Hi All Just had MOT done on c220 estate(W203) and failed on a few things. Most are sorted just the suspension arms to fit on monday. I have had a sticking handbrake the last 5 or so years. if i pull it up with my feet, the light stays off. This year it stayed on and the rear brakes seem to...

Hi I have a 54 reg e320cdi and it has failed mot on the headlights the mot guy showed me there was no pattern to displacement of the light and was just a mass of light no line of light showing like on the other headlight anyone have any ideas what could be causing this any potential little...

Just had this years MOT done on the E55. Passed with a couple of advisories I knew about. 2 rear tyres close to the legal limit (3mm) front discs and pads need replacement soon. Again, I wondered about the lack of secondary cats and resonator but neither even mentioned:bannana: On...

My E350 was in for its MOT on Tuesday, which it passed. Since then though it's been surging and miss firing particularly when the engine is cold. I realise it could be a coincidence, but is there anything that the MOT could have done to cause this sort of issue? As prior to the test it was fine.

Because of the mods I've carried out on the car and Paul (Grovsie31) saying it will definitely fail I thought it will but to my shock I was told it sailed by the MOT with no issues at all!! Car has Kleemann headers & down pipes so no primary CATs and X piped res! Just two small secondary cats...

Hi All, I've just heard back from my wife and the 124 has failed it's MOT on emissions. She has sent me a photo of the results (attached) and it has failed on the lambda reading. My thought is that the O2 sensor has to be the obvious candidate. What do the more technically astute of you think...

Hi, I was hoping that some budding enthusiasts and general more experienced auto engineers out there might be able to offer some advice or thoughts on a tricky little emissions issue I seem to be having! Having fancied the idea of owning a Mercedes for a number of years (but not having the...

Anyone ever heard of a car failing an MOT because of brakes need cleaning. Daughter car just failed its MOT

I have a E280 estate 5 speed auto, 1995. Took it for service nearly 2 years ago and the local 'specialist' having spent £240 on the car told me it was nearly done! Leaking fuel tank, leaking rear diff, oil leak, neaded welding and petrol tank leak- the last one worried me the most so I parked...

I am about to put a private plate on my car, how do you go about the MOT certificate for the new number plate. I realise about the insurance company, but not sure about the MOT. Many thanks.

Has anyone else had any issues, my C63 went in for its MOT today at MB as I have the service care pack and to be fair it failed miserably on noise emitted, emissions and removal of cats (secondary) I have an IPE manifold with the sports cats present then mated to the remainder of the standard...

Hi folks Checked the W211 out at the weekend as it's due an MOT next month. Few things wrong at the front, upper/lower ball joints, track control arm, and track rod ends (mixture of wobbly joints & burst gators). Went ahead today and replaced the offending parts, upper ball joints, control...

Its my practice to apply for my MOT the 30 days before its due in case there is anything that needs doing. The resultant MOT can then be dated from the expiry date and not the actual MOT date I did this but noted that in spite of the above rule my MOT expired next year on the anniversary of the...
