i would unbolt the towball when going for retest and take it back to same place


i would also get down to last 4 gall and put some cataclean in petrol

and change plugs and airfilter before going back it will lower emissions

I put some new plugs and new filter in about 800 miles ago
i drove it for about 20 mins before i went to the test centre but he print out says it wasn't test for another 30 mins so it would have cooled down by then if i am correct?

Only just failed

fast idle test

CO max 0.30 mine 0.56

second fast idle test

CO max 0.30 mine 0.40
