Check emissions test is performed in the laboratory to confirm the results. And this process continues to repeat until you have obtained positive results. Many of the settings in the vehicle, have a great impact on CO2 emissions, and this requires attention to many systems that we are not typically connected to the classical emission test. For example: brake drag has a large impact on the variability of test results.

To ensure accurate measurements, laboratory compliance with stringent emission standards. For example, the test vehicle can be re-run once the temperature reaches the temperature of the car testing in the previous test. Naturally, the temperature in the garage, where cars are stored as carefully regulated and kept at 25 º Celsius.
