Somebody on another forumn is going on about it. Something about EU law being added to MOT test. Anybody able to shed more light on this?

 

Arse, my lifters are louder than that

I'm An M.o.t Tester And Aint Heard Nothin Yet , You Get Loads Of P--h Coming Out About Mots Will Be This And That , Last Thing I Heard Was Changing To 2 Years And That Has Come To Nothin

i once got a fail on an MR2 i had due to the None standard exhast pipe being, and i quote "Noise in excess of that of a standard unit" - took it to another garage and it flew thorugh

 

BTTT.

 

Average speaking volume is 80db, so think it's rubbish.
Cars can be failed on non standard exhausts but unless mentally loud are usually ok.

All depends on the MOT tester. Mine just passed with just a turbo elbow and half a cat

But then my mate had a full Miltek exhaust fitted to his E36 M3 and a different MOT tested fail it because it was too loud.
