Pre-MOT checklist for I20 SE Connect Mhev T-Gdi owners

Based on the failure profile above, ten minutes with a torch before your test removes the most likely fail items:

Replace smeared wiper blades and top up washer fluid — both are test items
Check tread with the 20p test and inspect sidewalls for cracking — tyres close to the limit are the country’s most common advisory
Feel for a spongy pedal or pulling to one side; check pad wear through the wheel spokes if visible
Walk round with all lights on: one blown bulb is the most avoidable fail there is

Check the engine before the tester does

A stored fault code with the engine light on is an automatic Major defect. Scan and clear resolved faults before booking.
