Firstly youve posted this in the Auris section and not the Avensis...lol

My dad had an Avensis and his too failed the mot on the emissions.

He had someone test it for him and the cat was at fault but also something to do with the engine. I think it was summat do to with engine using too much oil..

Its been a couple of years now since this but I cant 100% remember what indeed the problem was...
