New MOT
 
Hi folks, my D4 passed the MOT today with no advisories. :D

I'm always a bit relieved at a pass as the car is 15 years old this year.

Pardon my exuberance but it's a great feeling!:)

Think of those of us with D2s, and it's an even bigger relief. Good job.

Mines due in tomorrow. Would have been Monday but the MOT stations gas analyser was faulty! Fingers crossed.

Mine was collected by my fitter/tester on Monday 6th January, but had to be slave started due to low battery.
Returned at17:00 same day passed MOT andfully charged, mates rate of course (£30).
Nice having friends

I can imagine keeping an older car of such complexity on the road can throw up the odd challenge!

Good luck HP and well done TC

Thanks Saff, unfortunately it failed. :-(
But it was only a split CV boot, all else good, so going back next Wednesday to be fixed and passed!
At least that's a job that pretty much any decent independent can do. :cool:

Well for the age of the car that isn't a bad result. Glad you're getting it sorted.

Well I seem to have hit a problem, garages suppliers have sent the wrong part(s) so they're now off to talk to Audi.
They seem pretty confident Audi can supply the right bits, anyone think there's a possibility they can't or know that there's an obvious aftermarket alternative?

Have not used them recently but the parts I got from them in the he past have lasted well without any issues. https://www.jandrcvjoints.co.uk

Some other CV joint boots from other suppliers sometimes have failed after 2 years.
