What an assessment for AURTTD005 must cover
37 assessable components: 5 elements (22 performance criteria), 2 performance evidence and 6 knowledge evidence requirements, plus 7 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 dismantle steering system components
- 1.1Job requirements are determined from workplace instructions
- 1.2Dismantling information is sourced and interpreted
- 1.3Dismantling options are analysed and those most appropriate to the circumstances are selected
- 1.4Hazards associated with the work are identified and risks are managed
- 1.5Dismantling tools and equipment are selected and checked for serviceability
2 Dismantle and evaluate steering system components
- 2.1Components are dismantled in a logical sequence according to manufacturer and workplace procedures, and safety and environmental requirements, and without causing unnecessary damage to components or systems
- 2.2Component is cleaned for evaluation according to workplace procedures and safety and environmental requirements
- 2.3Component is measured and compared with manufacturer specifications and serviceability is determined
- 2.4Component repair method is determined
- 2.5serviceable parts are identified and replacement parts sourced
3 Carry out overhaul
- 3.1Overhaul information is sourced and interpreted
- 3.2Overhaul options are analysed and those most appropriate to the circumstances are selected
- 3.3Overhaul tools and equipment are selected and checked for serviceability
- 3.4Components are machined, repaired and replaced as required, and adjustments are carried out according to manufacturer specifications, workplace procedures, and safety and environmental requirements, and without causing damage to components or systems
4 Assemble components
- 4.1Components are assembled according to manufacturer specifications, workplace procedures, and safety and environmental requirements
- 4.2Tolerances and clearances are measured against manufacturer specifications and necessary adjustments are made
- 4.3Assembly of components is completed within workplace timeframes and without causing damage to other components or systems
- 4.4Post-assembly testing is carried out according to workplace procedures and safety and environmental requirements, and any problems detected as having been introduced during the assembly process are rectified
5 Complete work processes
- 5.1Final inspection is made to ensure work is to workplace expectations and components are presented ready for use or storage
- 5.2Work area is cleaned, waste and non-recyclable materials are disposed of, and recyclable material is collected
- 5.3Tools and equipment are checked and stored according to workplace procedures
- 5.4Workplace documentation is processed according to workplace procedures
Performance evidence
- overhaul two different power steering pumps
- overhaul one of the following components: power rack and pinion steering box, steering column, recirculating ball steering box
Knowledge evidence
- work health and safety (WHS) and occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements relating to overhauling steering system components, including procedures for using: specialised steering system component overhaul tools, equipment and machinery; chemicals and toxic substances; environmental requirements, including procedures for trapping, storing and disposing of fluids released from steering systems
- types, characteristics and operating principles of steering systems and associated components
- steering system component overhaul procedures, including: methods for cleaning and preparing steering system components for overhaul; steering system component dismantling procedures; steering system component inspection, measuring and evaluation procedures, including methods for measuring and calculating tolerances and clearances
- steering system component repair and adjustment procedures, including: power steering pumps; power rack and pinion steering boxes; steering columns; recirculating ball steering boxes
- steering system component assembly procedures, including procedures for measuring and calculating tolerances, and adjusting components
- post-overhaul testing procedures for steering system components
Foundation skills
- Learning skills: locate sources of information for steering systems components efficiently.
- Reading skills: interpret and assess information from manufacturer and workshop literature when seeking steering system component specifications and procedures.
- Writing skills: legibly and accurately fill out workplace documentation when reporting diagnostic findings, making repair recommendations, and recording parts and material used.
- Oral communication skills: clarify instructions, report evaluation findings and make overhaul recommendations.
- Numeracy skills: measure steering system components and use basic mathematical operations, including addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, to calculate distances, areas, volumes, tolerances and deviations from manufacturer specifications.
- Planning and organising skills: plan own work requirements and prioritise and sequence actions to achieve required outcomes and ensure tasks are completed within workplace timeframes.
- Technology skills: use precision measuring equipment, such as vernier calipers and micrometers.

Questions about assessing AURTTD005
What does an assessment tool for AURTTD005 need to cover?
To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for AURTTD005 needs to address all 37 unit components: 5 elements with 22 performance criteria, 2 performance evidence requirements, 6 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 AURTTD005?
Auditori pulls the current release of AURTTD005 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 AURTTD005 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.
Can I check my existing AURTTD005 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 AURTTD005, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
