Hi there, Newbie poster here (but have looked at the advice on the forum in the past and found it really useful). I took my 54 plate Altea to the dealer today as the yellow emissions light was staying on. When I went to pick it up I was told that the diagnostic check found that the...

Does the Cupra suffer from bad emissions with CAT backs on? Got MOT this week and that's the only thing that's worrying me.

My 56 plate FR has developed an Emissions fault with only 5000miles on the clock :(:(:( Stealer can't interrogate the ECU to find out why :confused::confused::wtf: The say that I may have to pay £1200 for new ECU :cry::cry: Anyone else had this problem??

Excesive Carbon Monoxide, my first thoughts are fooked front lambda. What do you guys think? Here's what the test sheets reads: Fast Idle Test Speed 2650 / min CO 3.46 % Vol HC 150ppm Lambda 0.91 2nd Fast Idle Test Speed 2760 / min CO 3.33 % Vol HC 156ppm...

I'm getting a bit desperate here folks, as I don't have an MOT pass and my tax is due end of this month. Basically the dealer diagnosed a fault with the N75 valve. I've now obtained a new N75, thanks to a local VAG parts specialist. Question is, do you reckon this will cure the emissions...

My car has failed its MOT on emissions. Apparently there are fault codes logged which indicate problems with the following components:- Throttle valve pressure sensor - 058906283F (£152) Front seat lateral sensor - 6Q090960600A (£214) Does anyone know whether these would have any effect...

My car failed its MOT on emissions. The readings were: 1st fast idle test: CO 0.00 HC 5ppm lambda 1.228 2dn fast idle test: CO 0.00 HC 9ppm lambda 1.151 I'm just wondering if the cat is damaged. I've had some problems recently with the engine having erratic idling and hesitancy in...

well after my car failed its mot due to emissions on sat, taken to the garage today and dropped off lambda sensor checked and was ok before i left, oil sump pipe was nearly closed and full of gunk. be interesting to see if this is the whole cause or that plus the cat, as it was basically...

Anyone know what the emissions are for this car? Just weighing up what the tax is going to be like on a car Im looking to buy! Hopefully its cheaper than my 172!

I have an 04 LCR, took it for an MOT today and its failed on the emissions for the standard idle and fast idle, also failed on the lambda readings on the first test but not on the retest (I asked them to take the car for a run for 15 mins prior to the retest) Car is running the standard map...

Hi all, can any of the spanner monkeys out there help as to why the engine emissions light on the dash (the orange one with the outline of the engine: no 13 in the manual diagram) might be permanently lit. It should go out after ignition or flash if the emissions are wrong (too high?) Now...

I have taken my Carbonio CAI off (selling the car) and refitted the original airbox. :cry: Everything was hunky doory for a few days (although alot quieter and slower) but now the emissions light has come on?:wtf: Any suggestions why. The car isn't due a service till decemeber so don't really...
