Came back for a retest after saying our price for changing the cv boot as too high

Would like to see this last another year on 4-2-2 testing!

a nicely fitted CV boot (comes with a spare cable tie incase the metal band corrodes through)     :shock:&:?

is it not fouling already??…:?:(

Sorry, didn’t make it very clear.

The cable tie is now holding on the caliper that the bloke broken off-FAIL
The hose has worn right through the cords-FAIL

[optional]

Dont ya just love it when that happens, probably some bone head down the local boozer who volunteered himself for the job, announcing to everyone in shouting distance how he works on cars in his spare time and all garages are rip off merchants.

A cable tie holding the caliper on…ffs!

The things some ***** will do. Do they think we wont check on these “repairs” 😯

the sad part is some of us dont,have seen similar where some eedjit has just written a ticket out without noticing brake leaks/wrong size tyres/molegrips/missing wheelnuts-the list just goes on.

Thanks for the photos- another quality repair!!
Never ceases to amaze me on the short cuts- it probably took him longer to do the bodge job that the actual repair would have taken

Going back to what Rob was saying about repairs, he reminded me of a Ford Focus I failed for a seized brake control valve lever before VOSA brought into the test the actual function of the valve itself.

I advised that the brake pipes had both corrosion and grease on them, thus the inspection was not perfect (Visual Learning David;)) however when the customer brought the car back for a retest one of the brake pipes burst during the roller brake test.

This is the point;

A tester who works at our other MOT Site (Liverpool) said to me that I should have passed and advised the brake pipe burst because it was during the retest that it burst:shock:

I advised as nicely as I could that if during a retest the NT notices a defect that in his opinion should prevent the issue of a VT20, the vehicle MUST be issued with a VT30 for the additional mot fail item(s). He did not reply to that.
