So, John C, its an emissions thing - so if you go for mot you will have to remove blanking plates? And what if you are stopped for one of those random emission tests?

No need to remove plates as the EGR system relies on a number of ECU signals to operate which don't operate under MOT test operations. You should have no problems passing the emissions test with blanking plates fitted Wink Faultmate MSV2 EXTREME

tommy's solution is a common short-term one. Unsure of it's long-term viability (galvanic reaction?).
