Here's a question...about steering play as opposed to tightness.
From years gone by I have a vague memory of the MOT allowing as much as 1.5 inches play at the steering wheel, mostly confined to the box. Seemed a bit arbitrary at the time and enforcement was dependant on the tester.
Does this tie in with current thinking? It seems quite a lot but I suppose we have got used to the zero play found in modern cars.
