I just received advisories for both front wheel bearings on my s204 at the MOT. Due to some outer edge tyre wear, I had checked the end float on the n/s wheel bearing a month or so ago prior to taking the car for a 4 wheel alignment (where it didn't need adjusting, advised to increase front...

Has anyone else seen this? Basically, while your car is on the ramp they email a video of any defects, however minor. (in my case, some slight damage to the inside tyre wall). Quite impressed to be honest, something I wasn't expecting.
