If you seriously think they are not correct you can get a second opinion or get them to show you in the warrent manual where it said what they think the rules are. Some warrent places have. God complex but they still have rules to follow

pity that on about the 3rd page from the front it says, anything deemed to be unroadworthy or not up to standard is up to the wof inspectors discretion

[Guest boostin]

Last time we got audited we just about lost our WOF authority! We had to be mega strict for about 6 months. Pissed off so many customers, but the guys out the front explained it all and most seemed to understand.

[Swindog]

Funnily enough i took mine in today for a WOF. Passed no worries. Had to tighten hub nut but i just borrowed his rattle gun and 35mm socket and mint. No probs whatsoever lol sorry Ray.

[swiftbrad]

may have wires crossed here but is this same car that WOF ran out in Jan?

[QRAF]

i loved getting a wof at night, well not anymore due to being stricter

those were the good old days

This...

RAYDEO

well im working on getting a wof on my car tomorrow so you'll see it out and about more often, its been parked up since the wof ran out on the 17th of jan.

Maybe the wof man was a little over zealous cause you car had'nt had one in over 2 months at time of testing.

They annoying like that

[RAYDEO]

thats a very good point.

anywho, thanks very much Leith for offering to sort it for me, if the weather is too crappy ill sort it on monday.

as for the aleged mishap with the jack. "pics or it didnt happen"!!!

[Swindog]

So your calling me a liar?

I saw it so it happened.

And my twisted jack tells all!

Yeah ill sort it tomorrow sometime. Im under the thumb today.

[RAYDEO]

i wasnt going to post this picture but it is amusing...

took my car to vtnz last weekend after changing the steering rack boot and the tierod end taking the tint off the r/r tail light, amusingly i didnt do anything to the rear brakes and they passed easy!

go figure

[kamineko]

HAHAHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHA

[Swindog]

Not hahaha at the big hole in my lawn! Lol jokes.

[Guest keltik]

At what point did jacking a car up on a wet lawn seem like a good idea?

[WRXER]

I was just thinking that myself haha can someone please photoshop an EPIC FAIL onto it

[Swindog]

Hey, i can only advise the man. What he does is up to him. I have the use of a nice double garage across the road. But nnoooooo.

[MercuryFree]

I almost did that in my garage by accident once haha fail.

[Swindog]

He had the jack all the way up, it was fine until he hit the tie rod end with his hammer. ... then WHOOMP! the car fell over.

I had to get some concrete blocks and two other jacks to lift it up and get the other jack out and get the wheel back on.

[nt_a_foz]

all i can say is muppet..

who the fuck works on a car on the grass without axles stands , sitting on a jack and hitting shit...

Asking to get squashed??

[Guest]

at least the grass cushioned the fall i suppose

-smurff

[nt_a_foz]

woudlnt cushion it when it landed on your leg would it lol

[Guest]

well, your leg would be cushioned slightly better that if it was concrete, not saying it wouldnt hurt lol, but ild say a little less

-smurff

[Guest keltik]

Why would you hit a tie rod with a hammer?

[Jimbob]

because its faildeo hehehehe ^^ jks
