Evening all,
I've just had my tintop (Mazda 3 2L sport) in for MOT which it passed with two advisories. The advisories were:
Measurements
Brakes Advisories: RBT brake imbalance: 9% and 3%.
Advisory Items
001 Nearside front brakes imbalanced requirements only just met. It would appear that the braking system requires adjustment or repair. [3.7.A.5b]
002 Offside front brakes imbalanced requirements only just met. It would appear that the braking system requires adjustment or repair. [3.7.A.5b]
Having reviewed the MOT manual I believe the latest update midway through 2013 raised the brake imbalance requirement to 30% from the previous 25%. In my mind, 9% and 3% are quite a way from 30%. Am I missing something?
Tom
