My K reg 1994 BX 17 TZD Saloon has just passed it's M.O.T. without having to have any work done to it !!!
I can not believe it.
IT PASSED !!!
IT PASSED !!!
It isn't just a car it is a BX and it's my BX. Long live the BX.
IT PASSED !!!
It may have just passed but i've just had to replace a front wheel bearing which was very close to collapse !
It got very hot, boiled what remained of the grease and nearly seized. I was under the impression that this couldn't happen with a noisy bearing but believe me it can.

How did it get through the MOT if the bearing was that worn?tzd wrote:It may have just passed but i've just had to replace a front wheel bearing which was very close to collapse !

Lots of Motors, mostly semi broken....
front wheel bearings
That is what I would like to know, Tim.
It was noisy when I took it in for the MOT but it passed !
