Does the speedo need to work? My rev counter works but not my mph????
Balls!
RE: Mot! - Toms306 - 27-09-2012
Nope........
I know someone thats been using a sat nav as a speedo for about 3 years now lol.
RE: Mot! - stevieg - 27-09-2012
Toms right, the speedo doesn't have to work
RE: Mot! - Eeyore - 27-09-2012
my mph cuts in and out.
Mot! - ben87 - 27-09-2012
Lol - 1 forum says yes,another forum says no
Typical
RE: Mot! - 4WayDiablo - 27-09-2012
Yeah but were right :-)
Re: Mot! - aggyj17 - 27-09-2012
you dont need a speedo. how would they test it??
RE: Mot! - Toms306 - 27-09-2012
Oh, just had a look at the other forum, you used to get away with no speedo, but maybe thats not the case any more then!
RE: Mot! - Niall - 27-09-2012
Providing you have a way of displaying speed in either kph or mph, your all good. Just put a satnav in the car (not on the windscreen - that's a fail) and your good
RE: Mot! - Toms306 - 27-09-2012
Heres the link from the otherside - I'm not so sure now then!

"The car will fail if a speedometer is not fitted, "
Stick a shat nav in the car and problem solved.
RE: Mot! - CJ_Derv - 27-09-2012
Listen to this forum!!
RE: Mot! - daddyfixit - 27-09-2012
fitted, but may not work at all----as yet its operation isnt a testable item.
Mot! - ben87 - 28-09-2012
No where can I find it will fail only be an advisory if speedo is defective
RE: Mot! - puglove - 28-09-2012
They cant fail it, as they can only legal test it on the ramp or on the brake rollers, any parts moving it to/between ramps is not legaly apart of the test so how can they test it?
Mot! - ben87 - 28-09-2012
Balls just found it on vosa website
RE: Mot! - puglove - 28-09-2012
And the 100% true verdict is?
Mot! - ben87 - 28-09-2012
Needs to work lol
RE: Mot! - stevieg - 29-09-2012
we have never failed a car on a speedo not working as theres no way to test it thats within the mot guidelines
Mot! - ben87 - 29-09-2012
I've printed out the MOT guidelines and testing and the car will fail the speedometer is non operative...my rev gauge is fine just my mph gauge is screwed. Hopefully sort it today
RE: Mot! - stevieg - 29-09-2012
i would have just bunged it through mot and hope they didn't notice, but i'm not you
RE: Mot! - Niall - 29-09-2012
Got my mot this week
In all fairness, i cant see it failing on much except my epicly shit headlight alignment!
Mot! - ben87 - 30-09-2012
Only thing mine will fail on I reckon will be the speedo cause ain't got time to fix it. Gona pay the garage to fid the fault
RE: Mot! - HDIkyle - 01-10-2012
Just stick a satnav in, Our lasses 106 mot'd fine like this even tho they took it off the windscreen for "obstructing drivers view" Lol
Mot! - ben87 - 02-10-2012
Rather pass mine legally lol it's in the garage now getting sorted before the MOT lol as I had enough of trying to fix it
Mot! - ben87 - 04-10-2012
Well it failed on 5 things will list them later but who ever can guess all 3 things it failed on I will send a chocolate bar in the post!
(Excluded 2things listed on my Facebook)
Mot! - ben87 - 07-10-2012
Well no one wants chocolate then lol
RE: Mot! - Niall - 07-10-2012
Handbrake inefficiency, headlight aims and cv boot
Mot! - ben87 - 07-10-2012
Not all 3 are correct....
RE: Mot! - Niall - 07-10-2012
handbrake?
