Hi everyone, Thanks for all your help with the emissions issue, the garage are on it now (faith is at an all time low) Does anyone know a mechanic and MOT station that knows about zeds/imports/performance cars, in and around York but can go further. Thanks everyone, sorry its a bit take, take, take at the moment, I'm new to zeds.

NIxy, Where do you take yours for servicing/repairs/MOTs? In and around York? I need to get my car out of the current place. Cheers

Hi everyone thanks for the warm welcome. Not sure about de-cat or test pipes as I drove it straight from purchase to garage and haven't seen it since as im back in London. Keyser may of saved my life by sending some cats to the garage - fingers crossed!

Keyser, Sent through a PM, Much appreciated

Thanks for the replies everyone, I do want to be clear though I didn't take it to Halfords! hah, previous owner and I think Halfords diagnosis ran me £270 for no reason. Thanks again. Paul.

Keyser, That sounds like a plan.Shall I PM you?

Hi everyone, I’m sorry for my second post to be an age old one and asking for help but I’m genuinely getting worried I’ll never actually drive my car again. I bought a car over a week ago that the current owner was putting through the MOT as I was getting the train from London to Newcastle. Halfords had said it failed on a blowing OS flexi on the y piece. I took the car off the guy anyway trusting Halfords opinion and took it to a garage in near York to get the new bit on (at £270) But the car has now failed on emissions, hydro carbons and carbon monoxide. However the garage don’t seem to have a clue how to fix it. They have suggested knackered cats, but is there a chance it could just need a proper full on service if it hasn’t been done for a while? Guy in the garage reckons cats could be £500, is that right? I’m losing faith that they know how to deal with this kind of car. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Or know a emissions friendly testing station in the north east? Sorry to jump on this straight away but I really am getting concerned they don’t know what their doing with a 350z Paul

Hi everyone, I have ventured into the world of a 350z Nismo import. cant say i'm having any luck though. First MOT failed on emissions and it hasn't left the garage. In almost 8days.
