Might have to find a friend in the MOT trade... I will say no more
That or try the Bosch lambda sensor to see if it helps
How did the remap go?

What sport cat did you use? Could it be possible it isn't the best quality or a malfuctioned one?
Do you have a graph printout?

It's a top quality one. Same make as the one on my mates liner.
Appraemtly it's either the sensor gone again or a dodgy connection in the wire. I think it's probably the latter as it runs fine and stays off for a while?
Yeah I have a printout I'll post later. Figures aren't great but they used a learning map so over the next 200 miles it will have increased. Currently I was 88bhp when bought after zorst and panel I was on 92.3bhp now I'm on 98.3bhp. Hopefully it will be over 100bhp once it's learnt over the next 200

I could have told you that 
My 180 passed last year with it on.
I think this maybe changing soon though.

From 1st April ... although I have read there will be a period of grace where you will pass but it's an advisory .. next time it will fail. That's going to be the same for all warning lights.
And no good taking the bulbs out or taping them over, they have to work during the startup test cycle!
