What has that got to do with vehicle testing MIke? As regards the M.O.T. test go on line and see for your self how low tech the test is. Most people, probably including yourself, don't realise the M.O.T. is looking for the lowest passable level of compliance only. That's a scary thought.. A tester can pass a tyre ON the limit at 1.6mm but would you want to drive on it? I wouldn't, but all a tester can do is advise that it is on the limit. Most people will say " Oh well it's passed", p!$$ off and for get about it till they slide off the road. That's is what I like about this forum, owners want to keep their cars well above a minimum standard.
In the motor trade you can't go running to a computer screen on every job that you are given to look up if a part needs greasing or not, you use your experience, in my case 41 years, so no I didn't know what TIS was.
Another point to ponder is on here we are all talking about one brand and mainly one model of car, just think about how many makes and models I have to know enough about before criticising.
