He says `s been doing this for 5 years. If I remember correctly from his earlier posts he took the car to local shops for diagnostics and even some repair was attempted to fix this with no result but he got a couple thousands shorter. If it was me, I would fix it myself, but that`s me. For someone who can`t fix it on their own I can understand that he wants to keep using the car as long as it runs instead of keep taking the car from one shop to another. What I don`t see is whether this is a permanent problem or it just occurs every once in a while. If it`s permanent what I suggested won`t work. But if the issue does not trigger a code right after the readiness cycle is done it can be smogged.
