#1: Anti Pollution Fault Author: mike_bngs, Location: Wild West Yorkshire via ManchesterPosted: Wed Mar 11, 2015 3:23 pm ---- This warning has been flashing up for about three weeks, the engine light is on as result. However I am not loosing power or anything else, is this an MOT worry?

Until you get it to a garage with (ideally) peugeot specific diagnostics equipment then you'll never know what the fault is.
I don't think it can fail from having the engine light on, but if the fault is something to do with the emissions etc then it'll fail on that.

Not sure if it's only an advisory. It seems to have been one of those grey areas that VOSA keep on leaving.
The rules say that the warning lights on the dash must illuminate and then go out once the engine is running. Some people say that the examiner has to visually check that warning lights for electronic stability control, safety restraint systems, anti-lock braking systems and tyre pressure monitoring systems. No mention of the EML.
Some say that the EML is checked as on safety grounds a fault with the engine could create a hazard.
There is also the argument that if the EML is on due to an anti pollution fault, then it's likely that the car will fail on the emissions test anyway so the EML has no significance.
