MoT today

<< < (2/2)

--- Quote from: "muddysteve" ---is that not because the EGR reduces a different gas (something or other oxide) rather than the CO2 which is measured on the emmisions test?

Could be !, the test sheet I have is called an 'MOT Exhaust Emissions Test Result', and details the 'Smokemeter' machine type, the only figure on the sheet (and the one the MoT tester pointed at) is the 'Opacity measured' value which is 0.56 l/m (which I assume to be litres per metre ?). My average measurement was 0.56, the Opacity limit is quoted as 3.00 (3 what I don't know !!!!)

Interestingly, the Disco passed its MoT today - emissions were tested (the Inspectors are in the area - my local station got done bit style, court appearance, huge fine and they lost their testing licence for 5 years  :shock: ), although the Disco passed the emissions test, I didn't get a record of what it scored  :?

doesnt the EGR only do stuff when the engine is cold?

I think that the only time EGR doesn't do anything is when you give it the full right boot............that's unless you've removed all the EGR gubbins and blanked off various holes - and then it definitely doesn't do anything!
