50 euros here.

Don't be to harsh on the poor MOT mechanic, they too are controlled by other people.

I used to do these inspections and if they decide to check your work and the car has a problem you've 'overlooked' they can now suspend your lisence.

So you get a nice pay-cut from your boss since you are not able to preform MOT inspections...

Hi... :D


They could not get a reading from the exhaust with the Bosch machine, they revved the engine up for over 20 times and only when they red lined it they got a reading but even that was extremely low.


Um...you let them RED LINE your truck???? :shock:

Not a flash idea. I would red line THEM if they did that to MY truck :dizzy:

Hi

2000 rpm would be putting max airflow out the tail pipe. I would litterally kick them in the arse if they did that to my car. I wouldn't let the testers here put the park brake on whilst on the rolling road either even though they said they have to. I told them if Land ROver say it shouldn't be done then it won't be done. It is a PARK BRAKE not a hand brake. :grim:

Anyhoo, I found another place that knows about cars instead of Ipods :frankie:
