Re: SER1 Not a series problem, more modern Td5

As far as I know the TD5 is not fitted with a catalytic converter. Even if 
it was, in the UK at least this is not part of the MOT for any diesel 
vehicle so can be removed.

The TDi was, or at least the 300 TDi, so I removed mine on a 300TDi 
Discovery when fitting a complete straight through Stainless Steel exhaust 
system from Rimmer Bros a few years ago. Rimmer do not make a SS front pipe 
with a cat, only a replacement mild steel version. So even though I removed 
the cat, my system was 200 GB pounds cheaper and more efficient.

Hello folks, mainly from UK
Aftermarket should offer a catalysator-kit for upgrading the TDI and the 
early and lateTd5-engines from EURO I up to EURO III. Who knows something 
about that, which manufacturer?
If itīs not only a rumour I īll  save taxes up to 500? p.a. with my early 
Td5 Defender.
Maybe some of the english members know a bit more!
Thanks in advance
Uli
