NCT

[Shallowhal]

Was talking to my neighbour,NCT inspector,telling me that screens will need an E mark,was supposed to come into effect in May but has been put back for a while....also in June as part of the test cars will now have a diagnostic tool plugged into the OBD port,if the car doesn't connect it's a fail,also any lights on dash(check engine etc) will also result in a fail.

it's a good job then that charlie sheens are'nt mandatory in a fuckin taxi.

The NTA never wanted them Doc....and i wouldn't put it past the fuks that it was their udea to insist on the E mark.

It seems as if the NCT people are trying everything to fail you. Given we are in a pandemic and screens are needed this effort of them having to have a E mark is ridiculous
As for the OBD port .  FFS

The missussss car failed a week ago on emissions...first year i didn't throw a litre of dipetane into a nearly empty tank...anyhoo,sorted and passed last Sunday....but there was also a visual on the sheet...an obstruction on the windscreen....phone holder!!....so remove phone holders also!!

[Dr. Martin Gooter Bling]

i use dipetane on every fill up.
my dpf is gone and it really cleans up the exhaust fumes.
ye wanna throw it in first and then throw the fuel on top of it.
if you do it dudder way round it'll just float on top of the diesel in the tank and not mix fully.

In an accident.... The wrong screen  material cud shatter into a Cople of guillotines........ Cant blame them for arse covering

[mercenary for hire]

I wonder why they wanna connect to the OBD port.Could they be trying to stop lads clearing codes from the waiting room while the car is on the ramp via bluetooth?That's what I was gonna do if I couldn't fix me heap last week.

Passed again anyway no probs.

They will be checking for egr delete,dpf delete,mileage clocking and "chipped" ECU'S.All except the mileage clocking will result in a fail.Clocked mileage will simply be reported to the customer.

A "chipped"ECU will require an engineers report to say the car is safe.

Read back over the original screen tread I posted that screens must be Polycarbon and NOT Perspects .Like you said Perspects will shatter .Needle No 2 next Thursday then Im removing the Screen .As soon and you can Beer on the Street nobody is going to give a fuck about screens or Masks .Leo says we no longer need to stay 2 meters apart one will do .As the real Doc says ITS ALL A LOAD OF BOLLOX .

if it's not a fail in the nct, who gives a fuck?

Did it this morning a screen is an automatic fail as it is a modification .I asked about Kitemarks or other marks lad said he was not aware of any just it was a non conforming modification .But if you fail it can be removed and its only a visual to confirm it is gone .I would suggest not fitting it for suitability as well .Not worth the grief .
