technicially speaking yes its a fail
really depends on your examiner on the day tho,
ive had worse pass
but ive also had less fail
all depends what side of bed your examiner got out of that day lol :rolleyes:

Yes it should fail

It should fail as it will let dirt/grit inside causing failure....I would change a.s.a.p my self

No, its only an advisory.
Only excess play is a failure.
