Well the Annual nervous system waiting test was passed when she went for her MOT today and didn't let me down. :thumbsup:
There were 3 Advisory Items though, and it took three attempts to get a proper emissions readout test due to the "Injectors" problem, surprised it got through that,
but strange what a 18 mile high speed run does before taking car in. ;)

Advisory Items:

001 Exhaust has a minor leak of exhaust gases [7.1.2a]
002 Nearside Brake Pipe slightly corroded [3.6.B.2c]
003 Engine has Injector Knock!

Not bad for a 2005 Diesel from new....223,940 Miles, mainly at high speed.

I bet my new exhaust won't last as many miles as the original, they were well made for sure.

The last time I ordered a new exhaust was ten years ago. But it wasn't just an ordinary exhaust, it has been an entire 75. :mrgreen:

Bearing in mind that your car's velocity is usually measured in mach number, one wonders what might constitute high speed John? :lol:
