Testing

We use independent MOT examiners to ensure you the customer get a fair MOT

MOT TEST PREPERATION & ARRANGEMENT

Every car over three years old has to have one. It’s for your safety and the safety of others. At Autotune we aim to pre-MOT your car, light van or even goods vehicle and prepare it for a first-time test pass every time. Don’t trust your life to a dodgy MOT – get it done right the first time.

SOME MOT FACTS

More than 2/3rds of each tyre on the vehicle has to have at least 1.6mm of viable tread – including the spare? Tyres are inspected for damage around their entire circumference for faults many motorists would pay little heed to on a daily basis.  A faulty sidelight bulb is sufficient to fail the M.O.T and that means more cost to you for a re-test. Wipers must clean effectively and the water jets must be working.  Corroded brake pipes and structural members are a favourite (potentially lethal) “failure” but they can be difficult for the inexperienced eye to spot. Diesel engines have to undergo rigorous particle emission tests. A dirty air filter can give rise to failure!
