Nissan Crossmember

I still can't believe that people struggle so much with the English language.

Corrosion is corrosion, corrosion is a Pass and Advise.

Excessive corrosion, is corrosion which exceeds acceptable levels. Excessive corrosion is a fail.

It's not a prescribed area, so it can have as many holes as a colander, but if the mount is still attached, and unlikely to immediately fall off, you can call it what you like, call it "very corroded" "F-ing corroded" "burgered" but as long as it hangs on in there it isn't excessive.

VOSA's reply is wrong! If the crossmember is excessively corroded its a fail! That is what the word means. It has exceded the acceptable limit, ie the mount is hanging off! Excessive corrosion does not mean a few holes, that is defined as "usual for a nissan"

David, Daveg, Baz, all youu other guys with a hotline to VOSA - Have a word!

Ya, you are correct in saying VOSAs reply is wrong,
On a primera or micra, the engine bracket is not bolted to a cross member,let the games begin lol

Continuity of structure it fails under gents
