Well guys, had my Iva today and failed on a few things
1. Speedo was under-reading 7% at worst 3% at best..... I believe on my dash it is a potentiometer to twiddle so relatively easy fix there.
2.headlamps are "kicking up" the wrong way ie lhd.......might just be a turn of the bulb to rectify or new headlamps.
3.rear fog was operating with sidelights........re-wire
4.Axle weight at rear was over stated axle weight .......As manufacturer I can write a letter to the examiner and advise him of a re-distribution of axle weights
5.Parking brake cable had wire joiner which is not allowed.........new correct length handbrake cable.
6.Locking device required on screw seats of shock absorbers.........simple drill,tap and fit grub screw
I have no complaints what soever with the examiner, he was a nice guy who chatted throughout the test and described everything that he was doing and offered advice regarding possible solutions/fixes, so I am hoping to get sorted within a few weeks and get back over there to pass.
Ironically the one thing I was worried about was the emissions were fine at 1.7% CO (limit 3.5) HC was 260 ( limit 1200).
So all in all I would say it was not a bad fail as all of the fault are easily rectified.
