Hi all could anyone help with an emissions question..
i have a 2004 1.4 polo it recently failed its MOT ( natural idle CO2 = 0.40 pass .... second idle CO2 = 0.42 fail and fast idle CO2 0.44 fail).
i changed the air filter and plugs added some injector cleaner and took it for a 20 mile run in 3 ( automatic). its wifes car and only does around town driving about 10 miles a day max so expected it was a bit clogged up.
as a result 2nd MOT reading were a close pass ( natural idle CO2 = 0.32 pass ... second idle CO2 = 0.30 pass and fast idle CO2 0.34 fail).
i have checked there are no fault codes and although it passed just. the readings still seem high ( what should they be? average).
ive included a screen shot of MOT results as a pic.
any help would be great thanks.
