Good luck on the MOT, I'm sure it'll be fine.

Got mine going in for an MOT on Friday, so know how you're feeling...

the shaking, the nervousness, the throbbing vein on the forehead!!

Ah well, it's all part of the FFRR experience!!

Well I've just picked the loveable rogue up lol and it failed on the offside front suspension arm having excessive play in a ball joint. Booked it into the main dealer as I'm still under warranty. So maybe just maybe it'll be covered. Who knows in one of those right now I don't give a Censored I'll pay it moods.

My cars previous MOT had an advisory for some (but not excessive) play on some ball joint or other. Peculiar thing is, this year, they specifically told me they saw no such play this year? Range Rover, heal thyself! Very Happy Got - 2017 SDV8 Autobiography in Loire Blue

Wow, no wonder we bow down to them.

Also have the following advisory items;
Near side front lower suspension arm has slight play in a ball joint.

Rear brake pads wearing thin. Are brake pads easy to do yourself?

Rear pads dead easy, see my post in the wiki on replacing the calipers and follow the relevant bits.
