MOT emissions

[Ian Perry]

I was a bit concerned regarding this test ,CO and HA passed easily the lambada reading ? took a bit of time to drop into the pass zone .
Good news the car flew through the rest with no advisories.Anyone else had issues with the emission side of the MOT?

I was concerned as well, had my first MOT about 2 months ago but it went through okay. The engineer/inspector would not lift the clams either (on the basis it required a tool to do so) and the same for the floor of course - so he said he couldn't check a great deal anyway!

Prob not best posting that kind of info on a public forum, people might get the wrong idea. This is because Jetstream test at the correct distances and the correct RPM's when the temps have warmed up, nothing more I'm sure.
