I know I should know the answers to these (and I think I did but they've gone :tongue_smilieSmile, but:

Are the front fogs part of the MOT?

Is up to 1 month before expiry that you can do the MOT and still preserve the anniversary?


Mot - SHAHZ - 19-08-2018

Yeap 1 month, and not 100% sure on the fogs!

I believe if they are fitted they have to work. yes go in a month early so you effectively get 13 months MOT - also if it fails you still have a month to get it sorted.

D*mn, MOT's due in a few weeks so was hoping to just tell them to do it on Monday when it goes in to check the TC thing, but I still haven't replaced that non-working fog light.

Maybe I'll ask them if they can slip it through, otherwise I'll have to get that sorted first (don't fancy paying the Lexus price for a replacement!)

Remove your fogs then they aren't there to be tested :p

What so if neither of them work it's fine? Or do I physically have to remove the lamps?
