whats the maximum brake imbalence aloud to pass an mot? mine failed at 32% but since then ive changed the hoses and bled the complete system so hopefully it comes down quite a bit

some years ago i think it was 15% front and 25% rear. My tester gives a bit of leeway, (especially on on a rainy day) as he knows about the vagaries of vauxhall drum brakes.
pads might be sticking or the piston in the caliper.same goes for shoes and wheel cyls.take it all out, clean it up and copper slip any part that needs to move.
