ADAS Calibration | Advanced Driver Assistance System

ADAS Calibration is an essential process for maintaining the precision and reliability of advanced driver-assistance systems in vehicles. Key to safety, it adjusts sensors, cameras, and radar to align with original equipment manufacturer (OEM) standards. Calibration is critical after events like windshield replacements or collisions to prevent sensor misalignment and malfunction.

Importance of ADAS Calibration

Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) serve as the cornerstone of modern vehicular safety, making their precise calibration essential. ADAS calibration is critical to guarantee that the intricate network of sensors and cameras functions at peak performance.

Accurate alignment of sensors and cameras is necessary for the reliable operation of features such as lane departure warnings, adaptive cruise control, and automatic emergency braking. Without precise calibration, there is a risk of these systems malfunctioning, potentially leading to hazardous situations on the road.

When Do I Need ADAS Calibration?

ADAS calibration is imperative after any repair or replacement involving the vehicle's sensors. Calibration requirements are triggered by events such as:

Windshield replacement
Collision repair
Suspension modifications
Any work that might affect sensor positioning

Common Calibration Methods

Static calibration involves the use of specialised calibration equipment to adjust the ADAS system within a controlled environment. Technicians utilise this method to assure precision calibration, particularly for radars and lidar sensors.

Dynamic calibration complements static calibration by evaluating the vehicle's response to real-world conditions. In dynamic calibration, technicians drive the vehicle at specified speeds, allowing the ADAS system to self-calibrate through sensor data processing.

Signs You Need Calibration

Warning lights or error messages on the dashboard related to ADAS
Inaccurate or erratic behaviour from the ADAS systems
Forward collision warning activating without obstacles
Lane departure warning malfunctioning

Benefits of Regular ADAS Calibration

Enhanced Safety: Reduces the risk of accidents by providing accurate data and timely interventions.
Effective Performance: Maintains designed performance levels for responsiveness and reliability.
Cost Efficiency: Prevents costly repairs by identifying and correcting deviations early.
Regulatory Compliance: Maintains compliance with safety regulations and standards.

ADAS Calibration Services in Sydney

Modern vehicles are equipped with Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) that rely on cameras and sensors mounted to your windscreen. After windscreen replacement, these systems require precise recalibration to function correctly and keep you safe.

What Is ADAS?

ADAS encompasses a range of safety features that assist drivers and help prevent accidents:

Lane Departure Warning: Alerts you when drifting out of your lane
Lane Keep Assist: Actively steers to keep you in lane
Forward Collision Warning: Warns of potential frontal impacts
Automatic Emergency Braking: Applies brakes to prevent collisions
Adaptive Cruise Control: Maintains safe following distance
Traffic Sign Recognition: Identifies and displays speed limits
Pedestrian Detection: Recognises pedestrians in your path

These features rely on cameras typically mounted behind the rear-view mirror and sensors positioned around the vehicle.

Why Calibration Is Essential

When your windscreen is replaced, the forward-facing camera is removed and refitted. Even a tiny misalignment can cause significant problems:

Incorrect warnings: False alarms or missed hazards
System failures: Features may stop working entirely
Warning lights: Dashboard alerts that do not clear
Safety risks: Systems may react incorrectly in emergencies

Proper calibration ensures your ADAS features work exactly as the manufacturer intended.

Types of ADAS Calibration

Static Calibration: Performed in a controlled environment using targets positioned at precise distances from the vehicle. Required for most camera-based systems.

Dynamic Calibration: Completed by driving the vehicle on suitable roads while onboard systems recalibrate. Some vehicles require this in addition to static calibration.

Most vehicles require static calibration, which we perform using manufacturer-specified equipment and procedures.

Our Calibration Process

Pre-scan: We connect to your vehicle’s diagnostic systems to identify ADAS features and calibration requirements
Preparation: The vehicle is positioned on a level surface with correct tyre pressures and fuel level
Target setup: Calibration targets are positioned at exact distances and heights specified by your vehicle manufacturer
Calibration: Using specialist equipment, we initiate the calibration procedure for each ADAS feature
Verification: Post-calibration scans confirm successful completion and clear any fault codes
Documentation: We provide a calibration report for your records

Vehicles We Calibrate

We calibrate ADAS systems on most modern vehicles:

Toyota Safety Sense
Mazda i-ACTIVSENSE
Honda Sensing
Hyundai SmartSense
Subaru EyeSight
Ford Co-Pilot360
Volkswagen and Audi systems
BMW and Mercedes systems
And many more

If your vehicle has ADAS features, it likely needs calibration after windscreen replacement.

When Is Calibration Required?

ADAS calibration is essential after:

Windscreen replacement
Camera or sensor replacement
Front-end collision repair
Wheel alignment changes
Suspension modifications

Some systems also require recalibration after battery disconnection or software updates.

Combined Service

We offer ADAS calibration as part of our windscreen replacement service. When you book a replacement with us, we can complete the calibration immediately afterwards, saving you time and ensuring everything is done correctly.

Do Not Skip Calibration

Some windscreen services do not offer calibration, leaving your safety systems potentially compromised. Warning lights might not appear immediately, but incorrect calibration can have serious consequences:

Emergency braking may not activate when needed
Lane keeping may steer you in the wrong direction
Collision warnings may come too late

Always ensure ADAS calibration is included when replacing a windscreen on a modern vehicle.

Expert Service

Our technicians are trained in ADAS calibration procedures and use up-to-date equipment that meets manufacturer specifications. We stay current with new vehicle models and calibration requirements as they are released.
