Frequently Asked Questions
Citroen MOT FAQs
Do I need to take my Citroen to a dealer for its MOT?
No. Any approved MOT centre can test your Citroen without affecting its warranty. Choosing a garage that knows Citroens means any repairs are done right first time.
When is my Citroen's first MOT due?
Your Citroen's first MOT is due three years after it was first registered, then every year after that. You'll find the date on your current MOT certificate or on the GOV.UK MOT history service.
How early can I book my Citroen MOT?
You can MOT your Citroen up to a month (minus a day) before your certificate runs out and still keep the same renewal date.
How much does a Citroen MOT cost?
The DVSA sets the maximum fee for a car MOT at £54.85. Call our Worthing team or book online for our current Citroen MOT price.
Can I get my Citroen MOT and service done at the same time?
Yes. Booking them together means one visit instead of two, and it's a good way to catch any problems early.
Is my timing belt checked during my Citroen's MOT?
No, the timing belt isn't part of the MOT. If you're not sure when yours was last changed, ask us when you book and we can check it for you.
Will a warning light fail my Citroen's MOT?
It can. Lights such as the engine management, airbag or ABS warning can all cause a fail. If one is on, mention it when you book and we can find the fault before the test.
What happens if my Citroen fails its MOT?
We'll explain what failed and give you a clear quote before any work starts. If you leave your Citroen with us for the repairs, the partial retest is free within 10 working days.
Can I wait while you MOT my Citroen?
Yes. A Citroen MOT usually takes around 45 minutes to an hour, and our customer area has free Wi-Fi. We'll make you a tea or coffee, or even get you a bite to eat.
Do you MOT Citroen vans?
Yes. We MOT Citroen vans of all sizes, from the Berlingo to the Dispatch and Relay. Not sure which MOT your van needs? Give us a call and we'll check for you.
Can you MOT my electric or hybrid Citroen?
Yes. Electric and hybrid Citroens need an MOT from three years old, just like petrol and diesel models.
