mot time

[jonesy]

hi,me mots due in a few weeks on my zstd,ive been told you now need a cat fiited on a diesel from 2014 if it was manufactured with one,as mine has a bypass pipe,is this true,many thxs martin.

The exhaust system should be basically the same as when it left the factory, depends how keen your MOT station is.

[jonesy]

shame now one sells a false cat pipe,looks like a cat but its straight through, so the mot tester carnt tell the difference,

[grimmy]

I have a cat look a like decat on my car and it passes mot no problems.again I guess it's down to how thorough the tester is.

[jonesy]

saw them on ebay for £37+pp £50,so I thought I might aswell buy a cat for an extra £12 free p+p,for peace of mind, I don't think ill lose much bhp for having a cat,+ ill be doing my bit for the environment,i can allways swap em over after mot,

[peterzs]

I don't bother and have never had a problem, thats with a decat fitted, apart from sticky calipers, this time.

Think that was because I didnt thrash it up and down our motorway.

Back in Monday for a retest!!!

Think its how hot the tester is.
