I see these discrepancies when going from: - driving in hilly areas, and sometimes up to 70mph To: - driving locally, completely flat, never more than 30mph The car slowly figures out the "new normal" for your driving patterns, then either doesn't reduce the miles-remaining number, or...

Yeah, that was the daft bit - "hmm, we can't fix the door because we don't have parts, BUT we'll also do this MOT knowing it'll fail because of said door we can't fix" ?‍♀️ I'll keep this in mind for next time, thanks. I ended up sourcing my own parts. The two outside pieces of the door...
