What Have You Done To Your Van Today?

[Dundee_Kev]

Do you know if the MOT requires the reflectors to demarcate the rear corners of the van or can they be placed anywhere along the rear?

Just pop them on the bumper near both corners, but not round them. Keep them roughly the same height as each other and don't use reflective tape, only
proper reflectors.

A good day all round.

Not my van, but my local indie sorted me out new front brake pads for the T-Cross as my 2 week trip.to France looms.
All for 90 quid supply and fit which I think is a good price

Used my VCDS to calibrate the speedo for my shiny new Cooper AT 245/65R17.

FrontAssist and ABS/ESC disabled errors dealt with and Speedo now reading 2mph over GPS which keeps me safe.

Good job DC!

I should probs have the speedo adjusted for my 20's. Is it strictly vcds or does carista do it?

Ken Taylor Transport in Slaithwaite. Went there for a class 7 a couple of years ago and I use them for all my mot’s now on all vehicles.

according to ChatGPT carista cannot do speedo calibration but OBDeleven can.

my Coopers are bigger than my 20s and on the drive home from the fit, i noted the speedo was under reading by 3-4mph, which prompted me to calibrate.

You might want to compare your speedo with gps.

Slow progress
Tomorrow cut out holes and we will see how good will look when fitted

Christ. Am gutted for you

Hope he's okay....

 

[SlightlyDisturbed]

Thank you, no injuries fortunately, he's just a bit shaken up.

Ironically, only lent him the van as his is off-road after hitting a deer about 300 yards further back up the same road

Did he go back looking for revenge ?
