What an assessment for AURLTE104 must cover

48 assessable components: 4 elements (13 performance criteria), 2 performance evidence and 27 knowledge evidence requirements, plus 6 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.

  • 3.4Communicate findings to workplace supervisor and customer and confirm next steps

4 Complete work processes

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

Performance evidence

  • diagnose a complex fault in three different light vehicle petrol engines, in which the work for at least two of the engines must involve a different complex fault chosen from the following: - an intermittent fault - a fault that affects more than one system - a fault introduced as a result of a system repair - an indirect fault caused by the influence of external systems
  • develop a testing strategy to diagnose the cause of the complex fault in each of the three petrol engines above.

Foundation skills

  • Learning: Locates required sources of information efficiently Develops own approach to a task, including steps to confirm findings.
  • Reading: Interprets workplace instructions such as job cards Identifies, organises and interprets technical information from manufacturer and workshop literature when seeking petrol engine system specifications and procedures.
  • Oral communication: Clarifies instructions Obtains information from customers and supervisors.
  • Numeracy: Measures petrol engine system components and uses mathematical operations to calculate tolerances and deviations from manufacturer specifications Uses electrical measuring equipment and interprets units, such as amperes, ohms, and volts.
  • Planning and organising: Plans own work requirements Prioritises and sequences actions to achieve required outcomes Ensures tasks are completed within workplace timeframes.
  • Technology: Uses precision measuring equipment Uses specialised diagnostic equipment.

Questions about assessing AURLTE104

What does an assessment tool for AURLTE104 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for AURLTE104 needs to address all 48 unit components: 4 elements with 13 performance criteria, 2 performance evidence requirements, 27 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 AURLTE104?

Auditori pulls the current release of AURLTE104 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 AURLTE104 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing AURLTE104 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 AURLTE104, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
