Get a screwdriver and wiggle it around inside, scraping out all the crap from inside. |
Surely this should be on the I'm drunk thread.

well my car passed MOT last week and im p***ed off, i took my car into peugeot and they did a check on it and said that it was seized but the stupid garage i took it to passed the mot!!!! do you think i should complain about that? |
This must be one of the daftest things I've heard.
Phone VOSA and say "my car passed the MOT and it shouldn't have done"
I've heard of people complaining because they didn't think the car should have failed, but never complaining their car passed.
Just get the WD on it and keep on top of the maintenance. |
My other half says things like that lol
Had mot passed then went for service month later ball joints track rod ends and drop links all had play so other half said you should take it back to the mot place and ask why they passed it.
I told her to shut up and sit back down lol |
Us women worry too much thats why!

I sprayed Wd40 onto mine left ot for a while then sprayed it again. I then gave it the required wiggle and a gentle tease with a wire brush to remove any crap build up it moves now but my car is not currently being used but it moves.
I have never been advised about being seized and always passed MOTs or had advisory about more pressing things like brake discs seizing or suspension leaking.
