basically I'd agree with the above, you do need to give it a good stretch before taking it to the garage IMO

I thought that anything post 92 in S2/4 world was 0.3% CO and 200ppm at fast idle

You need a cat to get it below 0.7% or thereabouts.

In N Ireland mot's are done by government agency's. I'm allowed 3.5 and 1200ppm.
