Just took my car in to get emission. It failed. I asked the guy what could be wrong and he said he had no idea. I mean the car runs fine. I havent driven it for about two weeks and just barely started driving it again. It did shoot out some blue smoke when it was on the dyno. I think the cat is ok since the NOX rating looks fine.

15MPH
%CO2----15.0
%02------0.0
----------------
HC(PPM) MEASURED
102
-----------------
CO(%)
0.47
-----------------
NOX(PPM)
135

25MPH
%CO2----14.2
%02------0.0
----------------
HC(PPM) MEASURED
159 Fail Max Allowed 118
-----------------
CO(%)
1.64 Fail Max Allowed .54
-----------------
NOX(PPM)
709

If anyone knows what could be wrong or where to start that would be much appreciated. Thanks.

do the tuneup and make sure to get the engine good and warmed up. drive down the highway in 4th gear (3rd in the automatic) for a couple miles at 60+mph to get the CAT nice and hot and working 100%. when you go for the testing try to go at a time where you won't be idling for a long period before the test, if you do need to idle for a while hold a fast idle at about 1500 RPM.
