Well chuffed
The guy says she was fine and did'nt notice any advisories
He did say the new handbrake cables that i fitted where rubbing on the inside of the tyres which i find strange but he sorted that out for me so all is great |

tbh mate the state of your rear hubs probably means you'll need new ones of them to read properly.
But fingers crossed they will be ok. If you can get an osciliscope then we can check them, nick one from work or summat. |

aye, a wee bit of laquer on them will also prevent any future corrosion as well. |
