NE Philly, surrounding areas: Need AWD ODB1 emissions facility - TriStateTuners.com :: Home of Tristate Auto Enthusiast

**Got Insulin?** · 05-23-2009, 02:49 PM

So, the TSi is almost on the road again, and I'm going to need inspection for it ASAP, but of the 15 or so spots I've called, nobody has access to an AWD dyno for emissions testing. The car is orgionally from DE, but I never got around to having it inspected while it was on the road, so ideally I would like somebody close to the surronding area of NE Philly. If not, I could have it towed, but I'd rather not resort to that.

Anyone have any idea where I could start?

If I'm correct for emissions on an AWD car they only do an idle test. Unless you need something further with OBD1 or for personal results you should have no issues at any inspection station. I've had my car inspected at the gas station up the street that definitely doesn't have an AWD roller.

if you cannot disable the awd system then a two-speed idle test is performed.

Thanks for all the quick replies, fellas. I was told that it had to be dyno'd if it was ODB1, but I guess that was incorrect. Thanks for the insight.
