    To be a MOT tester.. you've got to be a qualified mechanic (it's one of the requirements).. I'm sure if you said "hey what's wrong with my brakes you failed them on the MOT.." they'll tell you the issue so you can get it rectified..

    or the bias or the pads or the fluid or the cylinder or the pedal etc.. just ask the MOT garage why it failed.. it's not hard?

    Take it to a mechanic. If you don't know what the issue is based off the description. Then I would seek professional advice on the brakes. When they do a MOT they test all brakes (including handbrake) to see make sure they brake correctly.

    Power Steering Box.

    they're such a pain to change and pull off also.. for the price of a new one it's definitely worth the head ache of trying to pull the old one off.. had a hydraulic puller on the last one i did.. refused to move so just pulled out the grinder and Dremel
