wtf? failed the emissions test!

If you unplugged the battery yesterday and haven't put enough drive time in since, your ECU is still in 'check' mode.
It doesn't matter that your CEL isn't on. Give it a few more miles, a few more heat cycles.....it'll be fine.
If you have a straight pipe with an O2 sensor directly in the exhaust flow that's seeing too much heat, you'd have gotten a CEL a bit ago. If you don't have it spaced out using a splarkplug spacer, do it....the carbon build up on the O2 will kill the sensor sooner than later. Those sensors are expensives.

Interesting shouldn't it just do a test and confirm back that its working? Must say I am shocked it would take that long for such a smart car to confirm if there is any issues. Doesn't there have to be something pending in the ECU for them to read info? I thought they pull codes and nothing more so if no pending codes or codes period you pass??
