blob eye failed mot on bad emissions
Went for the mot today only to told it failed due to high emissions. Also noticed really bad fuel economy.
Help needed.the car was remapped before I had it. So not sure if it's that.
Local mappers would t touch it because they don't have the original map. Any advice is welcome

Hi the readings are as follows
First idle test
Engine speed 2250-2750
Co max 0.30 0.58 fail
Hc max 200 ppm 61 ppm pass
Lambda 0.97-1.03 0.99 pass
Second fast idle test
Co max 0.30 1.43 fail
Hc max 200 ppm 6 7ppm pass
Lambda 097-1.03 0.95 fail
Car was warmed up then travelled a 20 mins run before the mot.. just checked the front lambda sensor but not too sure if it's a genuine one as there is no markings on it at all. Looks like it's fairly new to me. Thanks

It is up to the testing centre when it is tested not someone on a forum to tell the station so you can get it red hot but the testing station will test it to fit in with their schedule.
It would look like a new cat is required.
