AURMTQ001
Analyse and repair faults in performance driveline systems

Assessment tool

Version 1.0
Issue Date: March 2024


This unit describes the performance outcomes required to analyse and repair performance transmissions, final drive and drivelines, including engine to transmission drive couplings. It involves identifying, evaluating, selecting, justifying, documenting and carrying out the most appropriate rectification method or variation. The unit includes the analysis of multi-system and intermittent faults which may be caused by operating in adverse conditions.

It applies to those working in the motor sport industry.

No licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.

You may want to include more information here about the target group and the purpose of the assessments (eg formative, summative, recognition)

slipping.

Individuals must be able to demonstrate knowledge of:

work health and safety (WHS) and occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements relating to analysing and repairing faults in performance driveline systems, including procedures for:

working with hot oils

working with rotating driveline components

environmental requirements, including procedures for trapping, storing and disposing of oils released from driveline components

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 performance driveline systems that they have analysed and repaired, e.g. work order.

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

manufacturer specifications for vehicle performance driveline systems

two different competition vehicles with faults in their performance driveline systems

diagnostic equipment for performance driveline systems

tools, equipment and materials appropriate for analysing and repairing performance driveline systems.
