Default catlytc blowby detected

Hey guys

My car won't pass smog

there is a misfire deteced, which im sure are coil packs, when i replaced two, the mech said that the other two were gonna go soon

the second one is catalytic blowby detected, im pretty sure that this is a new cat, but there's also a chance that its not...

i am going to get the code numbers as soon as i can, but for now does anybody recognize this problem?

it just might be a side effect for your misfires… clear codes and drive on new ignition coils for a while… u should be ok its always a good idea to change all 4 coils… especially after 2 already failed ..
