Hello, My 2004 CTT is throwing some codes, and needs repair work prior to inspection. Would be great if I can find a good shop that is also NYS inspection station. Anyone? Thanks in advance, Jeff

Yes, I do understand, it's pretty much the same here in NY, but with a $450 threshold. Thinking I might just be better off finding a reliable local shop willing to perform just the work necessary to clean up the codes. Thanks again, Jeff

No, of course not. But I'm not looking for anyone to let things slide. Rather, I'm simply looking for an honest inspection station that will fail me, perform some actual related work (to a $ limit) and then fail me again if necessary, in order to issue a perfectly legal DMV waiver. Appreciate all the info you've provided... Jeff

Hi JFP, A nearby shop found these codes: 507, 2187 (x2), P0011 and a turbocharger overboost (don't have the code handy). I’ve since installed my own OBD scanner (today) and have so far gotten 2187 (2x) and P0011 (pending), but the CEL is already lit up even before all monitors have had enough time to reset as "emission ready," so I have NO "window of opportunity." Had other repair work performed in the last couple of months when mechanic advised of multiple vacuum leaks -- would have to pull intake manifold, looking at lots of work to be done. I'm simply not financially able to proceed with all that at this time (contrary to what I've done in the past), and likely selling once I move, so just trying to get through the year. Thanks, Jeff

Hi All, Anyone know of a NYS inspection station around Long Island willing to write a DMV Waiver? My 2004 955 CTT will NOT pass (have OBD scanner, CEL turns on before all monitors are even ready!). Moving onto the city in six months, and I will likely sell her then; unable to do major repairs, but I need to be on the road for the time being. Very frustrating. I’ve been to a couple of my local stations, and they absolutely refuse to issue a waiver, claiming they’ll be audited asap if they do. I’m not asking for anything illegal, and I’m willing to pay the $450 or so to attempt some work as required to satisfy NYS. Help, anyone? Inspection expires end of this month (Feb ’20), so ANY suggestions sincerely appreciated. Thanks so much, Jeff
