Re: reallly bad day
at least i hadnt fixed the sump gasket so it p1ssed oil all over his hi vis boiler suit!
today ive looked at the 'problems' he highlighted. and there is nothing wrong with it. ive swung of the steering relay and it didnt move (the bit that he said you could shake with his hand)and i tightened up all the wheel nuts as well
mot at 10 tomorrow. hoping to get away with a partial retest therefore free! but not holding that much hope!

Re: reallly bad day
well it failed, miserably, nothing major, just lots of little jobs. the fail sheet was that long it went onto 2 pages.

funny thing is, it didnt fail on what the vosa guy was saying.
