Well, that wheel bearing has probably done ~215k miles - so it's had a good innings!

Why so?

I've got HIDs in projector lenses and I guarantee I will come back without a fail against them.

We went through this a couple weeks back, they're not an MOT fail contrary to popular belief.
We did?

Anyway; looks like you're right & it's now OK. Levelling & squirting must work, if fitted. If not, then fine.

They've even managed to confuse some MOT testers though with their vacillating. Which is concerning.

Anyway, hope you get your bearing sorted OK.
