madmonkee 0 Posted May 20, 2004 Report Share Posted May 20, 2004 remoing the rear wiper? will this cause the car to fail the mot? Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Olly_K Posted May 20, 2004 Report Share Posted May 20, 2004 not sure, as a general rule, if it rolled out of the factory with one, you'll need one for the MOT. Just bung the geezer 20 quid Link to post Share on other sites
acf8181 0 Posted May 20, 2004 Report Share Posted May 20, 2004 shouldn't, my sis's nova had no wiper and it passed (i took it off cause the motor broke and i couldn't be bothered to find another one)its prob the same as reverse lights, if it has them they have to work, if it don't have them it'll pass.

Pittuf 0 Posted May 20, 2004 Report Share Posted May 20, 2004 Your rear windscreen wiper doesn't have to work, many cars don't have them at all.My escourt passed with one stuck half way, so they can't failed to have noticed it. Plus the washer didn't work. Link to post Share on other sites

kilokilla 0 Posted May 20, 2004 Report Share Posted May 20, 2004 officially if its there its got to work but it is ok to remove it totally. Link to post Share on other sites
antera309 3 Posted May 21, 2004 Report Share Posted May 21, 2004 kilokilla is right, with the wiper removed and the hole filled in, there's no way of them knowing there was ever a wiper there. Some base model mk3 Golfs came from the factory without a rear wiper. Link to post Share on other sites
acf8181 0 Posted May 21, 2004 Report Share Posted May 21, 2004 will pass with a bung in the hole Link to post Share on other sites
