Q I have an MG TF 2005 which, in my opinion, is in good condition and well-maintained. However, I was surprised when the last MOT said the following: “Offside Front Inner Subframe mounting prescribed area is corroded but not considered excessive and recommended to replace soon.” There is a rust hole on the inside of the subframe in the back right corner as the picture shows. The rest of the subframe is without serious rust. Is it allowable to weld subframes? What rules apply to subframe repair? If I have to change the subframe, who can do this job? How much will it cost to replace the subframe? A lot of questions, but for me it is unclear what it is possible to repair on the subframe.
