Mines been MOT'd twice now with no cat and it has passed both times.
And before you say anything it was not done by passing the mot tester a few quid for a pass.

Reasons for Rejection -
3. A catalytic converter missing where one was fitted as standard |
Method of Inspection
3.On vehicles that qualify for a full cat emissions test, check the presence of the catalytic converter.
Don't think the diesels fall into the full cat emissions test category.
7.4 Exhaust Emissions - Compression Ignition

I've had
My cat took off my 2.0 hdi no difference at all, slight bit more responsive but that's all nothing with power, or noise, tbh it was worth it for the 70quid I got for it and 20 for the pipe weld lol

Should the internals of a 1.4 hdi cat be loose inside? Looks like mine is rolling around an blocking off the exhaust .. it has one flat side, which I assume should be down, but it rolls the wrong way up!!!
Hence lack of any power ...
UPDATE: Apparently, no it shouldn't ... spoke to a Citroen techie at local dealers. He's seen a few and the core should be a cylinder fitting the outer skin of the cat unit ... it's collapsed. So hammer and assorted weaponry it is ... this cat is getting an enema!
