A STAR certification is a designation from the California Bureau of Automotive Repair (BAR) for smog stations that meet higher performance standards. It means our equipment is regularly tested, our technicians are highly trained, and we follow strict procedures. Many vehicles in California require a test at a STAR station. Choosing a STAR certified station like ours ensures your test is accurate and compliant with state regulations.

Our typical smog check is completed in 15 minutes or less. We pride ourselves on fast, efficient service to get you back on the road quickly. For pricing, we offer competitive rates starting at $39.99 for a standard smog check. The exact cost can vary based on your vehicle type (e.g., diesel, hybrid). We provide transparent pricing upfront with no hidden fees.

Please bring your vehicle's registration or renewal notice. That's typically all we need to look up your information in the state system. It's also a good idea to ensure your vehicle is in good running condition and that the "Check Engine" light is not on, as this can cause an automatic failure.
