Proposal to correct inconsistencies in the time between the measurement of the end temperature and the end of the Type 1 test at 23°C for the ATCT family criterion check and in the f_jDyno force calculation.

Proposal to add assembly plant(s) to the approval information document.

Proposal for changes to the draft amendments to the 05, 06, and 07 series per the following justifications:

1. In GRPE-86-12, the introduction of SAE J 1979-2 was proposed for Series 05, 06 and 07 of Regulation No. 83. Due to the different structure of Series 05 and 06 compared to 07, this proposal was not adopted. This proposal introduces the new standard to Series 05 and 06 and aligns the standards with Series 07.
2. The standards used for transmission of OBD information are maintained by international standardisation bodies (ISO, SAE). These standardisation body have to be informed.
3. Alignment of wording between the first sentence of paragraph 3.2.1.2. (“ambient or engine temperatures”) and the second sentence, where “or engine” was missing to avoid misunderstanding and ambiguity. Engine temperature is sometimes used as a substitute for ambient temperature. In this case, the engine temperature is evaluated once after a longer engine shut off phase. Only in this case an approval is necessary, as this is the only case, where an OBD monitor is disabled for the complete trip.
4. Align Paragraph 6.5.1.3. with GTR No. 15 to avoid ambiguity.

Proposal to harmonize the requirements of the 00, 01, 02 and 03 series of amendments to UN R154 based on the following justifications:

1. Correction of a wrong reference. In Paragraph 3. the functional requirements for the OBD system are included. Paragraph 4. describes the requirements relating to type-approval including the provisions for deficiencies.
2. For Series 02 and 03, SAE J 1979-2 was allowed as a standard for the transmission of OBD relevant information. ISO 14229 was removed from the list of allowed standard. This proposal aligns series 00 and 01 with series 02 and 03.
3. The standards used for transmission of OBD information are maintained by international standardisation bodies (ISO, SAE). The standardisation body maintaining the affected standard has to be informed.
4. Alignment of wording between the first sentence of paragraph 3.2.1.2. (“ambient or engine temperatures”) and the second sentence, where “or engine” was missing to avoid misunderstanding and ambiguity. Engine temperature is sometimes used as a substitute for ambient temperature. In this case, the engine temperature is evaluated once after a longer engine shut off phase. Only in this case an approval is necessary, as this is the only case, where an OBD monitor is disabled for the complete trip.
5. The OBD requirements for Diesel engines in Paragraph 3.3.4 of Annex C5 are limited to Level 1A. The requirements in paragraphs 6.3. (“Failure modes to be tested”) and 6.4. (“OBD system test”), are not limited to Level 1A. This proposal corrects this.
6. Align Paragraph 6.5.1.3. with GTR No.15 to avoid ambiguity.
7. Alignment with Series 01/03. Those allow the use of alternative preconditioning
   methods for Level 2.

Background: Manufacturers design OBD monitoring conditions and functionalities for market specific driving conditions. Reliable monitors need enable conditions, which run the OBD monitors under circumstances, where failure detection works properly. Those enable conditions are not for all monitors represented by a three-phase WLTC, e.g. some monitors require higher load conditions. For those monitors alternative preconditioning methods are necessary.

Proposal for corrections and clarifications to the amendments in WP.29/2022/41/Rev.1 based on GRPE/2021/21 addressing particle number emissions, including handling of electric vehicles and Conformity of Production.

Proposal for corrections and clarifications to the amendments in WP.29/2022/42/Rev.1 based on GRPE/2021/21 addressing particle number emissions, including handling of electric vehicles and Conformity of Production.

Proposal of amendments to promote harmonization, legal certainty, and environmental protection in the 08 series of amendments.

This proposal introduces the new Utility Factor (UF) approach proposed in the Euro 6e emissions type-approval legislation. In addition, as a result of the application of the new tyre labelling Regulation (EU) 2020/7401, this proposal introduces a revised format of the table with tyre energy efficiency classes according to rolling resistance coefficients (RRC), in-line with the format proposed in the Euro 6e emissions type-approval legislation.

The current format of the type approval mark illustrated in Annex A3 is not consistent with the requirements of Section 5.2.1, which may unintentionally lead to approval marks not being issued or accepted in the correct format. The proposed amendment to Annex A3 aligns the illustrated approval marks with the requirements of Section 5.2.1 and Schedule 4 of Revision 3 of the 1958 Agreement. This proposal is available with tracked changes in a pdf version and in a .docx format.

Additional information concerning the 08 series of amendments pursuant to UN R154 (WLTP) and work on real-driving emissions testing.

Proposal based on the 07 series of amendments to remove elements which covered by UN R154 (WLTP), to include references to the draft UN Regulation on Real Driving Emissions (RDE), and to update In-Service Conformity (ISC) requirements for the purposes of establishing regional type approval equivalence. The proposal is incomplete. The EC expects to provide missing elements before the 87th GRPE session in January 2023. This document is available with mark-ups in pdf version and in docx format.

Proposal to harmonize the requirements of the 06 and 07 series of amendments, align with UN R48 wording to ensure consistent type-approval test conditions with the introduction of the 08 series of amendments (to introduce the possibility to switch OFF rear position lamps and other lamps when ambient light conditions outside the vehicle are above 7,000 lux in order to avoid unnecessary fuel consumption). The aim of the document is to reach consensus to enable adoption of a proposal during the next GRPE session (88th session in June 2023).

Proposal to harmonize the requirements for the determination of CO2, fuel, and electric energy consumption of the discharge requirement for OVC-HEV with an operating mode switch with its stop criterion and the preconditioning requirement with the 01 series of amendments to UN R101 and 06 and 07 series of amendments of UN R83 (Annex 14, provisions for emissions test procedures for HEV). The intention is to reach consensus towards approving a proposal during the 88th (June 2023) GRPE session.
