| NEW MOT LAW IN SPAIN. EGR monitored!! |
|
New standards begin in MOT here. It seems to be a much more exhaustive control of antipollution standards and related systems. There is talk of special care with the proper functioning of EGR valves in concrete. IF they have been blanked ... what do you think that can be do about it now? lost in translation!

What about a remap that leaves the valves closed except when it detects it’s on a test cycle? Oh hang on...

My apologies Ruben. Just our warped (twisted) sense of humour as to what words mean depending where they appear in a sentence. As already said, your English is way better than most of our combined Spanish!!
