ktm jeff Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 I believe the annual inspection cost , for insurance purposes , is 1,500 baht. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DGS1244 Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 It should be tested hydraulically otherwise the test is meanless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deckard Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 As a general rule CNG systems should be tested every 6 months . I notice some garages in Pattaya have a sign up saying words to the effect that you should have a certificate every 6 months otherwise they won't fill the tank . I've not been asked for one so far but my car is relatively new and was fitted by the Honda factory and the 6 month service covers a CNG test .

A full hydraulic test is only required every five years, what they mean is a visual check to ensure there is no external damage and the valves are working correctly.

Not sure were you see this but you need to get ispection just before your tax sticker expires. They will not give you your new tax sticker unless you have CNG inspection. New Honda is at 3 years then every year after that. We have a 2012 city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gawaterman Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Why is it that often, from memory only every 10 yrs in Australia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bazza40 Posted March 30, 2015 Author Share Posted March 30, 2015 LPG only requires inspection every 10 years because the tank is only rated to 25 psi. CNG tanks are rated to 250 psi, hence more frequent testing. I had an inspection today for 500 baht, paperwork all supplied. Thought it was fairly meaningless, a half-hearted tug at the straps anchoring the tank. Sniffed around with a tester front and back. Did tell them the tank was empty, but that didn't seem to worry them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lj cm Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 I had not idea about "official" inspection of CNG and LPG tanks; but I bring my system (LPG) for inspection, at the company that installed it, according to the service book, they gave me. It takes 5 minutes and I agree with 'bazza40', that it's a very superficial check. At the yearly inspection of my 10+ year old car, they never seem interested in the LPG system.

We had to do it this year but not last year. Called around to about 4 or 5 different places and they were all 1500. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
