audi emissions

No rob your not reading it wrong
No match then test to cat default limits
Looks like there's something wrong with the vehicle not you !!

thought it was me going radio rental,a 10 plate motor?why aint that on the database?could it be that when they stopped sending out emissions books a decade ago they also stopped updating it?our last one was 13th edition circa 2007

my point was that the section on audis in my 13th edition looks pretty much identical to the 18th(at least on a4s)so my question stands.did they stop updating em unless the limits exceeded default?

The latest edition is 18th -last publication or update was July 2014 so there has been no update since then.
If a vehicle ain't in either the "in service emissions" or your EGA database and don't meet the standard there's not much you can do but to test to the instructions/limits in the manual.
It might be a case these days there is nothing to update
Regards emissions

went straight thru here last yr no advises so I have to guess it passed the bet test then.ho hum,guess ill just wait for the punter to complain,generally the case with owners of german motors....and by the way don't look to have been de catted,barely looks to have had air put in the tyres or any sorta maintenance let alone uprated/fooked about with.

Did the audi agents just do an emissions reading or mot emissions test. on our ega we seem to get different readings if he is not happy tell to take it to audi for his mot test if it passes on their ega.

All you can do is test to the standards we've all been given. If those standards are wrong it ain't our problem, although we're always the ones in the firing line. If there is still a problem with the emissions tell the punter to either go down the road for a "test" where the emissions (and everything else) will be "overlooked" (there used to be loads between Vauxhall and J11) or pay full price for an appeal.

We're always being put in the firing line expecting backup and actually getting sweet fa.

yup,just the same so I diagnosed it for him,cat on the o/s bank is knackered by the looks of things.checked co on other tail pipe and it read a lot lower.at this point he admitted that a fuel pump problem had resulted in it pi$$ing petrol out the o/s tailpipe a few months back so my guess is the box all the gasses are going thru is full of enuff sh1t to stop em mingling properly.even if I treat it as separate exhausts the average is gonna be above .2.bye mate,come back when its fixed...

doubt it,if they checked it on the other tailpipe it would pass.funny enuff its what he asked me to do,yeah right....my guess is hell go elsewhere and hope they use the other side.doesnt strike me as being awfully keen to actually fix it.
