I was told yesterday that my 2012 x250 Fiat Ducato LWB PVC had failed the MOT because there was insufficient clearance between the bump stop and the leaf spring. The garage suggested that either air suspension or a heavier leaf spring would be an option which they are looking into as well as contacting Fiat as its quite a young van for this to occur. On searching the web I found several forums stating that this is not a test failure and the bump stop is in fact a suspension assistor. I have contacted the dealer I bought the van from 12 months ago and they are looking into it.
I would be grateful for any comments or advice especially from anyone who has had a similar experience. I've enclosed a photo below.
Thanks
