Hi, took my Passat for MOT at Kwikfit yesterday and it failed with the following report "Nearside {and offside} front headlamp not in good working order adversely affecting beam image [1.2.4a]." I'm pretty sure there's nothing wrong with the headlights. They did, however, miss the fact that the front right sidelight bulb is blown - I have one to replace it. I've seen a few other people ask this question who have also been to Kwikfit - maybe it's just them trying it on? Another fail was "Centre (clasp) statutory seat belt missing [1.5.A.1]" - except it wasn't missing, it was under the seat. Any ideas on the headlamp issue, please? Thanks for reading.....

This could mean that the bulb is not in correctly, or the bulb alignment is out, therefore requiring adjustment. Take it to a proper garage. Kwikfit are ****.
