Description
Vehicle Mechanics is a lightweight, standalone vehicle immersion mod for GTA V that adds realistic wear, damage, and roadside assistance to your cars. From fuel consumption and engine fires to rollover chance and tire blowouts, every drive feels more unpredictable and rewarding.
Features:
Fuel Simulation β Per-vehicle fuel levels that drain as you drive, with a customisable HUD bar.
Engine Fire & Smoke β Front-end damage can cause smoking, steam, and eventual engine fires.
Rollover Chance β Hard impacts and collisions can send vehicles rolling.
Tire Bursts β High-speed driving and damage can blow out tires.
Brake Fade β Repeated hard braking reduces effectiveness over time.
Persistent Deformation β Vehicle damage stays with the car across sessions.
Battery Failure, Oil Leaks, Radiator Leaks & Transmission Damage β Extra mechanical failures for long-term wear.
Windshield Cracking & Headlight Breakage β Visual damage from impacts.
Roadside Assistance β Call a mechanic who arrives in a van, repairs your vehicle, then drives away.
Fully Configurable β Toggle features, adjust chances, and set keybinds via VehicleMechanics.ini.
Standalone β No LSPDFR or RAGE Plugin Hook required. Works with GTA V Legacy and Enhanced using ScriptHookV and ScriptHookVDotNet 3.
Default Controls:
F3 β Open the Vehicle Mechanics menu
F7 β Reload the INI file in-game
B β Toggle seatbelt (when enabled)
All controls and features can be customised through VehicleMechanics.ini, including fuel drain rate, damage thresholds, fire chance, notification toggles, and HUD position.
Notes:
Refuel feature is currently in development.
Press Insert in-game to reload scripts and INI changes without restarting GTA V.
Remove any old VehicleMechanics.dll, VehicleMechanics.ini, and VehicleMechanics.log from your scripts folder before installing.
Any issues, donβt hesitate to reach out to me. Iβll be setting up a Discord server soon for live updates on this mod and future mods.
