Default FFS what next

Just taken the Blue mb for test, it got an advisory last year for a chip in the passenger line of view....i told him of this today
the car passed with an advisory for a little play in the struts , Ben at AVP had done the mounts etc so i queried this and he said it was nothing to worry about as all vw/audi's nhave a little play and he was covering his back and there was nothing wrong.....yet i did not get an advisory for the chip in the screen........

I get this with mine each year too despite upgrading to uprated 034 top mounts and got the same reply.

I don't ever tell the tester of any previous advisories or problems before a test.

That's almost as bad as 'Car tested in Race Preparation'...

I think they get brownie points if they can write something down...
