mot failure help

Post by kingbillybongo » Thu Jun 14, 2012 5:51 pm

not happy :cry: billy failed on the innersill near leaf spring mounting(needs some welding).apparently there are some air con pipes in the way and they may have to remove them.dose this sound right or are they something to do with the cooling system as im worried they dont know that much about bongos.someone please put my mind at rest. [-o< [-o< [-o< .i suppose its not a bad mot for a 16 year old bongo.

Nothing to stop you getting a second opinion, idealy from a Bongo savy MOT garage.
Take a torch, toilet roll, and tea bags.
