Called the same day to get information. He was very nice and was able to get my appointment. Paid the price I was quoted and was out in less than ten minutes. If only I knew about this place sooner. Smog star station certified as well just in case you needed it like myself.

I was in a time crunch, between getting my car fixed at the auto shop, then having to get smog check for registration… Andy’s test center was a great support in the whole process. Turned out that my car failed the smog check the first time because the battery/​computer was disconnected during the repair process, but he didn’t charge me for the failed test. Told me to drive on the highway for an hour daily for a week and come back and get the test again. Did as I was told and sailed through the second test. (Phew!) He was also very helpful with out of state versus in state smog test requirements. Will come back to this location in the future.

Just went here to get a smog check on my BMW. Andy got it finished in about 10 minutes. Didn’t say much but that’s okay with me since he just went to work on my car. Was only $ 40 or $ 1.50 more if you pay with credit card

I would give more stars if there are. Came in this morning, Andy did a complete inspection and failed my car. Explain why it failed and return my money. He told me what part I need to change to pass the smog per the diagnostic and said he will schedule me in asap once I fixed the problem. A few hours later, I bought the part and replaced it myself and came back. It passes with flying colors. I paid him and ask if he would take a tip for his trouble and he said, no need, happy to help. I will be recommending my family and friends to come for sure. I’ve been going here for 6 yrs. and will be coming every two yrs when a the smog is due. Thanks again, Andy. You’re D man!

Super honest guy who won’t refer you to anybody. for the repairs you need because he’s not looking for kickbacks from other shops.
Pretty rare n the automotive business when some has you by the balls and doesn’t act like a douchebag!

I used to get my 99 Acura TL get smog checked here b/​c the recommended by a friend. His price is fair with other speaking Vietnamese customers. However 2 years later I took my 99 Jeep there he jack up the price after put the car in test station. $ 65! I was piece but try to keep my cool and ask him about it and he said «SUV cost more» Will never go back there again.

Nice guy. Honest. Great service. I have used him 3 times now & I would use him again in a heart beat. This is not a repair station or I have something funky deal with my car can we just ignore the after market stuff on my car guy. He is straight up honest. If the car has an issue, he tells you & gives you your $$ back. The last time I was there I had an «engine light» issue with my truck. I got it fixed, went back to Andy’s, he recognized me, he smog’d my truck quickly & it passed. I left a happy camper.

He’s a very friendly guy and quick at his job. If they are backed up he will request that you make an appointment or will tell you when exactly to come back. No BS here… just smog checks!

Quick and friendly service. Came here last year. Will come again next year. No wait on a Thursday afternoon. Bring cash or check if you want to avoid the 1.50 debit fee.

I came here a couple of times for my smog tests. One time, my old car came out a «gross polluter» and Andy gave me back my money and and told me if I get it fixed, he’ll take the money when he retests it.
I like this place because the owner is polite and honest. He gives me the price up front so no surprises.

Please learn your profession.
Andy is polite and courteous, but fails in the knowledge department. I admit I don’t know everything there is to know about California smog regulations — that’s why I rely on professional smog-​test centers to know what to do.
I have a 1983 CJ7 that I converted to fuel injection in 2001. All parts are CARB legal; the sticker with the number is clearly and legibly affixed where it should be. This has not been an issue in the past, yet after 35 minutes Andy refused to finish the test, stating he did not have enough information to continue and claiming that he had already received a pricey fine for testing vehicles incorrectly.
Half an hour later, a similar test-​only shop was able to easily cross-​reference the CARB number with my vehicle and perform the test.
