Home / Automotive – Mechanical & Electrical / Certificate IV in Automotive Mechanical Overhauling – AUR40820
There’s a real difference between replacing a part and rebuilding it to factory spec — and AUR40820 is the qualification for people who do the latter. If that’s your specialty, we can help formalise it through RPL, with assessment carried out by one of our partnered training organisations.
This qualification is for the specialist work of overhauling automotive mechanical components — dismantling parts down to their individual pieces, measuring for wear, machining where needed, and rebuilding to original manufacturer specification. It’s a step beyond general repair, which usually just means replacing components.
Entry requires completion of an automotive mechanical Certificate III, or demonstrated equivalent competency. RPL is well suited to mechanics with genuine overhauling experience — engine or transmission rebuilders, for example — and we help document that experience for assessment by one of our partnered RTOs.
Certificate IV in Automotive Mechanical Overhauling reflects the skills and experience of an individual working in the automotive service, repair and retail industry, performing advanced troubleshooting and repair tasks.
You will need to provide a range of evidence to assist your assessor to make a decision about your competence. The types of evidence you may be asked to provide can include

Percentage of graduates of this course who started/expanded a business or who have a new job, more highly skilled work, a promotion or higher pay.
The middle of the range of salaries earned by graduates of this course starting their first ever full-time job after graduating.
Dismantling, measuring, machining and rebuilding automotive mechanical components to original manufacturer specifications.
Trade-qualified mechanics specialising in engine, transmission or component overhauling and rebuilding.
Completion of an automotive mechanical Certificate III, or demonstrated equivalent competency.
Specialist overhaul technician roles in engine reconditioning, transmission rebuilding, and performance workshops.
Yes, if you can demonstrate genuine overhaul and rebuild experience, not just general repair work.
Detailed job records showing dismantling, measuring and rebuild work, machining records, and employer references.
Because it’s specifically about rebuilding to original specification, so your evidence needs to clearly show that depth of work, not just parts replacement.
