Na wouldnt work with the varex i put a standard exshaust back on when i passed my noise test , then just put the varex back on , The DECC Is very by the books , good thing is once you have passed keep the paperwork they give you with you at all times so theyeve got you on record , mabye hellp you out in the future ..

ahh i see

yeh i was gonna go back to them with a stock exhaust on and then come back and put back my varex

i would recommend the varex if u haven't already been defected...i think i got a few cops off my tail b4 when i pressed the button

but he didn't pick up it was a varex

i closed it and unplugged it and everything

went there and did test

and he did sound test

he said i passed

but it seems so unlikely that such a big tip only blows 86

then when he hoisted it up

he looked inside and said therse sumthin blocking it

i told him its permanent

and he said its not that easy, because sum1 can just unscrew it and its off kinda thing

but yeh

campelltown guys good guy

he told me i can take out my intercooler and i wont have to go epa

rather than saying...i have to go epa b4 giving me a chance

what year model is your car? cause im pretty sure the legal limit is actually 91db

guys my defect was cleared 3 months ago

what im saying is it got ticked to go to an AUVIS (i.e. blue slip) but i didnt go to the campbelltown place or the place in granville i went to a place in moorebank, and thats what my question was about when do you have to go to granville or campbelltown (when you get an epa defect?) not from the coppers?

but anyway the legal limmit is 90db but they permitt up to 95db (so that exhaust shops dont go broke etc)

that's stupid hmm so you just get a letter to go to the DECC but I don't understand why I didn't get this letter?? Does everyone or just a select few - or does it have to do with if the copper that smacks u a defect if he notifies the EPA ?

    • Yea I could, but it is amusing how shit a stock seat and belt are
    • Just to be clear, there were no lights or codes when the hiccups were occurring. Also nothing noticeable in the cars' braking. It brakes fine and the dash is clear. I only made the connection when it did throw a code and suddenly, despite the lights, it felt great again. 
    • Yeah they are sliders and this was in my head before I worked out it was the speed sensor.
    • Ok so we have a smoking gun.  A few weeks ago I had to replace a speed sensor that I'd fit incorrectly. I replaced the sensor and everything was fine with no lights or codes thrown any longer.  When I was doing some more bedding in yesterday I got ABS and traction control lights again and, considering when this happens those things are disabled, the pedal went back to normal with smooth braking and no hiccups.  The codes thrown are for the same speed sensor that I replaced. When I looked at the sensor I took out it looks like the tip of the sensor is damaged. So whatever happened to it, perhaps it has damaged the magnetic ring on the bearing (that I only replaced the other week). I'll get my boroscope in the hole where the sensor goes and see if there is any damage in there. Hopefully just the tip of the sensor is in there and the bearing is fine. 🤞🏻  It's worth noting also that the pedal hiccup happens more often and for longer periods now and totally goes away when the codes are thrown again which happens usually after 5 or so minutes of driving. Love all your help here as usual guys, thanks!
