You cannot reset the ECU to pass smog. The whole drive cycle needs to run for your car to pass smog. The newer cars now sent the VIN when you plug in.
The new rules were negotiated with auto manufacturers who want their customers to have a good consumer experience (easy smog).
The benefit is that new cars are perfectly clean, expect for the CO2 of course. Compare to the polluting old cars of past.[/quote]
LOL, who would have thunk it! Could it be that the “auto manufacturers'” lobbyists in Sacramento were successful in getting legislation passed which would have the eventual effect of consumers purchasing more new cars more often out of “presumed” necessity??
