I cannot guarantee you will get results like mine. Here is what worked for me in Mannheim with a 120k Blazer, mostly original....

1. After failing for multiple reasons, take her to a car wash that has the undercarriage sprayers 2. Proceed directly to nearest inspection station 3. After they tell you they refuse to inspect the ride while wet, inform them you will be waiting 4. If it works, send the Ninja some Weihenstephaner

I can't stand those guys. Make sure there is absolutely no rust before inspections too.

LOL! Ninja, from what I understand, Mannheim, H-berg, and Bamberg are the hardest to get your vehicle thru....

I forgot that you're out in Germany...... the truck might be a little different setup than ours to meet emissions/inspections out there... I'm stumped....and I bet there aren't a lot of people out there that are familiar with a Dodge Ram... lol

So, just picked the truck up...no leaks and the shop manager only charged me half of what it should have cost....so I am not complaining...
