well numbers are close so it cant be to bad, o2 sensors might need cleaning or to be replaced.

Did you warm the car up before you went? always make sure the motor is running warm and the cats are heated.

Buy emissions for dummies (some random crap that pathetically worked for me).

Check plugs/wires for misses ect.

Dont you have to pass to get it renewed? at least thats how it was when i used to go

Writing in another county sounds so much easier to me.

I had a NoX failure on my Collora in January. Info gathering lead me to think cats and/or EGR. So I go to the local parts store and the guy said tune it up and dump two bottles of Heat in the tank right before you test it. Get it hot and it will pass. Sure thing, she passed no problem.

Just a thought. I hate emissions testing.....
