In theory, it is possible to retrofit a Euro5 diesel to Euro6 but I've yet to find a single company in London (or otherwise) that is willing to do this on vans under 3.5t.

Will you have to pay the low emissions charge?
Use our ULEZ checker to find out if your vehicle is subject to ULEZ charges. Simply enter your number plate into the Honest John ULEZ checker to see if you will have to pay to enter the London Ultra Low Emission Zone.

Would changing the engine in my Citroen Relay to a 2.2-litre BlueHDi be possible and make it compliant with the London ULEZ?
I have a 2011 Land Rover Freelander 2 diesel. What can I do to get through London's Emissions. The car has EUR 4, and I think it has to be better than 6.
What is the situation with the ULEZ? Is it scheduled to come as far as the M25 in the spring of 2021? My car doesn't meet the ULEZ rules, what should I do?
