Pre-MOT Inspection Checklist for Renault Captur Evolution E-Tech Owners

These checks follow this Renault Captur Evolution E-Tech's own most-recorded failure strings, starting with what a tester is most likely to flag on a Renault Captur Evolution E-Tech.

• 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 lights — “headlamp aim too low”

  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.
