2004 Honda Element Mileage: 65,000. My Element's check engine light is on and the car failed the smog check. I need to get this taken care of soon. What do you suggest I do?

Have your computer scanned for trouble codes and see if you have an o2 sensor or a mass air flow sensor that has failed. Once a sensor is dirty, it does not read the correct amount of air that passes by it and may give the computer false information regarding your engine management conditions.
