Hi All The mistakes i was making reference to in my original post ,were in the use of the computer system which is far from user friendly and not in the actual carrying out of the test or retest. If a vehicle passes their should be no problems,but when you have a failure, trying to find the exact wording from a pull down list can be very frustrating and time consuming. After several weeks we are still finding our way round the system. We have found we were testing out of hours,I have now changed our opening/closing times on the system. We have tested out of class (easily done) Mileage can be left off. Finding brake weights can be a problem. There are many more things which can go wrong,but don't want to prolong this post. If your not a tester its difficult to explain this system,but if you get a chance to look at the system you will get an idea of what a lash up it is and the info it can hold to be used if required against you. How are you other mot stations doing or am i the only one who think its pants? regards Tony
