DAMM just realised my MOT expired over a month ago......

Its never happened to me i can only blame it on my recent house purchase and havnt payed any attention to anything else.

Cor MOT time is like visiting a dentist, i really hope it passes first time otherwise ill be in trouble..... last thing i need right now is pricey mot time like it normally is with every car i own!

seems like there is an mot rush on
and most are gettin through fine

No one has failed yet, that I know of anyways.

i have, failed on recording little or no effort on n/s parking brake

how can i fix this?

also i parked on a massive hill straight after i failed and my car didnt move 1 bit, think it was a picky MOT tester

mine failed on 6% needed new discs pads and repair a seized caliper to fix it but thats just mine.

I said this with mine too - I have a steep drive and the handbrake was always fine on it.

will hold if one is working but you new two working correctly to pass an mot. one would not stop you if your foot brake failed.

That brings back bad memories, last year my car failed on breaking system and all 4 disk, calipers + hoses later it passed (wont tell ya how much it cost me )

What do i need then? a new caliper? and how much do they cost? can matt brown sort me out?

Struggle to find decent 2nd hand calipers, pistons sieze and bleed nipples round off.
Best bet would be GSF, about £70 a side.
