desperately need stock cat converter


Recommended Posts

Are you running a gt turbo? Tell him to consult his mot testers manual and watch his face drop. A grey import if declared manufactured before 1996 and can't be found as an EXACT MATCH on the emissions tester database is to be carried out as a non cat test. If it's a glanza unfortunately you are to have a cat.

Or if its a late GT turbo you 'need' a CAT too. From (reg from 31 July 1995 i believe)

Make sure the CAT you get is in good condition and the car gets a good run before its MOT tested.

Also make sure your engine is running normally and youve no exhaust blows, not burning oil, no leaky injectors, blocked air filter etc because even with a CAT you can still fail emissions.

Best of luck, MOTs are a cunt :/

take it someplace else, slip the tester an extra £20, or a crate of beers, 9/10 it works.

Or if this works then Jackpot! Just a lot of them wont take the risk.

thanks for all your replies guys,

been sick the past few days

sorry I haven't replied,

I found a cat from a guy in Leeds my dad knows.

I don't have to fit the cat just need to prove I have one for the car.

basically the guy is covering his arse if I get caught on the way home, can't blame him really

thanks again guys
