Title: Passed The dreaded.... 2
Post by ADroste on Jun 25^th, 2009, 8:37pm

Sorry for bothering you with this new topic.
But today I'm so proud on my Scorp that I have to open a new one.

Passed the German MOT and Emission Inspection both for another 2 years without any concessions!

This does not seem to be a miracle for an April 1998 panther black 2.3l Ultima Auto Saloon with 172000 km (= 108000 miles) on the clock.
But ..... it has still the first exhaust, cat & lambda probe. :-* Emissions were fully in spec, and motor control worked properly and swift.

Is this normal for '95er Scorpios? I don't think so. Even no rust on the body. No rear axle noise. And especially: neither wiring loom nor fuse box problems.

Did I already tell you? I'm so proud.

Regards
Armin

Mine is a 1996 and still on its original exhaust except as already posted, the cat heat shield has been causing some noise and needed to be sorted.
