What is checked during an MOT and service?
A full service and an MOT check for similar yet different things.
The MOT will look across a whole host of legally set criteria. This includes your registration plate, lights, vehicle identification number, wipers, washers, windscreen, steering, suspension, horn, seatbelts, seats, emissions, fuel system, doors, vehicle structure, mirrors, wheels, tyres, and brakes. View the DVSA-provided checklist that MOT testing centres use when looking over your car.
A service, on the other hand, can differ depending on the service schedule set out by the manufacturer of your vehicle model, and which servicing plan you choose. At Protyre, these are:
- Bronze: A 27-point check that is designed for appointments booked halfway between the car’s annual check, such as the battery, oil, oil filter, anti-freeze, and steering.
- Silver: A 48-point check designed for yearly services that also looks at things like the fan, alternator, driveshaft, joints, and wheel bearings.
- Gold: A 59-point check that dives deep into your vehicle, checking aspects like the pollen filter, radiator inspection, engine inspection and more, as well as the factors covered in Bronze and Silver.
All three plans are guaranteed for 12 months or 12,000 miles, giving you extra peace of mind.
There is some cross-over between the two types of check, but you can be sure that when you book an MOT and service near you with Protyre, you won’t be paying for the same check to be conducted twice.
Do you need a service and MOT?
MOT and service requirements differ slightly. MOTs are legally required for all vehicles over three years old, every single year. If you don’t, fines and headaches can result. Learn more about what happens if your MOT is out of date.
Services, on the other hand, are not mandatory, but without one your car will break down more often, lose functionality, and provide a worse driving experience.
Take engine oil: if it’s not regularly topped up or replaced, your car’s components and engine can be affected by the build-up of damaging deposits, parts can corrode, and components will experience increased friction, becoming damaged as a result. As such, avoiding regular servicing can often mean you need to book a much more expensive fix at your local garage anyway.
What to bring to your car MOT and service appointment
To speed up your appointment and ensure as seamless a car service and MOT as possible, make sure to bring the following with you:
- Service book – This will show us the repairs and replacements your car has undergone before we start your MOT and service.
- V5C form – If your car is having its first MOT, bring its registration form.
- Clean boot – Our testers will often need to check your spare tyres as part of the service element, so remove clutter from your boot so they can easily access it.
- Wheel keys – Your car will likely have specific keys that unlock the wheel nuts. We need to access the wheels to perform the MOT, so it’s imperative you bring these keys.
