Answer 1

Why don't you pop round the garage and top them up before you go? But I'm sure the mechanic would be kind enough to top them up for you a little bit, it only takes a second.

Answer 2

Like Geoff says, you should keep your tyres topped up. You can do it for a minimal fee or free at most petrol stations and it only takes a few minutes.

Or buy a small compressor (for £10-15) and keep it in the boot. That way you can check the tyre pressure and top up if necessary wherever and whenever you want.

Hope you got through the dreaded MOT!

Answer 3

they are very strict nowadays and yes they will fail the car.
the tyres are the most important thing on a car as they are the only part of the car in contact with road(wet or dry) uneven tyre presuures on the same axle will cause the vehicle to skid when emergency braking is applied.they also fail mot's now for not having water in the windscreen wiper bottle,so check that as well tests are now £50 so a fail and re test is expensive,check all lights working as well and car horn as any will invite a fail....you owe it to yourself and passengers to keep the tyres in perfect condition as they keep you on the tarmac..also protects other roadusers as well

Answer 4

I believe so,pssibly because your tires are suppose to have less air in them for winter,but I'm not familiar w/ the area your in. I hope this helped a little,good luck.

Answer 5

I agree with Dan O. It takes just a minute to top them off. That way you'll be sure.

Answer 6

Answer 7
