I have a 2008 Suzuki XL7. I had an emmision test yesterday and 3 not ready's appeared on the report. 1) o2 sensor 2) evaporative system 3) catalytic converter. What would cause these to read not ready and how can I correct the problem? Thank You Kevin

That means someone either cleared the computer or disconnected the battery recently. The car has to be driven through every scenario that is monitored to test every system before they reset themselves. NEVER clear a computer before going for inspection. It will always fail.
