Thanks Gripped. My list to check and clean at the moment includes: ICV, lambda sensor (most likely as on startrek it showed an error), exhaust leak, MAF sensor. It is my 16vna which failed so thankfully not a boost leak

Please help - What on earth do I change or clean on a 16v NA to get it through the CO emissions test?????? I have put on a new CAT, New Lambda, new Radiator, New thermostat I have removed, checked and cleaned EVERY pipe up to the throttle body I have run startrek and temps seem 'good' Running out of ideas

Checked the pipe from the map sensor to the manifold? Or indeed the map sensor itself? (Sorry I was a bit slow this morning - still asleep )

It was good seeing you this morning Neil I can’t see any sensor between air box and throttle body There is a fat plastic tube but it’s hollow and nothing electrical attached Now I am being slow I have read some more posts of yours Neil and I know where to look for the map sensor now and the pipe to the plenum which should not be split and also clear so will check that out too.

It “lies” though, it says lambda and cam sensor but lambda new and cam sensor checked out Same output of errors every time as above Does it say they're broken, or that there's a value that isn't expected?

Scenario was ...
start startrek lambda pass wait seconds lambda fail
replace lambda sensor start startrek lambda pass wait seconds lambda fail
I will try it again and post pictures again I still get the cam sensor error too
And the injector light is still on

A bit of a thread resurrection Rich. I don't know if you have resolved the problem.
When I put mine through its MOT yesterday the emissions, particularly CO, were a bit higher than they were 14 months and just 600 miles previously.
Thinking about it, the petrol in the tank probably dated back to September last year as I hadn't used the car since then. I wonder if old petrol could be your problem?
16VT and X1/9 1500
We must all do our part for the planet. I unplugged a row of electric cars that nobody was using.
