April 2012 MOT

Post by Terry1948 » Thu Jan 26, 2012 8:25 pm

Just had a quick look at the new regs coming in. May be a failure if your warning lights show an error code, also check self leveling lights, modified suspension,brakes, wheels fouling bodywork. In future it could be a minefield for modders have to wait and see what happens even engine mapping may come under scruitiny :rant:

Non type approved cats have been on the radar for a couple of years now, hence why Milltek now sell their cats with a track day use advisory on them.

Depends on how friendly you are with your tester or if you can be bothered to swap out the cats each time for your MOT.
