Preparation Corner

As a Renault owner getting your car ready for an MOT test, it’s pertinent for you to know how to do so. For that reason, we’ve provided you with a checklist to get your vehicle on the path to its MOT test. 

1. Lights: Ensure all your lights, including headlights, taillights, brake lights, indicators, and fog lights, are working correctly.

2. Tyres: Check the tyre pressure and tread depth. The legal minimum tread depth is 1.6mm. Also, inspect the tyres for any visible damage or uneven wear.

3. Brakes: Test your brakes for responsiveness and effectiveness. Listen for any unusual noises or vibrations.

4. Windscreen and Wipers: Ensure your windscreen is free of cracks and chips within the driver’s eye line. Check your wipers for wear and tear and their ability to clear the windshield effectively.

5. Seatbelts: Verify that all seatbelts are securely fastened and functioning correctly.

6. Exhaust System: Look for any visible damage, leaks, or excessive noise from the exhaust system.

7. Steering and Suspension: Check for unusual noises, vibrations, or play in the steering wheel.

8. Horn: Test your horn to ensure it’s working correctly.
