Special Notice 5/2014

Thanks stealth.

Gone full circle virtually and reintroduced the original procedure pre MOT Comp

Thanks for the heads up.

I can think of a plethora of reasons!!

In theory wolfie1, that isn't the correct procedure. If you can't spin the wheel and the restricted free movement of the pads stops you rocking the bearing you should abandon. Unable to complete so you can't issue a pass or a fail.

However I tend to fail the brake bind and type in the advisory box "wheel bearing to be checked fully at retest" That's probably wrong as well, but I think it's a fair practice

Hurrah. !!!!
About time this issue was clarified.

but in my defense, we are only a small garage and time is very precious to us and you have just spent the last at 40 mins checking over a car and then you have to abort it and book in another retest thats lost revenue! we are booked up a solid 2 weeks in advance and the customer wont wait, will go somewhere else and then we get a bad name.
think the whole thing is crazy personally
