Not sure the DPF would affect the emissions, I don't think they check for particulates. Someone may know for sure. Have you checked the state of the air filter, it was that that caused an emissions failure on my Transit.plate value is 0.54, my MOT;
accel. 1 - 2.33, 2 - 0.84, 3 - 0.81, 4 - 0.76, 5 - 0.77, 6 - 0.75 with mean value 0.75 and 0.01 drift
tester says put some cleaner thru and rag it, see if it passes if i take it in straight after a run
yes, they've sold an illegal car, but prove it? legal route is something i 'should' do, but i expect it will end up costing me a lot of money. more than the cost of a second hand, or even new DPF?
