Uhm, they should have given you a slip that told you why it failed..... atleast up in canada at emissions testing they do. The slip will tell you the acceptalbe #'s , and will tell you your #'s. It could be anything, thats why you get the slip. Before I bought my car the dealer asked if I wanted to take it to get aircared, I let him do it and he had to replace the catalytic converter on his coin rather than mine. So get those #'s and we will be able to help you out.

You only put 2000 miles on in a year? Sounds like it needs an Italian tuneup.
