ADAS Calibration

Sunshine Coast ADAS Calibration

Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS)

Modern vehicles are equipped with Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) to improve safety and assist drivers on the road. These systems use cameras, radar sensors and other electronic components to monitor the vehicle’s surroundings and support features such as:

For these safety features to operate correctly, every camera and radar sensor must be accurately aligned to the manufacturer’s specifications. Even a small change to the vehicle can affect their accuracy.

When Does My Vehicle Need an ADAS Calibration?

An ADAS calibration is recommended whenever a repair or modification may alter the position of a camera, radar sensor or the vehicle’s geometry.

Common reasons include:

Even a low-speed impact or parking incident can be enough to move a sensor out of alignment.

Why Is ADAS Calibration Important?

ADAS systems make split-second decisions based on the information received from cameras and radar sensors. If these sensors are even slightly misaligned, the vehicle may:

  • Display warning messages
  • Disable safety features
  • Detect objects incorrectly
  • Brake too early or too late
  • Fail to recognise lane markings or nearby vehicles

Proper calibration ensures these systems continue to operate safely and as the manufacturer intended.

How We Perform ADAS Calibration

At Harmac Automotive, we have invested in the latest state-of-the-art ADAS calibration equipment.

Our technicians follow manufacturer-approved calibration procedures using specialised targets, laser measurement equipment and advanced diagnostic software. Depending on the vehicle, calibration may involve:

  • Static Calibration – Performed inside the workshop using precision alignment equipment and calibration targets positioned at exact measurements.
  • Dynamic Calibration – Completed during a controlled road test where the vehicle calibrates its cameras and sensors while driving under specific conditions.
  • Combined Calibration – Some manufacturers require both static and dynamic procedures to achieve a complete calibration.

Once the calibration is complete, we verify that all ADAS systems are communicating correctly and operating within manufacturer specifications.

Why Choose Harmac Automotive?

Our qualified technicians combine advanced diagnostic expertise with the latest ADAS calibration technology to ensure your vehicle’s safety systems are restored correctly after repairs.

Whether you’ve had a windscreen replaced, suspension repaired, a wheel alignment performed or your vehicle has been involved in an accident, we can accurately calibrate your ADAS system and provide confidence that your vehicle’s safety features are functioning as intended.
