MOT day; place your bets! - ginge191 - 19-02-2014
'Rocky' the. '6 is in for his MOT today, I've been in possession of the car for about 2 weeks with a previous owner who did sweet FA to it; no maintenee, no cleaning, nothing!
Place your bets!

RE: MOT day; place your bets! - ginge191 - 19-02-2014
Not a bad call; I checked the numbers late bulbs though! Both working....occasionally

Fail because it's a ph2 Diablo and therefore will fall apart on the ramp?

RE: MOT day; place your bets! - John1.4 - 19-02-2014

So picked it up today; failed as expected.. a fair few real PICKY bits..
offside headlamp levelling inoperative
offside headlamp aim too low
N/s front indicator wrong colour
N/s rear indicator wrong colour
O/s rear indicator wrong colour
n/s front brake binding
o/s front brake binding
o/s rear brake binding
Now the "incorrect colour" indicators stumbled me somewhat; front is a given; only bulb i had when changing lights
the rears; they are orange but faint i suppose? so bough some new, and i can barely tell the difference; bit picky
binding brakes; literally had brand new pads and discs and think it needs some more miles to bed them?
headlamp i'll pop it open and find what the issue is.
Any more advice on binding brakes would be awesome

clean+grease guides and slides
buy a box of orange lamps for the indicators
job done cheap MOT

the bars should slide in and out of the caliper nice and free
gently remove the rubber and the bar should pull out
clean it up nice, and the tube it slides in, apply some grease and reasemble

Just to add use silicone grease on the sliders.
