Took the 1.8t for MOT. A few things need doing unfortunately. Both rear springs, and cat convertor. Fortunately old MOT still ok 'til 17 July. Booked in for next week to get done. Advisories on tyres (which I knew would probably happen) and front suspension bushes, so all will get done in due course. £ouch.

I've checked these back spring pod things for rot after Reading about them on here yesterday but mine seem fine also checked for wheel bearing play why it was on the jack but all seems fine. Checked all fluid levels and all fine.

But I've noticed I've lost a jacking pad again. Lol
