Default Nearly MOT time
My brakes are a little wobbly... barely noticeable unless braking hard. This happened on the track day at Goodwood

Will it fail the MOT? It still stops perfectly well...

Try and straiten them out during and at the end a long run. This is done by braking as softly as possible. It's a bit like a pottery. You have to heat them up to make it soft and then gently smooth it out. Hope that helps I did manage to sort mine out this way.

No won't fail as you won't be going fast enough when doing a deaccelerometer test.

Mine were quite badly warped and it passed - not even an advisory. I got them replace soon after though as it's quite unnerving.

Interesting what blue knight said tho.
