OFT and inspection
Going to the dealer tomorrow for inspection on my car. Do I have to flash the car back to stock tune or can I leave my tune and get it done? Any feedback is appreciated.

I would flash back to stock just in case they decide to update your ECU or something.

Unless the dealer is doing the inspection for free, you could just go to any old state inspection place.

Well I got a call from the dealership about my car's inspection being expired at the end of the month. They proceeded to tell me that I must schedule an appointment with them to get it inspected. Im pretty sure in NY we have to get our car's inspected each year. So I am going to get it done by a local shop I just have a full tank of e85 that I dont want to waste. Do I really need to flash to stock?

also, flashing back to stock with E85 in the tank would undoubtedly kick on a check engine light which would fail inspection

Is NY also OBD2? PA/NJ I know are OBD2 scans and I think if you are not throwing a CEL then you should be good to go?

You're probably already done with the inspection, but until your car is 2 model years old, the only NY State inspection they do is a safety inspection. No smog systems check. After it hits 2 years, the smog inspection is done via OBDII so as long as your ECU isn't throwing any CEL's and the smog sensors are returning OK statuses, you'll pass. No visual or sniffer test on the newer cars.

NY is OBD2 but only after two model years...so a 2013 car is still under two years and only gets a safety inspection; lights, seatbelts, tires, brakes
