I just had my first expertise today. Nothing technical came up with the car, but it failed due to the winter wheels being on the car apparently not matching the car specification. I bought the car from a main dealer and these wheels came with it, so I had no idea that anything was missing, and I wasn’t given any extra paperwork when I bought the car. The mechanic doing the inspection said I had to get some paperwork to show the wheels were certified for my car and that I could send this, the registration document, and the test report back to the cantonal office and that it would all be fine. I went to the garage who do my tyres and he gave me what I think is the TUV certificate that the wheels have been tested for my car, but to my understanding this is not enough to satisfy the authority here. Is this the case? I see that I can pay for a Swiss certification for the wheels as well, but wasn’t sure what I actually need to provide in this case, and whether I then need to do anything else after getting this paperwork and sending it off. Any insight would be really helpful! UPDATE: TÜV paperwork was accepted and I just had to pay the modification charge, thanks for the advice all! submitted by /u/ninja-kettle
