Yeah, I am with Bill on this one. My mom's 15 year old car (not a Volvo) failed inspection and the emmissions numbers were horrible. In NJ, they give you this huge diagram of a generic emmissions system, and your head can spin with thoughts of paying someone to go through and find the right part. We replaced the oil, oil and air filters, and the pcv - went through with flying colors. OK - this is a different car - but doing some simple things (such as cleaning the throttle body on our cars) may likely get you through. As another poster pointed out, regular maintenance is key. Good luck, Don
