It's usually the rack mounts, they do wear out...
You could try tightening them up or replacing with a poly alternative.

RimmerBros and about £15 for a pair I expect.
Bare in mind that Dollys have 'loose' racks in general and MOT testers usually point it out because they're used to boring moderns.
