Hello
I'd be really grateful for any pointers with this.
Car failed MOT today on handbrake (hopefully just needs adjusting) and emissions on CO level on second fast idle. (Printout attached, I'm hoping this is legible)
Last year, with different test centre and equipment it got 0.1% CO max 0.2%. Since then I've replaced the cat (which fell apart) and exhaust.
I don't want to start replacing things willy-nilly. Has anyone had a fail like this? or any pointers? The MAP sensor in my car is Vauxhall, which has always annoyed me.
The MOT guy thought I'd just been too careful with the car and the cat had clogged. I'd like to point out that this has not been the case.
Any help gratefully received.
