    Hi All,

    Just back from the Nct and it failed miserabley on the emissions. These are the following readings-

    Engine/Oil Temp= 81c

    Low Idle= CO 2.22% above .3% FAIL
    (700Rpm) HC 699ppm above 0 ppm FAIL

    High Idle Lambada 0.86 not between .97 and 1.03 Fail
    (3,020rpm) CO4.37% above .2% Fail
    HC 673 ppm above 200ppm


    As can seen these are sky readings, any ideas as to the cause of these???? And what expense can be expected...:(

    Thanks in advance folks....

    Did you use some diptane?
    Did you give it a good drive before the test to ensure the cat was hot.

    cant see diptane doing anything here

    could be lambda or cat or both

    could be an ignition issue or ecu issue. get a diagnostic done ideally in a ford garage. cuts out all the messing

    imo
