Clears up the board, admins do as you wish, just trying to help.

Last week mine passed. 12.12.2014 1 advisory regarding handbrake.

 

If anyone has any mot questions then feel free to ask me, been doing them for 8 years so hopefully I'll be able to answer any sensible questions.

 

Mine passed the other week the main dealer was gutted when he had to come out and tell me it had passed without one single advisory not bad for a 99 car.

 

Amazing cars eh? Mine has had a single rusty brake pipe in all those years

2001. DD

 

How stupid did I feel when I opened the thread and realised it's not about mots at all........

 

Just a quick heads up for those with an older car. We had one in today at the sat club to prep for an MOT, now we knew we had to do one rear brake pipe as this was an advise from last year (which the owner chose to ignore till this years test was due ) anyway we did this which was the rear pipe along the side of the subframe a common pipe to need replacing on the S2000, So pipe done bleed brakes then the pedal started to creep a quick check around revealed a brake pipe had bust under the plastic shield near to the brake compensator, you could not see the area of corrosion with the cover in place and it would have passed an MOT had it not burst, once the cover was removed it was plain to see where the trouble was, so over the next few weeks i will be removing mine to check the pipes where it sits in the plastic clips,

 

Thanks for the heads up.

 

I best get mine checked then, good call Dave

 

Mine was also in the same shape as above and the section hidden by the rear subframe.

 

Yours will be ok for another 27 yrs now.
