Exhaust inspection

[Wankie]

Hi all,

 

Anyone knows if i need to go for inspection again if I buy a 2nd hand muffler (LTA approved one with certification) or its just a case of bolt on & keep the cert in the car? Any help much appreciated. Thks!

suspect u may need to go to the inspection centre to have it certified for your car. better ring the inspection centre to confirm.

 

FYI, the LTA 'certification' is actually a letter which states explicitly the licence plate and owner of the car which has the exhaust installed. the letter is actually car-specific and so may not be transferrable (even it's of the same make and model)

the cert & muffler must b approved and for ur make and issued by lta for tat car alone.

FYI, 'certified' exhaust muffler(for eg remus) normally comes with manual and/or documents stating the specs of the exhaust and its compliance with int'l stds and maybe even a warranty card (if the local agent provides it).

 

the surest thing to check that the seller is selling u a certified (2nd hand) exhaust is ask for the LTA letter for the previous car. if not available, the manual/docs with the spec. should be sufficient (assuming u can verify that the manual/docs actually belong to the exhaust muffler)
