Very quick question if anyone can spare the time to answer - I am just checking car over prior to MOT and front driver's side drive shaft has slight play in it (none on passenger side). There's no vibration from it when driving, which is why I just picked it up. Is this an MOT failure or just an advisory? TIA.

Ok, no worries - just found answer. Sorry to have disturbed y'all.

Slight play in the drive shaft us unlikely to be detected, and if it was, then it's not a failure unless the boot is leaking.
