update on mot work on my t2, welded inner cill and also cut out rear seat belt mounts, it did'nt fail on these, but as they do rust bad, i thought while it stripped out might as well weld them, and a small plate on inner wheel arch.
track rod end and front link arms to do, then the cv gaitor, got a stick on one.
getting there slowly. hopefully in for test next week.

Good luck

Mines just gone through yesterday. Failed on a track rod end which I thought was a bit wobbly but they decided was too wobbly.

Last time i got the tracking done I saw the hassle the fitter had even with heat. As I havent got access at home to heat or tracking gear theyre fixing it all up at a sensible price and I'm picking it up in an hour or so

Cant wait to see the emmision figures running on vege oil with hiclones & k&n

I would be interested to know how you get on with the emission levels too, I have heard that the CO can be a little higher with non-hydrocarbon fuels, so be interesting to see.

Mine went through last week but not sure about emmisions, all mine needed was a front shocker lower bushg but as most will know you need the whole shocker. However I knew the sills needs a dose of looking at a couple of months ago so I had both sides done inner and outer, last year I had rear seat belt mounts done too. So I'm hoping with a little TLC mine should be OK for a few years longer now.

Looking at the sheet, the average smoke reading is 1.15 , the limit is 3

Its a pass and I'm happy
