My F355 (5.2) Berlinetta is currently without an MOT and with a specialist.
The car failed the MOT two years ago on emissions. That turned out to be something in the wiring loom, though I know not what exactly.
Failed again this year. CO is in the region of 6 and I believe as high as 10 but due to that clogging the filters on the emission testing equipment the MOT tester could not print the reading. That's at least 12x more than it should be :shocked:
It failed at all levels, idle and 2500-3000rpm. Not sure what the Hydrocarbons were but I think they too were high.
It's been on Ferrari SD1 and on the day it reported an open loop' on all four oxygen sensors. Since then a sensor was changed and made no difference (as kind of expected, from me anyway). The last time it was, I was lead to believe an earth (wiring loom earth?) but am told not so this time.
So it seems the sensors are probably OK. They now said at idle the oxygen sensors are in 'closed loop' but when the engine is revved they go to 'open loop'.
Anyone any ideas that I can pass on? The specialist is pretty busy and not really had much time to spend on it, so I'm asking on the off chance
