Whys that then?  If is because of the RBT then I have to disagree - its perfectly safe to use a RBT to test LR brakes.

The ministry have circulated an instructin that 4wd vehicles can no longer be tested on 2 wheel rolling roads.  It also states quite clearly in the instruction for the RRC 9and on the fuseboc lid) that you cannot drive it on a 2 wheel rolling road due to the vicous coupling.

As many cars now have fancy viscous 4wd systems the rulling has been applied to all of them.

Mine is an M reg TDI, so definitely should go out when you reach 5 MPH, if you need i can find the manual and scan the page stating this.

i have play on my steering wheel too at the moment, unfortunately you can see that going into the steering box, so i need to replace mine before the MOT  :'(

Range Rover Blues:
A small amount of play is acceptable in a steering box.

stageonesimmo:
RRB,

Thanks for that ref the testing - we do tend to lag behind the rest of the minisrty here in defence towers - no doubt they'll put some thing out on it at some point - but I'll be a civvy by then so wont know or care!   :lol:

Range Rover Blues:
Ah, now I see.  I understand it was foillowing a near-miss invoving a sports car with 4wd leaving the rollers :-.
