Pre-MOT Inspection Checklist for Kia Proceed GT-Line Lunar Owners

These checks follow this Kia Proceed GT-Line Lunar's own most-recorded failure strings, starting with what a tester is most likely to flag on a Kia Proceed GT-Line Lunar.

  • the tyre tread — “tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm”

    Check all four tyres cold, including the inner shoulder where wear hides — 1.6mm across the central three-quarters is the legal limit, and most testers fail at 1.6mm without argument.

  • the wipers and washers — “wipers does not clear the windscreen effectively”

    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.

  • 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.

Derived from the DVSA failure strings testers recorded for the Kia Proceed GT-Line Lunar. A check that finds nothing means the item is likely fine, not that the test is guaranteed.
