My son’s Mazda 6 failed its Mot yesterday for an SRS (ie airbags etc) warning and a braking one. Amazingly the main dealer (who didn’t do the MoT) accepted a booking for today and resolved these faults. The service desk says it was slightly low brake fluid and that set off the brake warning and that the SRS one was not live but due to a previous code saved by the system and representing when the brake one came up,
Maybe he or the receptionist have the wrong end of the stick but it sounds unlikely to me. Has anyone come across this? Read more
Tbh , nothing surprises me any more with these modern cars .
Latest (October) new car registration figures published yesterday - the overall market is down.
Petrol, diesel, HEV and PHEV all down, BEV up, but not enough to rescue the overall figures.

Until now they were classed as commercial vans for tax purpose. From April 2025 they will be cars. Double cab pickups were popular for this reason as people could use them as family cars but after this change it won't be attractive anymore.... Read more

Hi all
Hope this is easy and quick for someone to answer. I live in the ULEZ and have a car that I only use occasionally, mainly for trips down to Cornwall and back as I walk / use public transport in London no problem. I am concerned that some of the £12.50 daily ULEZ charges on my Road User Charging account seem to exceed the number of times I have driven in the ULEZ and also don't seem to correspond to the days I was using the car.
You hear these stories of cloning number plates - is it possible to find out from TFL what days I have been charged for driving in the ULEZ, and where the cameras picked me up? And, if so, is this via a some sort of Data Protection Act Subject Access Request or is there another procedure?
TIA
