Finally, How To Stop Getting Defected!

[DRD-00F]

My seats are ADR approved and allowed to be installed in the car. All the engine modifications meet ADR standards.

Try telling that to the plod. Anything shiny or different and the only course of action for a police officer is to defect.

An engineers report will hopefully be enough to stop them from issueing an unecessary defect.

But if you have illegal things on your car, then there's nothing that can help you...

My2c

had a gtt with fmic piping that I sprayed black & pod filter + ssqv bov that came with the car, (I heat shielded the pod) , hks hi power silent exhaust etc etc

never got around to getting engineers cert. for my mods...

pulled over twice in the 2 years I had it, once at an RBT & once by the operation taipan car when I was driving along the great western

both times asked to pop the bonnet, both times asked if I had an engineers certificate for my mods which the answer was obviously no, both times let off on a warning

case in point someone at work at the time had a gtst with comparable mods & an engineers cert. still Got canaried

I didn't know how extensive his mods were or who did his engineers cert.

But I'd say it more comes down to the attitude of the officer & your own attitude as well

as others have said engineers certificate can help but not a guarantee
