Note 3 Where the service history is incomplete (except for pass/fail checks and signature), the CoF inspector must note this on the CoF checksheet, but the vehicle is not required to be failed for this reason alone. The CoF inspector can accept a form signed either by a technician or operator. Note 4 Some car transporters are fitted with an inverted and

Protective belt , sometimes called a protective ply or breaker , means an optional layer of ply material (cords) located immediately under the tread to minimise damage to the structural belts beneath. Note 2 Where a heavy vehicle radial-ply tyre has visible cords in the tread area, the vehicle inspector may pass such a tyre for CoF provided the tyre is in a safe condition, eg only the protective cord layer (protective belt, see Figure 10

A vehicle must be failed for WoF if a shock absorber has excessive leakage of damping fluid. However, it seems that quite a few inspectors are incorrectly failing a vehicle when the shock absorber only displays “misting”. Misting is normal on shock absorbers and must pass for WoF/CoF. By design, the piston rod carries a film of oil through the rod seal to lubricate the seal lips, thereby reducing friction/wear at the seal contact area, and prolonging seal life. Misting occurs when the
