Emergency spare and MOT test
Hi folks,
I had my S8 MOT tested this week and failed first time because I had my spare fitted, which was 18" with same diameter tyre after a cracked rim resulted in flat tyre. Apparently the rules are wheels and tyres have to be identical across the same axle. Fitting 18" winter wheels solved problem. Retest within next working day at no further cost.
Lesson learned and hopefully knowledge passed on to this community.
