Pre-MOT Inspection Checklist for Nissan Dynamo Taxi E-NV200 Owners

These checks follow this Nissan Dynamo Taxi E-NV200's own most-recorded failure strings, starting with what a tester is most likely to flag on a Nissan Dynamo Taxi E-NV200.

• the lights — “registration plate lamp(s) inoperative in the case of multiple lamps or light sources”

  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 steering — “steering rack gaiter missing or no longer prevents the ingress of dirt”

  With the wheels straight, rock the steering wheel gently with the engine off — more than about an inch of free play before the wheels move is worth investigating. Split rack gaiters are cheap to replace and commonly recorded.

• the wipers and washers — “wipers blade defective”

  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.
