Are covered brake lines an MOT failure?
Discussion
I replaced my brake pipes about 1 month ago. At the time I had some spare windscreen washer hose (black colour) that I slit down the centre, put some glue on it and pushed it onto the new brake pipes. I gathered that this would protect them more from corrosion.
The problem is I did not think how they would inspect my pipes for the MOT which is due next week. I have tried to remove the hose, but it is stuck solid and think I would damage the pipes trying to remove it. What will the MOT tester do about this, as it is impossible for them to determine the condition of the pipes? Is this an MOT failure?
