I was reading on the End Wrench website an archive from spring 98 that states that all Subaru full-time and AWD vehicles are exempt from the two-wheel dynomometer testing for state emmisions inpections. Is this still true? I ask because the last time my 95 Legacy was inspected in MA two years ago (MA requires the emissions test every other year), the mechanic (not at a dealer) put the car through its emission tests in neutral, not simply the idle test that is mentioned on endwrech. I'm due for emissions inspection again in April and I'll be going back to the same garage. Will I be able to mention this to the mechanic or has the law (in MA) changed?
