Hi sorry if this thread has been covered before am I right saying that if the vehicle fails on brakes or any other component that the brakes have to be disturbed to do the repair and has been repaired in the same garage that it was failed in and never left the premises can go through as a fast track with new brake readings without having to be logged on for 15 mins thanks

I can very nearly always do a brake test in less than 15 minutes, personally I don't concern myself with how long it takes to do a test or retest.

Log on before you start the retest, enter the results when finished. It takes as long as it takes.
	If I was to agree with you, that would make us both wrong !

Easy peasy ..
If anything you failed it on was related to the braking system then do a brake performance check . It is what you are supposed to do .
I will do a free check if requested before actually logging a vehicle on for retest . Bit of a grey area . But I find it is a lot less hassle to say 'No they are not right,take it away and have another go ' than fail it again and make them pay for another full test .
