R50/53 Emissions!!!
Emissions!!!
On my 3rd visit to emissions testing, tech keeps telling me that the car is "not ready" and that I need to drive it more.
Anyone know how to activate these sensors so I can pass emissions? I know it can be done via tuning software on my laptop.

Thanks for the info
thanks for the info, its a bit different than what the tech told me but the hard part is finding a road w/o traffic and I had no idea I had to keep the car below 3000 rpm, this is my track car so that never happens even when I drive it around town!
cant I close the loop via software?

Talk with your tuner, who in this case I would presume to be Jan. He may have programmed out your secondary O2.
The car should be in closed loop after 190*, which doesn't take long to achieve in the summer months.

Your sig also says that the catalytic converter is deleted, which is required by law to pass an emissions test on a road registered vehicle.
Also, is your ECU still factory with tuning, or is it a ViPec setup? Normal scan tools don't work with ViPec, only ViPec software will read the ECU.
