Hello all.....

After waiting almost two hours for my first Scoob MOT Test, and watching a succession of bangers pass, I was left red-faced and quite shocked when my PPP Turbo failed the emissions test.....two weeks after the 45K service......CO emissions were way too high.....booked-in next week for investigation by my dealer!

Anyone else experienced this........?

Agreed. O2 sensor most probable, MAF sensor is a possibility as well.

Another idea is to make sure that your cat was operating at its most efficient - ie when HOT. Two hours waiting enough to cool it down.
