Instead of the reference fuels specified in Annex IX to this Regulation, the reference fuels defined by the Coordinating European Council for the Development of performance Tests for Lubricants and Engine Fuels (hereinafter ‘CEC’), for petrol fuelled engines in CEC documents RF-01-A-84 and RF-01-A-85 may be used”.

In this way it can even be argued that if SOLVIT is one of the tools to oil the engine of the single market, a well-functioning SOLVIT holds the key to unleashing the potential of the single market and increasing growth.

22. Calls on national authorities to show no tolerance towards so-called ‘vehicle testing optimisation’, whereby practices such as the over-inflation of tyres, the removal of side-mirrors, taping up of gaps between body panels to reduce aerodynamic drag, the use of special engine and gearbox lubricants that are otherwise not used in engines, the removal of auxiliary equipment such as stereos, and testing at the maximum allowed ambient temperature are common, thus unacceptably accentuating the difference between in-lab testing and the consumer’s experience on the road;

These emissions can be significantly reduced, however, if synthetic oil is used for lubricating the engine instead of mineral oil.
