What an assessment for AURMTD002 must cover

42 assessable components: 6 elements (28 performance criteria), 1 performance evidence and 5 knowledge evidence requirements, plus 8 foundation skills. An audit-defensible tool maps every question and task back to these — that mapping is the coverage matrix Auditori generates alongside the assessment.

Elements & performance criteria

1 Determine competition vehicle suspension requirements

  • 2.5Existing suspension settings are measured and documented prior to component removal or adjustment according to workplace procedures
  • 2.6Problems with work area or operation of the equipment are reported to appropriate personnel as required

3 Dismantle, modify and assemble non-sealed dampers

  • 3.1Damper removal, testing and dismantling procedures are sourced and interpreted
  • 3.2Dampers are tested, dismantled, cleaned, inspected and measured for wear, and tolerances are determined according to manufacturer specifications and safety and environmental requirements
  • 3.3Dampers are replaced, repaired or modified as required according to manufacturer specifications, safety requirements and team procedures
  • 3.4Dampers are prepared and tested according to manufacturer specifications and procedures, and safety requirements

4 Dismantle, replace or change springs

  • 4.1Methods for removing and dismantling springs according to manufacturer specifications are sourced and interpreted
  • 4.2Spring dimensions are measured and documented before dismantling
  • 4.3Springs are disassembled and cleaned, and rates and tolerances are checked according to manufacturer specifications, workplace procedures and safety requirements
  • 4.4Retention, replacement, adjustment or service of components is made according to team procedures
  • 4.5Replacement springs are checked as required for rate and wear according to manufacturer specifications, workplace procedures and safety requirements

5 Configure suspension components and settings

  • 5.1Removed suspension components are inspected for quality and readiness for installation
  • 5.2Sub-assemblies and fasteners are installed and tensioned in correct sequence according to manufacturer specifications, workplace procedures and safety requirements
  • 5.3Associated components, sub-assemblies and structural elements of vehicle affecting suspension configuration are checked for serviceability as required and according to manufacturer specifications, workplace procedures and safety requirements
  • 5.4Suspension components and settings are adjusted and configured within tolerances according to manufacturer specifications, workplace procedures and safety requirements
  • 5.5Suspension settings are documented and problems with vehicle sub-assemblies are reported to appropriate personnel according to workplace procedures

6 Complete work processes

  • 6.1Tools and equipment are checked and stored according to team procedures
  • 6.2Work area is cleaned, waste and non-recyclable materials are disposed of, and recyclable material is collected
  • 6.3Surplus material and components are checked and stored according to workplace requirements and problems are reported to appropriate personnel as required
  • 6.4Workplace documentation is processed according to team requirements

Performance evidence

  • prepare the suspensions of two different competition vehicles.

Knowledge evidence

  • work health and safety (WHS) and occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements relating to preparing competition vehicle suspension, including procedures for: selecting and using personal protective equipment (PPE) managing stored energy in springs
  • environmental requirements, including procedures for trapping, storing and disposing of fluids released from dampers
  • function, configurations, application and limitations of competition vehicle suspension systems
  • suspension system dismantling and testing procedures, including: suspension setting measurement procedures and calculations; on-vehicle damper and spring assembly testing procedures; damper and spring assembly removal and replacement procedures; damper bench-testing, dismantling, inspection, measurement and evaluation procedures; spring assembly off-vehicle testing, dismantling, inspection, measurement and evaluation procedures
  • suspension system assembly and adjustment procedures, including: damper oil refilling, bleeding and re-gassing procedures; spring assembly reassembly procedures; suspension setting adjustment and configuration procedures.

Foundation skills

  • Learning skills: locate appropriate sources of information efficiently.
  • Reading skills: interpret controlling body rules, category rules and supplementary regulations; interpret information from manufacturer and workshop manuals when seeking suspension system specifications and procedures.
  • Writing skills: legibly and accurately fill out workplace documentation when reporting component requirements and recording parts and material used.
  • Numeracy skills: measure suspension system components and use mathematical basic mathematical operations including addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, to calculate distances, areas, volumes, tolerances and deviations from manufacturer specifications.
  • Planning and organising skills: plan own work requirements and prioritise actions to achieve required outcomes and ensure tasks are completed within workplace timeframes.
  • Problem solving skills: determine component settings to produce a competitive advantage while complying with rules and regulations.
  • Teamwork skills: work as part of a team to ensure vehicle is prepared and maintained and time wastage is minimised.
  • Technology skills: operate specialised suspension system testing equipment.

Questions about assessing AURMTD002

What does an assessment tool for AURMTD002 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for AURMTD002 needs to address all 42 unit components: 6 elements with 28 performance criteria, 1 performance evidence requirements, 5 knowledge evidence requirements, and the foundation skills. A coverage matrix mapping each question and task to these components is what an auditor looks for.

How does Auditori generate an assessment tool for AURMTD002?

Auditori pulls the current release of AURMTD002 from training.gov.au and generates a complete package: candidate assessment, assessor guide with model answers and observation criteria, and a coverage matrix mapping every component. A suitably qualified person then reviews and approves the draft in a built-in workflow — consistent with ASQA's guidance on AI use in VET — before export as branded PDF and editable Word.

Is the first assessment tool really free?

Yes. Every new account includes one free credit — enough to generate the complete assessment tool for AURMTD002 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing AURMTD002 assessment instead of generating a new one?

Yes — upload your existing assessment or learner guide and Auditori maps it against every element, performance criterion, PE and KE of AURMTD002, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
