Garage which can check the board computer of the Elise MK 1?

Bericht door Kirstin »

Hi there,

my little Elli failed the MOT for the third time due to emmission. We replaced the spark plugs, the catalyst and the Lambda sensor and she still failed. I believe we would need the board computer checked. Does anyone know a garage close to Hasselt capable of doing so?

Many thanks!

Hello, I'm from Kermt near Hasselt. There's also Lotus Lecler in Luik, but you'll have to speak French ... Rue de L'Yser 65, 4430 Luik

Probably best for you is FKM http://www.lotuscars.be/ Onze Lieve Vrouwstraat 10 - 2600 Berchem (Antwerpen)

Hi Kirstin,

Serge Power is a local garage in hasselt specialised in sports cars. It's not a lotus dealer but a lot closer for a quick check up.

Why did the car fail? Emissions test. One trick is to make sure the car is at temperature and perhaps an "enthousiastic" drive could help as well. Other cars have been known to fail because of that.

The on board computer should have a fairly standard interface and the codes will give you more ideas what to do next.

You mention mot so I'm assuming you're British?

Good luck in any case

Dirk

(I think that makes it 5 Elises in Hasselt? )
