Default Couple of things as I went to get my inspection sticker...

1. As I'm getting money at the ATM, guy in a Honda Prelude says "hey man, your Audi is sick! I love it" First time someone said my car is sick hahaha. Normally it's nice or very clean.

2. Guy at inspection station said "man, beautiful car...just a shame those Germans give you such crappy rear brakes! Look at how tiny they are!"

3. As I was walking out of Nellios, I hear this loud car going down Bedford St. I look up and see a Black B6 USP, tinted, with what sounded like a non-res exhaust system, perhaps even catless? It sounded pretty mean and loud. You were going by the Shell station by the time I looked up. Anyone here?

4. Now all cars are tested for emissions by OBD-II port, not on the dyno machine. So no more exemption for 4WD/AWD cars! Must have been a recent thing as it wasn't like that last year when I got my sticker.

Default Checking via OBD-II has always been required, it just often isn't done

That was supposed to be done on all drivetrains, not just 4/AWD. The 4/AWD cars just have an exemption from the dyno part of the test.

Default I know the ODB-II thing has always been done. They do it every year to my car but now they

check emission parts with it. There are new sections on the report where there wasn't last year or the previous year.
