Should be ok, hope the oil leaking (smoke) from the cam covers dosn't colour the testers view.

First test of the day so hopefully he didn't get out of bed the wrong side  ::)

Hi,

Its a fail, but I'm not in the least bit bothered as it was only a headlight adjustment and probably my fault as I'd swapped it for a "better one" it and probably screwed the adjuster in the process.

The tester said the car was in excellent condition and it was obvious that it had a lot of recent work done. The emissions readings were also very low.

So, I'll get the headlight sorted & I'll be an even happier bunny.

TTFN

'screwed the adjuster' as in broke it? Or screwed the adjuster to much/not enough? 'My' MOT tester would have correctly adjusted it as he tested the car.  :-?

dunno - will take a look later & see whats what.

I guess there is a separate aujuster from the ones that the levelling motors operate?

Am not getting any error messages from the xenon system - although did when I forgot to plug the motor in.

Must do some work now  :(
