What we test

Every vehicle the DMV can ask about.

Test-only means we inspect and certify — never repair — so there’s no upsell and no reason to fail you.

Cars & light trucks

Registration-renewal smog checks, directed or not, filed to the DMV the moment you pass.

Diesel, motorhome & RV

Plenty of room for diesels, motorhomes and heavy-duty vehicles many stations turn away.

Hybrids & SUVs

Hybrids need a smog check just like gas cars — we test them all, from compacts to hybrid SUVs.

Gross polluter

Only a test-only station can certify a gross polluter after repair. Bring it back and we’ll finish it out.
