Dave's "S200KYS" Jimny 'laner Build...

Simple fixes, yes, but that's what makes it more embarrassing missing them in the first place!

Mostly loose nuts...

Busy Sunday concentrating on the big issues and missed the little bits... and forgot to fasten the ARB disconnect back up?! Must have driven back from the Lakes with it still off?...

I wouldnt say that a mechanic checking the filler cap is pathetic, its a list that have to be checked. A filler cap has to be closed/sealed because of fire hazard, spills etc. Its not the shops that make the rules. If they dont check that your brake pipes are good, and they fail after 100miles and you crash, whos fault is it then?
I dont want to be ”that annoying guy” but after working along side by people doing MOT’s daily and knowing the rules for faults i cant just say nothing. Here in norway there are new rules all the time, making it more difficult everytime to do a bad job. Everything is online and the department can pop by anytime and want to do a recheck just to see if its right. From 2019 we cant even do our own cars on the house, no close relatives, we have to go somewhere else.
Difficult yes, but you dont want to meet the car with shit tires and no brakes on the road

Agreed, they work to a list of things to check, and as I said earlier Dave is always firm but fair, and has spotted things I have missed...

I wrote a big long post with lots of photos about fixing all the MOT failure items, but security blocked everything, and I'm not writing it all again...

Suffice to say all the points have been attended to...

Nooo! thats happened to me before and ironically on this very post its just happened again...

If it does it to you again, try selecting the reply option from the bottom 'action' button on a post, magically everything re-appears

So is S200KYS re-tested and ready to rock, or yet to go back?

Re-test around eleven this morning... they said they'd squeeze it in for me
