However, if you’re shown a letter from the vehicle manufacturer proving that the engine does not meet British emission standards you must test to the next lower emission standard.įor example, a 1995 car first used in Gambia with a letter from the engine manufacturer stating the engine number and showing that the engine cannot meet catalyst emission limits, you must use the non-cat limits of carbon monoxide (CO) 3.5% and hydrocarbons (HC) 1,200ppm. Personal importsĪ personal import must be tested according to its date of first use. To prevent the build-up of fumes, the test should be carried out in a well-ventilated area.

Wankel rotary-engined vehicles first used before 1 August 1987.

kit cars and amateur-built vehicles first used before 1 August 1998.

If an engine has been modified in any way, it still must meet the exhaust emission requirements according to the age of the vehicle.įor emissions purposes only you should treat the following as first used before 1 August 1975:

two-stroke engines - unless they are subject to a catalyst test.

hybrid vehicles - with electric and combustion engines.

You must inspect vehicles with spark ignition engines first used on or after 1 August 1975. Kit cars, amateur built vehicles and American pickups are not required to be fitted with an engine MIL.

gas and bi-fuel vehicles including hybrids with 4 or more wheels, not more than 8 passenger seats in addition to the driver’s seat and first used on or after 1 July 2008.

On some vehicles it will be necessary to start the engine before the MIL goes off. Turn on the ignition and check that the engine malfunction indicator lamp ( MIL) illuminates and then goes off.

Vehicles used prior to 1 September 2002 should only be rejected, where a full catalyst test could apply. You should reject all vehicles first used on or after 1 September 2002, where original emissions control equipment components are missing, obviously modified or obviously defective.

You only need to check components that are visible and identifiable, such as catalytic converters, oxygen sensors, and exhaust gas recirculation valves.
