Hi, an expensive way to fail an MOT !

Search MagnaFlow X Pipe, they only do 2.5 or 3 inch and can be bought in the UK for around £100. Otherwise search EBay and you’ll find X pipes from around £45, but would need to check the quality.

Personally you’d be better off getting a decent exhaust place to make you one.

Thinking down the same route. Why is this a MOT failure item, if the readings from the CO2 are ok?

...because the cats must be present.

So how does the recommended secondary cat delete get passed? or will it not now new MOT regs have been introduced?

It will only pass if they don't see it or know about the missing cats. Otherwise it's supposed to fail.

Hi, missing or "altered" cats are now a point of failure.

Dam government !!!!!

Just need a nice x pipe that can be swapped once a year for the cat .
Just had a quick look and from what i can see , its changing a lot for diesel vehicles. But not petrol.

Thought this was diesels.

Mate honestly it’ll be fine if it’s just the secondary cats. Most MOT places have no clue these cars even have them...

See here: Have you failed MOT due to secondary cat delete?

PCS have mentioned they have not failed any..

Hi, missing or "altered" cats are now a point of failure.

And have been for a few years.
My tester isn't interested in counting cats, only emission stats.
I've yet to read on here, or the other UK forum, of one car failing an MOT for a cat replaced by a x-pipe.

Mine passed last week with Milltek de-cat pipe. Car just needed warming up nicely prior to inserting the prob up its rear
