Default My car failed the CO2 (pollution) emission test?

Ok so I just got my car's CO2 emission test done (which is a compulsion to get done every 3 months here in Delhi, India) and the guy told me that there was 2% more emission than the acceptable levels and that I must get it checked or the car might breakdown. Well, I am going to take it to the service center later today but I was just wondering if anyone knew the probable cause(s) for it?

It is a 4 years and 10 months old Fiat Palio 1.2L. This is the first time that I have faced this problem. However, about a month or two ago I had faced a problem where I felt the pick up of the car wasn't at its best; I got it checked and they found the spark plugs were all worn out, hence I got them replaced. The ride did become a little better after that but I still feel its not all the way smooth.

Anyone got any ideas of what might be going on over here?

Cheers.

Rofl, so confused. I am screencaping this.

In all seriousness, sounds like your blinker fluid needs to be replaced.

Are you a Dell tech support guy by any chance? Or a sneaky lil spammer? My vote goes to you peddling Nike's and ambulances by the end of the week. ****** seriously, who tries to sell ambulances on an audi forum, that n tow trucks, I lol'd, dunno if anyone else saw it.
