Hi Stealth,

I guessed not but thanks for confirming. I'll defo warn the tester about it. I'd hate to be sued!

Cheers

No mickey - it's not testable - it will be fine.

Just make sure you tell the tester - wouldn't want the hatch dropping down on him while he's inspecting inside the boot area.

Hi all,

Cars going in for its MOT test tomorrow and I have just had a sever case of pre MOT paranoia.

Basically, for a couple of weeks, the hatchback damper on my clio has popped off its upper nipple when I open the hatch. I just clip it back on and all is good. Question, probably ludicrous, but is this an MOT item?

Cheers

Mike
