German term or phrase: Einbauuntersuchung / Einbauprobe / Einbauprüfung
Ich bin schon so oft über den Begriff (unterschiedliche Bezeichnungen) gestolpert.

In meinem vorliegenden Text (Konstruktions-FMEA Automobil) lautet der Kontext:
Montage/Montagesicherheit
Konstruktionsbestätigung: Toleranz- und Einbauuntersuchungen, Zeichnungsüberprüfung

Für Einbauprobe lautet die Definition:
[QS 9000] Einbauprobe bedeutet eine Designprüfung mit Einbau von maßlich korrekten Teilen aus Serienwerkzeugen, um sicherzustellen, daß die Teile zusammenpassen und für den Zusammenbau von Montageeinheiten und Fahrzeugen nach den Designspezifikationen und –Absichten verwendet werden können. (http://www.total-quality.info/, 20.12.04)

Nur - leider - was wird da auf Englisch verwendet? -> tolerance and fitting examination?

assembly trial
Explanation:
This is a term I am familiar with from new product introduction routines, but I'd say with very high certainty that any two companies will have two different terms for the same thing in English.
So, helpful as it may be, here's Johnson Controls' take on it. They have "parts fitting" and "assembly trials" as elements of an overall "pilot production trial".

"Parts fitting" seems to fit better in my context, where "assembly trials" are "Montageversuche".
Thanks a lot. All the "installation" thing did not convince me, as we are not talking about an "installation" here - IMHO.
