Pre-MOT Inspection Checklist for Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Owners
These checks follow this Chevrolet Corvette Stingray's own most-recorded failure strings, starting with what a tester is most likely to flag on a Chevrolet Corvette Stingray.
-
the horn — “horn not working”
Press it. That is the whole check, and a surprising number of cars fail on it.
-
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.
