1989 745T; 205,000KM

First time I've had to take the wagon in to test. I was sure it was easily pass since it passed the "nose test." When warm, I could smell zero of anything near the tailpipe.

Driving/Idle/Maximum Allowable

NOx 9ppm/NA/960ppm
CO .02%/0%/.65% driving; .84% idle
HC 6ppm/4ppm/88ppm driving; 110ppm idle

Nice. Those are excellent numbers--so good that I'm wondering if the catalytic converter has been replaced. 9ppm NOx?!

I ran regular 87 octane gas and gave it about a 12KM warmup prior. Nothing else special to pass. Oh, air control door is blocked to cool air only.
