Ridiculous MOT advisorys (pic inside)

Are there any MOT guys that can explain why this is so ridiculous?

No.4 is fine as I don't have a rear bench inside the car, but how can the standard engine covers be classed as an advisory? Secondly, how on earth is having to press the headlight switch an advisory? :brickwall

(Sorry about the upside down pic)

Pic?

No picture showing.

Strange, its was showing on my iPad. Edited so hopefully you can now see it??

Did you confront them and ask why? I agree though, ridiculous to get an advisory.

its just to confirm they couldnt check these items thats all. just covering their arses should anyone check.

Did it pass? maybe they had to write something to cover up the fact it has no cats :D

Yeah it passed bud. Car has a miltek sports cat and passed the emitions test.

only covering thier backs since thier not aloud to remove anything

if theres a fault behind the tray they wouldnt have seen it, if vosa checked and saw a fault behind the tray the garage is covered

a bit picky though

There should be a "Comments" section on MOT's for this, not "Advisory" in my opinion.

My dad got this on his B6 Passat a little while back too.
It passed with flying colours.

Very picky. I don't think it's a true MOT if VOSA don't keep up with manufacturers that fit such engine covers and undertrays.

They take a minute(s) to remove, and could reveal a host of MOT issues, or at least proper advisories like oil leaks or coolant leaks etc - the sort of thing I'd like to know about after paying (in some cases) £54.85
