[quote="lee16v"]John, Best feeling in the world! Yup, the steering boot is fine. Had a look at it the other day and nothing bad to report which is a relief. Good luck with your MOT. Al, that's interesting. They obviously used the wrong test then but luckily it passed. Had they used that test on last years results it would have failed...Just. So a tip for everyone here is check the correct test is used on your car. It may have passed even though you're left with a fail ticket![/quote]
