Simple non pretentious smog testing facility where I’ve been doing smog checks for the last eight years. Prices are slightly below other competitors.

Called in to see if there was a wait, owner said no and just come on in. I did and the experience was great. He serviced my car right away. I needed a smog check and although I didn’t have my dmv paperwork on me, he was able to complete the service within minutes. Simple place but it gets the job done! Reasonable price as well!

This guy was awesome!!! $ 20 cheaper than the place that ranked above him. I got quoted $ 40, he charged me $ 40. He was super nice, friendly and quick. I was in and out in under 20 min. Highly recommend and I will def come back and recommend to people. Such a nice guy, small business and much better priced than other people I called. Plus I passed!!! Whhooooottt!

This guy is awesome. Called after work at 4:30pm to ask the price of a smog and if they were open on Saturdays. The guy gave me a great price (beat the popular place in El Cajon $ 20 off price) and asked if I could come in that evening. I was surprised he would take it that late most car places don’t. Got there a little bit before 5 and was out by 5:20, certificate to DMV and now I don’t have to do this errand on a Saturday!!!

To update the previous review, this station is situated right next to O’Reilly’s auto parts (formerly Kragen). This is the second time that I have been here and the gentleman in charge is efficient and friendly. Both times I have been here my ride has been serviced in less than 15 minutes. I enjoy giving my business to locals and his professionalism stands out.

I needed to find a test only smog station in order to complete my car registration. A1 was recommended to me by my mechanic, so I decided to try it. I had a great experience there, he was able to get me in and on my way in no time. He was also very knowledgeable concerning how to properly test the car (operating temp, etc).
If your looking for a good smog station specializing in test only, I would highly recommend this place. He knows what he’s doing, and his prices are very competitive.
