Pre-MOT Inspection Checklist for Peugeot 308 Alre Prm Owners

These checks follow this Peugeot 308 Alre Prm's own most-recorded failure strings, starting with what a tester is most likely to flag on a Peugeot 308 Alre Prm.

• 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 exhaust and emissions — “emissions not tested unable to be completed”

  Listen for a blow at idle and have someone rev it gently. Then look at the tailpipe smoke: blue is oil, white when warm is coolant, black is over-fuelling. Any of those and the emissions test is the least of it.

• the lights — “front fog lamps not working”

  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.
