Failed MOT

[craggsy 91]

Just failed my MOT on handbrake efficiency test. It was at 9% when minimum is 16%......was really nervous whilst they done it, pacing around like an expectant father. Chuffed to bits about it tho even tho I know my handbrake was shit

Unlucky mate!!

I recently passed mine with a few advisories,

Pitted rear disks

misting of oil on rear shocks

discoloured numberplates

and worn rear bushes, not causing excessive movement

Hope you can sort out your handbrake without too much hassle

I had mine done in November went straight through, i was expecting it to fail on something. The tester must have been having o good day.

I thought the handbrake was self adjusting

mine failed on the rear discs, they were really badly corroded on the inner face. i think the rear bushes on mine are gone as there is a really harsh thud from that area when you go over bad road surfaces.

I knew caliper was sticking when i put coilies on, was just hoping it was fine but might as well get em changed then i aint gotta worry about em.

Nerih- i've been driving it for about a month now, still need a wing but as long as its sorted for show season, i'll be happy
