CDT MOT Pass - advisory free

MSS · 3rd December 2021, 16:47

The 05 CDT has passed for another year at 156k miles, advisory free, thanks to Andy and Debz.

It had the front struts, springs, brake plates, brake discs/pads and droplinks replaced by Andy (trikey) about 6 weeks ago. The pinchbolt on OS turned out to be a real pain and Andy took the strut/hub assembly home to separate, which he somehow managed to do despite the bolt head being completely rounded. Andy and Debz then returned for a day to put everything back together using the new components. A job expertly done.

With the rear dampers, suspension arms and springs replaced in 2019, the suspension should outlast the car.
