ackermann principle of steering, camber, caster, SAI, thrust angle, toe-in and toe-out, toe-out on turns, included angle, point of intersection, scrub radius
  • vehicle pre-alignment inspection procedures, including: analysing tyre wear, determining wheel run-out, determining vehicle height, checking frame alignment
  • types and operation of wheel alignment systems, including: laser aligners, visual aligners, camera aligners
  • relationships between fault symptoms and component defects
  • procedures for measuring and adjusting steering angles, including: camber, caster, steering axis inclination, thrust angle, toe, toe-out on turns
  • procedures for carrying out four-wheel alignment
  • post-wheel alignment testing procedures for light vehicles including steering system reset procedures to calibrate on-board system sensors with the steering geometry

Foundation skills

  • Learning: Locates required sources of information efficiently.
  • Reading: Interprets safe operating procedures for wheel alignment equipment from workplace signs and procedures and manufacturer specifications. Interprets information from manufacturer specifications and workshop literature when seeking vehicle wheel alignment specifications and procedures.
  • Numeracy: Measures steering and suspension system components. Uses basic mathematical operations, including addition, subtraction and understanding angles in degrees. Calculates distances, tolerances and deviations from manufacturer specifications. Uses measurements in metric and imperial units of measurement.
  • Planning and organising: Identifies and prepares tools and equipment to allow the job to be completed without time wastage. Plans own work requirements. Prioritises actions to achieve required outcomes. Ensures tasks are completed within workplace timeframes.
  • Technology: Uses precision measuring equipment.

Questions about assessing AURLTD106

What does an assessment tool for AURLTD106 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for AURLTD106 needs to address all 33 unit components: 4 elements with 16 performance criteria, 2 performance evidence requirements, 10 knowledge evidence requirements, and the foundation skills. A coverage matrix mapping each question and task to these components is what an auditor looks for.

How does Auditori generate an assessment tool for AURLTD106?

Auditori pulls the current release of AURLTD106 from training.gov.au and generates a complete package: candidate assessment, assessor guide with model answers and observation criteria, and a coverage matrix mapping every component. A suitably qualified person then reviews and approves the draft in a built-in workflow — consistent with ASQA's guidance on AI use in VET — before export as branded PDF and editable Word.

Is the first assessment tool really free?

Yes. Every new account includes one free credit — enough to generate the complete assessment tool for AURLTD106 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing AURLTD106 assessment instead of generating a new one?

Yes — upload your existing assessment or learner guide and Auditori maps it against every element, performance criterion, PE and KE of AURLTD106, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
