MOT Exam

Hi and welcome to the forum quickfit (David is gonna love you for choosing that name )

Which questions are you referring to? Are they the NTTA questions for prospective testers without any proof of or the "wrong" qualifications? If so, they are located here.

If they are the questions you get asked on the main course and subsequent demonstration test, there are several newly qualified testers that would be able to answer you.

Hi quickfit, and welcome. Not sure what your asking for?

I've just been through my course and had to sit the NTTA exam. Any questions just ask.

hi gaz, hope you did well in the test, to be honest it`s a bit difficult to explain what i mean, as you get older (nearly 60 ) you tend to forget what you learn in college, like i know how a steering box works but it took some deep thinking to know it as a sector shaft in it or i had nearly forgotten about ackerman steering effect, so basically i am just after a cross section of various questions that might be asked to see if i can still remember the answer to the questions without looking it up, if that makes sense

I expect I'll be sitting some sort of test to allow me to test vehicles for the road, that hoping I get the job and are put through for the testers certificate?

Thanks for that gaz, I have the qualifications some where with loads of dust on and older than the Magna Carta ? Thanks once again for your time and input ??

As a freshly passed NT I hope I can help put you mind at rest. I had to sit the NTTA test. JUst go though some of the sample questions so you get a idea of what to expect. Most of the questions of which there are 60 are not to bad if you read all the answers. I must admit I found some of the questions to do with steering boxes, cross ply tyres and old style drum breaks a bit tough. But by read questions and thinking logically I passed first time.

As for worrying about time on the test dont. You have 90 mins to do the test so there is no mad rush. As i said above i did have to take my time on a few questions but i finished with about 45 mins to spare.


As for the class room based tests, of which there are two. These take place over three days. Neither test is hard. Plus both tests are open book in other words if you are not sure on a answer you are free to look at your notes or look on th computer.

Also if it helps On my course there was a man who was 61. Who in his own words knows nothing about computers. In both tests he got 95%, he even got better scores that some of the boys sent from main dealers.

Then after you have done that you have the practical at work. I my eyes that was the worst one. Not that it was hard just stressful making sure you dont forget to check anything. But if you follow the routine in the manual you wont go wrong.

Hope that helps put your mind at rest a bit

congratulations on passing your exam and good luck for your course and demo.
