Mot in the morning

Disco goes for its 2nd mot under my ownership.

Spend a couple ( 2 grand ) of quid on new brakes and suspension last year so it should be good.

Have a steering column to change and a brake flex pipe, a cv rubber to inspect and it will be good for the test.
I'm feeling confident. Laughing

Getting the garage to fit the new parts before they mot it.
They got the joy of fitting the replacement propshaft a few weeks ago.. Rolling with laughter

It will be fine. Only concern is the headlights have the sticking high beam issue at times. Rolling Eyes

Mine went in yesterday for its 4th time and passed again Very Happy. I fixed the SRS airbag myself which I was chuffed about and only had two advisories for front tyres which I knew about.

Good luck Thumbs Up

Good luck,

I am sure it will be fine with the amount of time DM has spent on it.

Worst of the canal treatment is over, just getting a final once over and a cap put on it.
Had the root and infection drilled out a few weeks ago and the nerves removed.
Sounds worse than it is.

Yeah, DM has put an hour or 2 into it.. Whistle Whistle
Which he loved, i'm 100% sure on that. Mr. Green Rolling with laughter

Passed!

One advisory for a drop link, which is strange as all 4 were replaced last year prior to last years mot and all are genuine LR parts.

Ah well. Will change it out and be done with it.
