06 Smog Check

Here is the problem...

Went to get a smog right after I bought the mini and the results were not so bad. I failed the 15 mph NO (PPM). I was at 516 and you can have a max of 467. On the 25 mph for NO (PPM) I passed it was 308 and your allowed 754.

The entire test: HC(PPM) Co% no ppm
Test Rpm c02Meas 02Meas m a me m a me m a me
15mph 1842 14.92 0.18 61 4 1 0.54 0.01 0.00 467 16 516
25mph 1962 15.00 0.08 45 4 1 0.53 0.01 0.00 754 15 308

The tech guy said 02 sensor catalytic converter or fuel injection problem.
where do I start?

Check with the seller...in many states they are responsible (if it was a dealer).
any modifications done on the car you know of?

When I bought the car the ac was not working and took it to the dealer to fix it the same day I bought it, dealer took more than 30 days to fix the problem so seller is not answering any of my calls back.

I forgot to mention that I don't have any light in my dashboard like check engine.
I was reading that some of the cats needs to be warm before you run the smog check?
