Had my MOT on Friday, and it failed, as every year... but this year its failed on rear right sensing valve, the guy said it was stuck in place, it shouldn't need replacing just needs the wheel taking off and having a good wiggle to free it, they said they could do it for a price but i could save myself some cash by doing it myself, and ill do anything to save cash as been a student isn't fun.
Just wondering if anyone can offer me some advice on the wiggling, and how to get it undone, he said use a tun of WD40, and showed me the problem area.
Mike.

Seems like mechanic has given you the best info.
Take off side rear wheel off. Put car on stands and spray WD40 onto the load sensing valve and wiggle the link up and down using a pair of pliers.
