    I have to put the E36 through the NCT in the morning. There is one problem I know of, the ABS Sensor on the rear left is acting up and intermittantly is activating the ABS / ASC light on the dash.

    I know that any safety warning lights is a fail, but my question is, is it a full re-test or just a visual inspection afterwards?

    I don't really want to go and replace the sensor and then find I have to do some more work based on what Mr. NCT says needs doing.

    It's only a visual re test.

    Provided it's the only fail that is ;)

    As Gabbo said ,they don't need to use equipment for this so theres no charge.

    well the light is hasn't come on for the last two days .. fingers crossed it decides to stay off later on !!!

    I know it's only a dirty sensor (well I hope I know) but it's a total bitch to get out and this weather and the lack of a covered working area hasn't helped !
