    Default Mot time

    Just dropped the GTE off for MOT ad I've just remembered that I forgot to change the rear wiper blade beacuse it was split.

    I was going to say, lets hope it passes but I'm pretty sure thats a fail!

    Nevermind, I will let you know the outcome.

    That is all.

    It failed on a hole in the sill and a cv boot. It also got a couple of advisories, both rear wheel bearings slight play and a bald shoulder on one of my tyres.

    Not too bad, I will get it sorted tommorow at work.

    Just to confirm that ben was spot on about the rear wiper

    Quite simple really, I didn't check the alignment before I fitted it unfortunately. Well you live and learn.
