MOT Question
« on: 10 July 2011, 18:40:59 »
Are headlight washers working OK part of an MOT?

Having the car tested tomorrow and have noticed that one of them isn't working.

Thanks - Rob

'My' MOT tester has never commented on mine not working for the past few years  ::) ::) ::) I'm not sure he's ever looked to see if they do or don't wash.

Thought that this might help - its the MOT Testers bible! This is how they are trained to do the test and as it is constantly updated they refer to it often if they are in doubt. Its also handy if you want to argue a point with them although they do not like it when you do!

Nice one Rob, pity I didn't have the same result.  Mine went in today and failed on emissions.

Where do you get yours done out of interest, as I haven't somewhere I would consider particularly decent in Lincoln yet?
