Mot Test
Просмотров 86 тыс.4 года назад
I will go through the process & checks that are carried out during a Mot test. You will see how vital these checks are for your safety & others safety. Most people are unaware of most faults that would be picked up during an mot test so be safe & make sure your car has a current Mot test certificate.

    running that engine for nearly an hour is a bit excessive.ive had to wire my rad fan up to the heated rear screen circuit as theres a fault with the fan coming on automatic so i have to inform the tester of that fact to prevent an over heated engine 🔥

    great informative video! I am a Dutch mechanic and MOT (APK) tester aswell, and i was wondering how an english MOT is performed. The pre inspection check, is that mandatory? In the netherlands once I (or other MOT testers) pass or fail a car, there is a possibility that the road safety institute will come and check the car over. basically seeing if i did my job correctly. i was wondering if that's also the case in the UK?

      I noted the following… didn’t check the security of the lights. Didn’t check the seats properly for security. It does have power steering which he stated it doesn’t. Also said it has a ford sigma engine, it doesn’t! He jacked the car up whilst the engine was running, and let it run throughout the test. I would have failed you.

    Why did you leave the engine running for the whole test? Also I'm not sure the front steering and suspension needs to be tested so many times. The tests you did were adequate, you didn't need to re-do them again and again by different methods. Likewise how many times do you need to check the doors open and close!

    How very interesting to watch modern test with all the emission/computer/automation/on line systems. I can compare to many [50] years ago when it was much more pencil & paper. [+ a test result sheet that looked like a proper CERTIFICATE].

    Noticed you bypassed the engine speed measurement.on immisions test . should have.said you had the option to by pass.which the program on the screen gives you the option.As you probably no the inspector will be observing that you are paying attention to the on screen instructions.as you said at the begining of your video you are not authorised yet.just a small tip .as a tester of 30 years.your doing a good job.

    My car failed an MOT a few years ago on a leaky shock, and bad discs no big deal, garage offered to repair for £180 the same day, but I always use my local mechanic, so I refused. On my way down the road I was pulled by police and VOSA, they watched me leave the garage and wanted to check the report, so I agreed to go to a different MOT garage for VOSA to check the car against the MOT. My car went onto get a pass from the VOSA guys with no advisories. Clearly the garage was a conman, not sure what action was taken against him as I never went back there again.

    Hi Mark, I had my demonstration a couple of days ago. Passed with just a couple of minors. I just wanted to thank you for your invaluable routine video. I couldn't have done it without you dude. Clear and consise demonstration. And still the only full and current rutine on RUclips. BTW, the minors where, not checking the rear number plate lights (which I disputed) and lock to lock while on turnplates. Thanks again. Peter
