Jev Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 I just had my 2001 Gen 7 T Sport MOT'd for the first time in my possession - passed!! Out of interest I used the GOV site to check on the old MOT's (as I have extensive paperwork showing old problems and repairs anyway so this was just idle curiosity). These comments made me wonder if this MOT person had ever seen a car with under trays or engine covers before???? "Advisory notice item(s) Under-trays fitted obscuring some underside components Engine covers fitted obscuring some components in the engine bay" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Chris_ Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 It's backside covering as there are items they can't inspect e.g. brake lines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G.Lewarne Posted December 9, 2016 Report Share Posted December 9, 2016 the factory covers also cover a good chunk of the front subframe and forward chassis meaning there could be giant rust holes they cant see. is just covering their backs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smwebb1993 Posted January 28, 2017 Report Share Posted January 28, 2017 If certain components are obstructed then they really need to wright it down as an advisory to cover their back just incase the component that they couldn't inspect fails as they can't removed any parts during an MOT by law Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
