castros_bro Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 Buggerchops MOT changes, post 2006 diesel with DPF "mod" will fail but much worse if your steering box is dripping (and who hasn't had fluids dripping from their box Mr Botham?) it's a fail. Quick book up all the 20th May MOTs. https://www.theguardian.com/money/2018/apr/14/mot-changes-strict-tests-diesel-cars-fail Christine 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panhard65 Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 At least my old 806 with the dpf removal will be ok even if it is dangerous and will kill everyone. Bit of a shit article really. richardmorris 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DodgeRover Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 Done properly how will the tester ever know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiC Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 My Civic is 2008 and never had a DPF, even out of the factory. I spoke to my garage I use and they said my car is too old for the new lower smoke limits. So should be completely unaffected. Done properly how will the tester ever know?Visual inspection of the DPF and the MOT will have much lower smoke level limits for those that required a DPF (basically after ~2010).

busmansholiday Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 Might be fun as the person who told me how to get my DPF "sorted" is the same one who will be testing it... Wingz123 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
