My 6 is due an MOT middle of this month and was wondering what checks you lot would advise me to do before the garage get a hold of it? It's done just over 120k miles it passed last MOT and I've sorted all advisories bar a new rear beam. It's done about 8k miles this year.

tyres washers lights, rebuild that beam, check the rear brake lines whilst the beam is off, front to rear lines are above the left side of the tank.

disc pads,
pitted or discs with a lip, headlight beam aim, bulbs,
warning lights on dash,
tread depth (The legal limit for minimum depth of the tread on your tyres is 1.6 millimetres, across the central ¾ of the tread around the complete circumference of the tyre)

it would be an idea if we could get hold of a kind of DIY MOT Sheet that we could print off in the download section then go around the cars checking everything off in turn

this been done anywhere else?

Edit:

here's a check sheet you could run by!
Clicky

I usually just check the basics and take it, if they flag anything then you can just sort it and take it for retest :-)
