MOT

Based in Ingleston Street in Greenock and serving the surrounding area for over 50 years Dunns MOT Testing station will service, maintain, repair and MOT cars, LCV, HGV and PSV. We have lasted many decades in business due to our consistently high standard of repairs and our maintenance contracts keep businesses moving across Scotland.

The MOT is an essential service that tests a number of mechanical and safety features on your vehicle to determine if it is road worthy.

The following section is designed to give you an indication as to what items are tested during an MOT and how this is done. The list is only a summary of the actual procedures used and not all items apply to all vehicles. Also it should be noted that dis-assembly of any part of the vehicle is not allowed during an MOT test which means that hidden items such as faulty wheel cylinders cannot be seen or failed.

  • Lighting Equipment
    • All head- and side-lights are tested for correct operation; condition and security. All lights must be the correct type. Headlights must be correctly aimed and can operate effectively on both dipped- and full-beam. Indicators, brake lights and hazard lights must all be present in full working order. They must not interfere with the operation of each other.
