These are safety-critical components — any brake deficiency will result in an MOT fail. Typical repair costs: £150–400. Pre-MOT check: Listen for squealing or grinding noises. Check brake pedal feel — if it feels spongy or goes to the floor, have the system inspected immediately. Look at brake pad thickness through the wheel spokes (minimum 3mm).

Visibility — 4.5% of failures

Visibility issues account for 4.5% of MOT failures on 2010 Vauxhall Movano F3500 L2h2 Cdti100 models.

Cracks in the windscreen swept area, ineffective wipers, or empty washer bottles are common causes. Typical repair costs: £10–300.

Ensure both door mirrors are intact and adjustable.
