[ "Press ReleaseMOT Centre Tooting It is necessary for your car to pass an annual MOT test if it is older than 3 years. This is actually done to make sure your car is safe to drive on the road. If you bring your automobile to our shop, we'll make the necessary inspections and fixes so your car will easily pass its test.The MOT test determines if your vehicle satisfies the minimal requirements for lawful usage on the road, but it does not guarantee that it is safe to drive for the upcoming 12 months. Regardless of whether vehicles have an MOT certificate, all vehicles need routine repair and maintenance.MOTs comprise a number of manual and visual inspections of your car or van's components. In addition to emissions and roadworthiness, the DVSA criterion, which was specifically modified in May 2018, emphasizes your car's safety. We do over 150 inside and exterior inspections at the MOT test center in Tooting, strictly adhering to the government's checklist. A 45- to 1-hour MOT test includes the following checks:Wipers and WashersSeats and Seat BeltsWarning LightsSteering and SuspensionDoors, Mirrors, HornRegistration PlatesLamps and ReflectorsCondition of BodyworkExhaust and Fuel SystemWheels and TyresAny issues with your vehicle that got discovered during the MOT test are basically classified as minor, major, or dangerous, and you will get informed of them when the test is through. If the issue is small, your car will still pass the MOT, but our inspectors will advise that you have the issue fixed as soon as possible. This is crucial since the inspection only considers acceptable criteria on the scheduled inspection day, and minor issues could quickly become significant ones.The MOT certificateThe new MOT certificate is a document that was computer-printed. It serves as your proof of purchase for the MOT examination and displays the data stored in the MOT database.To remind you when your MOT is due for renewal, the MOT certificate (also known as a VT20) features a peel-off windscreen sticker.It is always advised that you verify before purchasing a used automobile online at www.motinfo.gov.uk because proof of MOT status is now stored on a secure database.The registration number and either the document reference number from the V5C registration certificate or the test number from the new-style MOT test certificate are usually required in order to check a vehicle's MOT status.Vehicle MOT Test ClassesVehicle Class 1: noVehicle Class 2: noVehicle Class 3: noVehicle Class 4: YESDifference between an MOT And a ServiceA service is similar to your car's yearly health inspection. In addition to keeping your automobile operating effectively and safely, regular maintenance will also help to preserve some of its value, particularly if you utilize a franchised dealership where technicians who have received manufacturer-specific training will use original parts.Regular servicing should make it quite painless. Any minor issues can get fixed before they worsen and endanger the long-term viability of your car. However, if your car hasn't had maintenance in a while, it may no longer run safely and effectively.Like everyone else, cars occasionally require some maintenance. Avoid the temptation to skip or postpone a service in order to save money because filters clog, oil needs changing, and batteries deplete over time." ]
