Check your codes and post what you find. Was the codes cleared or battery dead shortly before you went for inspection? Mods?

I am sure you could probably remove those codes with a programer.

Which O2's, the front? Don tuned my car also, be interested to hear what codes you have. I have Autotap and the new version will run an emissions test, my car passes. Of course, my inspection is next month so we will see how well it works with the type of luck I have .

you may have to drive the car for at least 170 miles for the sensors to reset in order to pass emissions test for inspection. In NY we have the same testing, if your battery was changed, went dead or was disconnected you will have to drive it for the 170+ miles for the sensors to reset.
