My 2000 HLX Punto had its MOT today and they've failed it on the records sheet at :-
General condition of vehicle - Air con pipe broken
Shock absorber - OSF leaking badly
I said that the aircon pipe was bust last MOT also they agreed to let the shock go on a second look as not as bad as they first though so I have my certificate!
Being a car novice what leaks out of a shock, how do I tell how bad it is, what will happen if I leave it? They said it will cost £150 inclusive of VAT & Labour to have both done by them, is that reasonable?
Another worry...surely I can't fail future MOTs on an aircon pipe being busted?
Thanks
