Preparing for the NCT
2001-05-04 - By Philip Byrne
Please prepare for the test by ensuring that:
1. Your car has adequate oil and water
2. The boot is empty and seats are clear of personal belongings such as removable baby seats
3. The vehicle is reasonably clean (especially the underbody)
4. The wheel hubcaps are removed and the tyres are inflated to the correct pressure
5. The timing belt has been replaced in the case of a diesel vehicle, i.e. within the timeframe specified by the vehicle manufacturer.
It is recommended that you co-incide the servicing of your vehicle with it's NCT.
During the servicing of your vehicle, we advise that you take special attention to (in order):
1. Headlights: alignment and condition
2. Brakes: front, rear and hand brake
3. Exhaust emissions: in most cases a slight tuning of the engine is sufficient.
