Just did a smog check on my 95 Corolla with 200k today, the smog guy had to do it twice because he said the first time failed.
Numbers are very low on HC and CO, single digit ppm but the NOX are very high (around 500ppm) and near the limit. This is both for 15mph and 25mph so I think there must be either a vacuum leak, a clogged EGR, a plugged fuel filter, a leaking PCV, or a cracked header.
I'll have 2 years to fix it and since it passes I'll just replace / clean as much as I can as preventive measure, like new fuel filter, new PCV, clean the EGR, check for vacuum leak, etc. Make sense?
