Can I tax my vehicle without an MOT?
In most cases, no. A valid MOT is required before you can renew your vehicle tax (for vehicles over three years old).
Are shock absorbers tested during an MOT?
Yes. Shock absorbers are checked for leaks and performance as part of the suspension inspection.
Does an MOT test four-wheel drive systems?
The drivetrain itself is not fully dismantled, but components affecting safety and operation may be assessed during the test.
