Pre-MOT Inspection Checklist for Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Jtdm-2 Owners

These checks follow this Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Jtdm-2's own most-recorded failure strings, starting with what a tester is most likely to flag on a Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Jtdm-2.

• the brakes — “brake pads less than 1.5 mm thick”

  Look through the spokes of each wheel at the pad — less than 3mm of friction material, or a lip on the disc edge, is the usual failure. Check the handbrake holds on a slope with a few clicks, not at the top of its travel.

• the lights — “headlamp not working on dipped beam”

  Switch everything on and walk round the car: both headlamps on dip and main, every indicator, both brake lights, reverse, fog and the two number-plate lamps. A bulb is a few pounds and a five-minute job.

• the wipers and washers — “washers provides insufficient washer liquid”

  Run the wipers with the screen wet: they should clear it in one sweep without smearing or juddering. Top the washer bottle up and check both jets hit the screen.
