Hi Jim, thank you for your advice. Yes, you are right. I feel Terrano is having some issues here and there including battery, a potential problem with brake, also haven't sorted old issue with ABS, welding for corrosion - I was thinking if I have to sort these out, let it go through MOT, but...

Sugru?

Hi Jim, thank you for your reply. To replace battery, it is just all plug off, then pull out, was it? I was looking at Halfords' website and probably I will do it by myself. Any recommendation? (Basically HSB096 or HB334?) As for brake fluid, not sure if that's the case, but it would need to...

Hello all, just thought I'd post a chat. I've been away from the website a bit and realised that my membership has gone. I paid and came back here again. Good see you all! What happened since.... probably in the beginning or middle of last year was that my work got far busier, kids are growing...

Here are the official information as well as new MOT inspection manual; Guidance - Overview of MOT changes from May 2018 MOT inspection manual for private passenger and light commercial vehicles

Thanks, Rick! Doug, you're right. I did only clean up where I can reach without lifting it up in the last year. It is becoming hard to do this when I'm living in a flat (in the parking area where there isn't much space). So currently I'm thinking maybe I'd get the garage/someone to get it done...

Thank you, John :)

...Recently I'm steps behind from other members, but just read this post. Sorry to hear about this but I praise your courage and I appreciate you what you shared how you are. Hope you are doing good. As my partner used to have depression, I understand how hard things can be. Although it really...

Thank you, yes, that is true. I actually didn't have a thought like this. Universal Tyres Plaistow was ok, it just wasn't too friendly comparing to their closed Greenwich branch. I asked them to get MOT, full service done at this time as I thought it might be a good timing to change...

Forgot to tell you for those who are in London. I was using Universal Tyres Greenwich branch who were very reasonable and there were bunch of friendly people. Sadly for some reason they decided to close this branch. So now I'm bringing my T2 to their Plaistow branch. I would've recommended...

Oh I see, if this is the case then I didn't have to rush MOT now (original schedule was in Dec) - though it is not ideal to do anything during winter time so might not be a bad move....:rolleyes: macabethiel, yes, that would be good to hear any comments from the tester.

Hey all, I have just realised that MOT will change and be more harsh to the diesels. As I was reading the page at .gov for the details, it says; ...."can see smoke of any colour coming from the exhaust" - Does this mean any smoke when you start the engine or when it's idling after the engine...

I've lost my words - last time I was late to post my message, then now I was too late to say anything. But my heart goes to his family and also hope he's having a peaceful time after all battles he has gone through. I haven't met him nor even had a personal chat with him, but I see the strong...

Hey all, a bit late to say but very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you all!:) Also thank you very much for all who supported me to look after my T2...excellent community!:thumbs

Thought it's normal about what Rick said, but there are people like this....I found this

My T2 passed MOT without any advisory!:augie A guy at the garage told me he's impressed how solid its chassis are even though there are rusts here and there. He also asked me about the wings how I did it (where I repaired those holes - so called a botched filling job!:doh) . A funny thing is...

Looks fabulous! Is driver's view higher than Terrano?

Sounds good!... wish you are near from London:rolleyes:
