MOT Pass

Graham E · 31st May 2016, 11:49

Well I was surprised that it passed as I thought it would have needed some jobs doing but hey ho

Two advisories of Slight play in O/S track rod and handbrake has little reserve travel

Well pleased as I thought it would fail on the rear engine mount (which apparently has gone but can't be failed as it won't fall out) so have ordered another to replace it anyway.

The handbrake which it passed on but I'm fitting the compensator anyway

Exhaust blowing as it sounds a bit throaty but there is no evidence of any blowing

And the air bag light which he passed it on as when we moved the seat the light went out and stayed out before it came back on again when I drove home.

So jobs this week is to fit the handbrake compensator mod thanks to Artic
Fit a new air bag sensor as I've had a water puddle in the passenger side.

Replace the rear engine mounting

Wash & polish

HI Graham
Good news then at least you can do the afore mentioned at you own leisure now, seat belt light will be a loose connection, I am currently putting together some different connectors for this problem

we have used them before at the nano meets Arctic.

Yes air bag light is annoying.

I thought it would be the sensor under the carpets due to a water leak which I traced to blocked sunroof drains.

But when I moved the passenger seat the light went out until someone sat in the seat

So it could be the wiring but as the seat needs to come out to sort handbrake I left it to do it all in one go.

Forgot to mention I also have the EGR bypass valve to fit
