Georgia Owners - been tested yet?

Just curious if anyone has had their emissions tested the correct way yet. In other words, has Georgia fixed their software problems which present our cars as 2-cylinder engines.

I ask because I'm 99% sure my catalytic converter is slagged and I want proof to take into my dealer. Judging by the bad smells coming from the tailpipes, my car would fail soundly.

Thanks,

- Eric H. in Marietta

I had to renew my tags recently. The test had to be done with the tail pipe sniffer rather than the OBDII port under the dash.

Actually, until the software bug is fixed in GA, you would probably be better off getting a waiver. See how this is handled on my previous post regarding the problem:
