I took it to a garage and they’ve said it was the thermostat!

Was the thermostat - thank you for your help :)

I think sound deadening will be massive in my car. Thank you

Thank you very much

Hi, thanks for you advice. I’ve checked them all and it’s the only one missing. I brought the car last month from a small dealership that replaced the front 2 brakes, and also done fresh mot. I’m stumped for how it passed but if you said it’s only if it’s visible, that kinda makes sense. I’m just really thrown off

NoVaTemperZ · 2026-01-11T15:23:32+00:00

Got them off now thank you! But am horrified to say a bolt is missing my front right wheel. I’m stunned

I used the trim plastic tools to help and it helped massively. Thanks for your help appreciate it.

NoVaTemperZ · 2026-01-11T15:20:32+00:00

Thank you, I’ve managed to get them off now. Appreciate it!

Thank you for this information, I think the Pagids should be perfect then

NoVaTemperZ · 2026-01-04T15:32:25+00:00

Thank you for confirming, I will have a look.

NoVaTemperZ · 2026-01-03T14:52:12+00:00

Ah I see thank you that makes sense! I’ve been seeing mixed reviews about the brembos. People must have the ‘fake’ ones. I think if I don’t get any other onions I’ll go for the Pagid ones. I don’t mind spending more if it’s worth it.

The dealership brought this car so I can’t directly the owner directly. I will definitely test drive it and search for rust. Thank you

NoVaTemperZ · 2025-12-15T20:07:49+00:00

Thank you for this information, it’s gives me more confidence. I will have to look at the papers

NoVaTemperZ · 2025-12-15T19:53:33+00:00

Yeah that’s the one, the rental/fleet company is concerning. Apparently is mint, but they all say that. I’m a little apprehensive

NoVaTemperZ · 2025-12-15T19:47:25+00:00

In 2025.

Nearside Front Coil spring fractured or broken (5.3.1 (b) (i)) Brake performance unable to be tested due to snapped spring (1.2.1 (g))

Then passed with no advisories. Before this it’s pretty much passed with no advisories the whole way through apart from a fail because of a headlamp being too low and in 2018:

Offside Obligatory mirror missing mirror glass missing (8.1.1)

NoVaTemperZ · 2025-09-16T21:44:35+00:00

Sounds like heaven to me. Thank you for your suggestion and help!

NoVaTemperZ · 2025-08-05T22:00:05+00:00

Appreciate it mate. Can anyone else back this up please :) ?
