Do I need a STAR Certified Smog Check or a Regular Smog Check?
Your Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) registration renewal notice will explicitly state whether your vehicle must be inspected at a STAR station. This information is typically located at the top of your renewal letter.
What is a STAR Certified Smog Check Center?
STAR Certified Smog Check Centers meet higher performance standards established by the California Bureau of Automotive Repair (BAR). Some STAR stations are licensed to perform "Test-Only" inspections, while others are licensed as "Test & Repair" stations. Stations are required to post a sign displaying the specific services they are authorized to perform.
Who is responsible for the Smog Check when selling a vehicle?
When a vehicle is sold or transferred in California, the seller is legally responsible for obtaining a valid smog certificate prior to completing the sale. Additionally, when you bring an out-of-state vehicle into California, you must get a California smog certificate before completing your DMV registration.
How long does a Smog Test take?
The average Smog Inspection takes approximately 20 to 30 minutes to complete. Many centers accept walk-ins, but you can always call ahead to see if they take reservations to minimize your wait time.
What happens if my "Check Engine Light" is on?
If your Check Engine Light (or Service Engine Soon light) is illuminated, your vehicle will automatically fail the California Smog Inspection. We highly recommend having the issue diagnosed and repaired by a certified mechanic before paying for a smog check.
Which vehicles are exempt from a Smog Check in California?
Your vehicle does not require a smog inspection if it meets any of the following criteria:
Gasoline-powered vehicles manufactured in 1975 or older.
Gasoline-powered vehicles that are less than 8 model-years old (requires an annual smog abatement fee instead).
Electric vehicles.
Diesel-powered vehicles manufactured in 1997 and older, OR any diesel vehicle with a Gross Vehicle Weight (GVWR) of more than 14,000 pounds.
Natural gas-powered vehicles weighing over 14,000 pounds.
What do I need to bring with me to the station?
To help speed up the process, you should bring:
Your California DMV registration renewal notice.
A method of payment (cash, credit, or a valid discount coupon from our site).
Products to Pass a Smog Inspection
These items appeal directly to the "fear of failing" a smog check and target the exact systems checked during a California emissions test.
OBD2 Scanners / Code Readers: The most critical tool for a smog check seeker. In California, if a car has a check engine light on, it is an automatic failure. An OBD2 scanner lets users read codes and check their "Smog Monitor Readiness" status before paying for an inspection.
Emissions and Fuel System Cleaners: Drivers with older cars often look for an inexpensive additive to clean out carbon buildup and guarantee a lower emissions printout.
Many users fail a smog inspection due to basic mechanical upkeep or a bad gas cap. Offering these quick-fix items provides immense utility.
Replacement Gas Caps: A leaky, cracked, or missing gas cap will fail the California smog visual and pressure inspection. Drivers frequently look for a quick replacement to fix an EVAP system code.
