MOT

C&N Car Services provides an honest and fair MOT test compared to your local Fast fit companies. We, on the other hand, are an independent garage and strive to maintain the very highest standards of service. Therefore, if you want to visit an MOT test centre with the best equipment and a talented team, you should come to us.

MOT testing requirements can change dramatically over time. Fortunately for you, we work close to the DVLA on any updates and as a result, we help keep your vehicle legal when on the road.

New requirements for 2018

The latest changes to MOT testing come into force from 20th May 2018. The new road worthiness requirements are tougher and could result in more people receiving fail notices. Below is a list of the changes to ensure you are aware of them. New checks include:

  • The reversing lights on vehicles registered in 2009 onwards
  • Daytime running lights
  • Front fog lights
  • Prop shafts
  • The condition and security of bumpers
  • The condition of the rear drive shaft
  • The floor condition
  • Cab step and security
  • Undertray security
  • Noise suppression equipment
  • Emission control equipment
  • Engine malfunction light
  • Fluids leaks that could affect the environment

Tougher MOTs for diesel

The biggest change will affect diesel vehicles. Consequently, there will be much stricter smoke limits to reduce emissions. If any smoke is detected coming from the exhaust it will result in automatic failure of the MOT. In addition checks on diesel particulate filters (DPFs) are coming into force to make sure they are working.

Any vehicle will fail the MOT if a defect is dangerous. In these cases the owner will not be able to drive the vehicle away to get it repaired before returning for re-testing. Instead the vehicle must remain at the testing station until repairs are done or it can be transported away.

If you have any questions about tests or would like to book an appointment please contact us. In addition you can give us your vehicle details and we will send you a reminder via text whenever an MOT is due. As a result you can ensure you never forget.
