Have you tried having SRS system read ? My guess is a previous owner has removed the bulbs to mask a fault with the SRS system On my L reg Soft Dash once I found someone who had the RR computer it was simply a loose connector on the steering column that was causing the problem and never again...

Talking purely about the fact that he will take for an MOT and NO SRS Lamp is illuminating then EVERY MOT station should be Passing with an advisory that bulb is not illuminating If they FAIL because it does not illuminate then he is well within his rights to ask for a VT17 appeal form...

You can interpret the MOT Inspection Manual any way you like but if the SRS Lamp does not illuminate then it cannot INDICATE a fault and is a PASS EG:- If I turn right whilst driving and do not use my turn signals then I am not "indicating" my intention to turn right ;) A lamp not illuminating...

Nothing airy fairy Q. Does SRS lamp indicate a fault ? Yes = FAIL No = Pass It used to be Q. Does SRS Lamp follow the correct self-test procedure ? Yes = Pass No = Fail

VOSA/DVSA Special Notice 01-13 2013 introduced the new Testing Procedure for SRS Lamp Refer to Section 5.4 of testers manual for the updated procedure https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/518634/mot-inspection-manual-for-class-3-4-5-and-7-vehicles.pdf

Or as DVSA would say - an MOT Tester doing his/her job properly and refering to MOT Testers Manual Section 5.4 ;) To FAIL (Reason For Refusal) an SRS Lamp has to indicate a fault Read the above carefully and a "non-illuminating" SRS Lamp is not a valid RFR but if the vehicle is known to be...

Here is my thread I did when having my TD6 GM gearbox overhauled https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/td6-gm-auto-box-preventive-maintenance-or-panic-part-ii.207488/

As stated this is all under plastic covers - on an MOT no covers can be removed As an owner we can all remove them to check ourselves - I recommend you all do this SOON ! The exposed pipework was fine but I am changing them as well

Hidden under plastic covers fitted between N/S sill edges and floor pan are the front to rear brake pipes I had noticed the left to right pipe was a going to need replacing soon anyway but the pipes hidden by the covers I had no idea they were so bad - CHECK YOURS if you have an early L322 ...

What an easy job that was ! Remove viscous fan and rad cowling De-gas system if any gas left in by means of air con specialist Undo 2 x AC pipes from AC rad Remove 1 torx screw from below the the 2 AC pipes Remove 2 plastic "bolts" from slam panel that support the rad assembly pull...

It has been many many moons since I last had any issues with my TD6 BUT like most things they eventually break ! So heres what happened I noticed a slight increase in cranking to start engine from either warm or cold - this was only an extra second or two Driving normal 30mph round town no...

Dust covers are on The Bay of Thief for £1.60 ball joint cover | eBay Remove the ball joint nut Undo the tapered ball joint pin Remove knackered dust cover Fit new dust cover Refit taper Refit nut SIMPLES

If the ball joint itself is "serviceable" without excessive play then why not just simply fit a new dust cover ? I would suggest any good motor factor will have hundreds in stock as a common MOT fail item since the new regs came in As an example here are some from Sealey RJC01 Sealey...

Thanks am just happy that it all went back together OK The MPG is a good indicator but needs to be over a decent period of time/mileage but to be fair it seems to be quite accurate Consumption 1 was reset the moment I collected the car and is at 22mpg after 7000 miles

Covered 260 mile today not a single issue :D Trailer with car on the back - power all the way - no smoke I always reset fuel consumption No 2 with every full tank and it returned 23mpg (enthusiastic driving style ;)) One happy bunny :D :D

Not done enough mileage tonight to be able to state for sure BUT the amount of power and drivability I lost meant I had to notice something lol All I will say as of yet it is certainly smoother and the power just keeps coming and with the "sorted" gearbox the car is an absolute pleasure to drive
