ADAS calibration

ADAS Calibration, done right

Lane-keep assist, automatic braking, adaptive cruise — all rely on cameras and radar that need recalibration after windshield replacement, suspension work, or any accident. Skipping it is a real safety risk.

Why ADAS calibration matters

Cameras drift millimetres

1-3 mm camera misalignment can mean a 1-2 metre lane-keep error at 100 km/h. ADAS isn't optional safety — it has to be precise.

Required for many repairs

Most manufacturers REQUIRE ADAS calibration after windshield replacement, suspension work, alignment, or front-end accident repair. Skipping voids warranty.

Static + dynamic calibration

Static: targets in a calibrated bay. Dynamic: road test under specific conditions. Most cars need both. We list shops with the right targets and equipment.

Frequently asked questions

Which cars need ADAS calibration?

Most cars from 2018 onwards have at least one ADAS feature. Lane-keep, automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise, blind-spot monitor — all need recalibration after certain repairs.

When do I need it?

After windshield replacement, after suspension work, after alignment, after any accident that affects the front of the car or sensor mounts. If a warning light is on for any ADAS feature.

What does it cost?

Static calibration: $150-300. Dynamic calibration: $100-250. Combined: $250-500 typically. Some manufacturers (BMW, Mercedes) cost more due to specialised targets.

Why is calibration NOT just included in the windshield replacement?

Many cheap windshield replacements skip it (or charge extra later). Insurance often pays for both. Always ask: 'Will you do ADAS calibration as part of the job?' before booking.
