NCT Car Problems

    Hi, just wondering has anyone had a problem with their steering after an NCT test?

    I had my private Renault Traffic tested last Wednesday. Firstly it failed on the passenger dip beam light being too bright, which I found odd as I have never replaced that particular bulb and it passed the NCT last year with the same bulb.

    Secondly, as soon as I left the centre I noticed a difference in the steering. It's like a delayed reaction when turning the wheel. I'm not sure if this is pure coincidence or not that this happened the day of the test or if they have in fact done something to the steering which I will not be able to prove now I guess....

    Any advice?

    Thanks.

    It's not the brightness of the bulb that failed it's the headlight alignment. You need to have them focussed.
