The OBD thresholds limits for vehicles that are type approved according to the emission limits set out in Table 1 of Annex I of the Regulation (EC) No 715/2007 are contained in the following table.

Euro 5 OBD threshold limits

		Reference mass(RW)(kg)	Mass of carbon monoxide		Mass of non-methane hydrocarbons		Mass of oxides of nitrogen		Mass of particulates
Positive ignition particulate mass standards apply only to vehicles with direct injection engines
Until the dates set out in Article 17 a PM threshold limit of 80 mg/km shall apply to vehicles of categories M and N with a reference mass greater than 1 760 kg
Includes M₁ vehicles that meet the ‘special social needs’ definition of Regulation (EC) No 715/2007
Key: PI = Positive Ignition, CI = Compression Ignition
		Reference mass(RW)(kg)	(CO)(mg/km)		(NMHC)(mg/km)		(NO_x)(mg/km)		(PM)(mg/km)
Category	Class		PI	CI	PI	CI	PI	CI	PI^f1	CI^f2
M	—	All	1 900	1 900	250	320	300	540	50	50
N₁ ^f3	I	RW ≤ 1 305	1 900	1 900	250	320	300	540	50	50
	II	1 305 < RW ≤ 1 760	3 400	2 400	330	360	375	705	50	50
	III	1 760 < RW	4 300	2 800	400	400	410	840	50	50
N₂	—	All	4 300	2 800	400	400	410	840	50	50
