So my Pathfinder failed its biannual smog test the other day. The truck runs great and does not run hot or have any performance issues whatsoever (aside from only having 150hp to push around two tons). Before the test the engine was at full operating temp and had been driven pretty hard by me on the trip to the shop.
It failed because NOX was too high at 15mph
MAX 350 ppm measured 609 ppm
passed at 25mph
MAX 527 ppm measured 252 ppm
I included a picture because I know some people are going to ask about other readings.
Going to remove and clean the EGR valve this weekend because I have never had it out.
any help would be greatly appreciated
