Release 1 

New unit of competency.

Performance Evidence

Before competency can be determined, individuals must demonstrate they can perform the following according to the standards defined in this unit’s elements, performance criteria, range of conditions and foundation skills:

  • select the tyres and wheels of four different light vehicles to suit specific customer requirements, in which the work must involve accessing and interpreting information in manufacturer specifications relating to the selection.

Knowledge Evidence

Individuals must be able to demonstrate knowledge of:

  • Australian Design Rules relating to light vehicle tyres and wheels
  • light vehicle tyre fitment guide
  • light vehicle tyre and wheel assembly terminology and codes
  • light vehicle tread patterns, and tyre and wheel assembly types
  • specific tyre applications for varying terrain, soil and weather conditions.

Assessment Conditions

Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.

Competency is to be assessed in the workplace or a simulated environment that accurately reflects performance in a real workplace setting.

Assessment must include direct observation of tasks.

Where assessment of competency includes third-party evidence, individuals must provide evidence that links them to the light vehicle tyres and wheels that they have selected, e.g. repair orders.

Assessors must verify performance evidence through questioning on skills and knowledge to ensure correct interpretation and application.

The following resources must be made available:

  • automotive repair workplace or simulated workplace
  • workplace instructions
  • manufacturer specifications and tyre and wheel fitment guide
  • Australian Design Rules relating to light vehicle tyres and wheels
  • four different light vehicles for the selection of tyres and wheels
  • equipment and material appropriate for selecting light vehicle tyres and wheels for specific applications.
