Arrjo,

the problem isn't getting it done, the problem is getting it done and getting away with it. The Swiss can be funny about these things sometimes.


You won't get away with it:
Because your exhaust gas is tested every 2yrs by your servicing garage and then you get that "exhaust" certificate sticker slapped on your screen usually at the rear. No valid sticker and you'll face a hefty fine plus an immediate test from Plod.

Plus depending on which Kantone you live in your FL2 will have to pass it's exhaust gas test as part of it's vehicle "Prufung" every 3yrs, but in our Kantone the waiting time for the MOT is currently circa 5yrs.



You have to "wait" for an MOT Question Confused ______________________

YEP
MOT's in Switzerland are carried out by the Kantone authorities not private garages - no cheating or quick fixes Shocked

They will send you a letter for the appointment date - you can accept or try and arrange a date to suit you - ha ha.

Then you turn up, hand the keys over and then wait for the result. Pass then pay the fee, fail then pay the fee and you are given a list of failures and a date by which they must be fixed and to represent vehicle for re test - and yes youz pay yet another fee Laughing
