I'm sure I read somewhere that they were considering failing vehicles that had been remapped. Quite how they'd be able to do this for ever type of vehicle I don't know. Maybe that's why it's not been pursued.

"There will be quite a few changes to the MOT test next year but checking the mapping or "chipping" of ECUs is not included. A visual check to see if the emission control equipment has been modified is included in Directive 2010/48/EU but has not been considered a valid inspection as most are hidden under covers or behind trim etc and it is not always obvious that they have been modified (e.g electronically)..

I do not know of any future intention to include it but that is not to say that it will not happen at some time in the future."
