This place is quick and simple. The guy was very helpful and when I arrived today at around 2pm, there was no line. Done in 30 mins. The day was so hot today too! My smog check was done for $41. Awesome. Also, I love the fact that I can wait at Starbucks just across the street and watch for when my car is ready. :) read more

My car was needing a smog check and the older Vietnamese gentlemen helped me out. I was in a rush and he was able to finish everything up within 20 minutes. Recommend to all! read more

I love this guy. I went to him a few years ago and I just went to see him yesterday again. He knows what he's doing. You pass. What more do you need? I don't understand people who want good customer service from a guy who gives you a great deal and knows what he's doing. Go to a frickin' spa if you want to be pampered. read more

Prices are good & test was done somewhat quickly but the tech seemed very rude & possessed zero customer service skills. Very rude staff. read more

This is the 2nd time I come to smog my older but very reliable Toy Avalon. It's quick and a very good value. Brian the owner is very personable, funny and just an all around nice guy. read more

Scams. Charged me for failing. Other shops (such as smog tech star station in Yorba Linda) didn't charge me for failing, and actually gave me advice on what to fix. This guy didn't tell me Jack, except to "get my car fixed"???? My car was 100% stock with no Check engine lights read more

Ryan was great! He had me in and out super quick! They also did my registration at a great price as well. One stop smog shop! Definitely bring all my cars here for smog read more

The guy Brian there who I think is the owner is the biggest a hole I've ever met. He was rude and tried to overcharge me not only for the smog but three dollars for a credit card charge. I don't know how people like this stay in business but hopefully not for long. On top of that the place is dirty there's no waiting room and even though I had a coupon he wouldn't honor it. read more

Brian was great. He has been doing my Smog checks for the past 8-10 years. I highly recommend him. He is fast and not very expensive. There are coupons on his website. He also has a good sense of humor. Great guy! read more

it was an excellent service and very reasonable price, the technician was nice and fast. I was in and out in no time, I recommend every one to go there. there have a registration service too, I renew my registration got my stickers immediately there. thanks so much Brian. read more

This place tried to short change me when I got a smog. Make sure to double check your change! It wasn't even an honest mistake, he just hoped I wouldnt notice. ***Always check your local Pennysaver for smog coupons, you will save about 50%, granted this is how I found this place though*** read more

I was driving by looking for a smog check the price $81.24 for a smog test only truck, i asked for a discount even though i didn't have a coupon and i got a great deal, he offered me a chair and gave the option to either wait under the tent or across the street at Starbucks because the car will 15 to 20 minutes and in fact i was out of there in 15 minutes. i great a experience. read more

Did not feel welcomed when I came in. Owner seems like a grouch. Only thing good is the cheap price.

This place doesn't give you free or discount price for retest if your car couldn't pass the test, they ask full price for retest. There are many smog check stations give free or partial charge for retest(s), find a better place for your car. BTW, the man who works there doesn't show a good attitude. read more

Called and asked what they charge for smog check on an 06 bmw, the guy said it was $ 59.99 + tax and certificate, then I asked if he'd honor the $20 online coupon, he said he would which would make the "final coupon price" $49.99, so then I tried correcting his math, he said I was being "unreasonable" and hung up read more

Been here two additional times to get friends' cars smogged. There was a different Asian guy working since my initial post. He's a bit older but really fast. He's not too chit chatty if there are multiple customers. That's cool with me because I wanna get my car smogged and then do other stuff afterwards anyway. Coupon price seems to have gone up, but still cheaper than most places. read more

Nice guy. In and out within 10 min. 48.00 includes Cert for a bad ass 02 Avalanche.

The guy here is so nice! Second time coming to this location and I would definitely come back. He's quick, cheap, and so friendly. Love this place! read more

I called around my area for the least expensive smog check I could find. Other places were charging $50, $60, $70 and more for a smog check. I was sold on AA Smog Test when I was told that it would only be $40 for my car! The owner was very friendly and made me feel welcome. I would recommend AA Smog Test to my family and friends. read more

Brian was really nice and helpful. Smog test was very quick and cheap. I called him on the phone to ask how much it would cost and he asked if I had a coupon. I told him no but he said he'd still give me the discount anyway. $42 out the door compared to the $75 across the street. read more

Went there today with my 2000 Toyota Corolla, printed out the special discount coupon from their website $16.99 + $8.25 and it works and it only took me less 15 mins to pass the smog check! The guy who works there is Robert (Chinese guy) very friendly and decent service! This save me a lot, for me here is not a bad place to do the somg........! read more

AA Smog Test Only - $16.99 + $8.25 for my 2000 Toyota Corolla! - Smog Check Stations Near Me - Tustin, California

Fast, friendly, efficient. Was in and out in 20 minutes. Honest guy. No gimmicks. Honored his coupon. I would recommend.

Just had a terrible experience here with the technician Hung Nguyen. After coming back twice (1st time I got there there was a wait, no big deal, I went to run an errand, 2nd time he told me he forgot to calibrate his machine so it would be another 30 minute wait. I should have left then, but ran another errand and came back) I knew my older car (a '98) would take a while so I sat down with my book to wait. While waiting Hung asked what I did. When I replied that I was a teacher he began talking about how we should have metal detectors at school and how shootings would never happen at private schools. He went on to talk about how much better private school were, how school shootings would never happen in Vietnam, how the shooter in Florida would probably get off because his lawyer would argue the shooter was "mental" and how a coach died because he took a bullet for his students. Never once did I mention I worked at a public school. I answered his ranting with one word answers for the most part and repeatedly tried to go back to reading my book. I tried not to engage him but admittedly defended my school when he started talking about how public school teachers only know their students and principles at public schools are never outside monitoring their school. As a dedicated public middle school teacher this conversation was incredibly upsetting, offensive and inappropriate. This was not a conversation I wanted to have with anyone, much less someone in the service industry. On top of this he tried to get me to go to an atm to get cash rather than take my credit card so I would have to pay the fee rather than him. I pushed back and he did eventually take my card. Needless to say I will not be returning for my next smog check. read more

My sister got a smog check here a few months ago and referred me to this place. Robert was very polite and courteous. He did his job professionally and efficiently. The price is so reasonable for such a good service that I received. I would always come back to have my smog check here from now on. Best smog check experience I ever had. read more

Was fast only took 10min. The plastic by the side my window was falling off no matter what I would do it wouldn't stay in place , when he was done checking my car he showed me that he fixed it for me using some spare clips he had from his car. That was really nice of him. Great service. read more

Not sure what everyone is coma ink g about with the service. I drove straight into the stall and he insisted I don't even get out because he noticed I'm pregnant . He's a funny guy tho ... & yes will honor the coupon but with tax, cert fee etc. it was the cheaper to go without $40 flat. Fast service done on my lunch break. read more

Awesome, what a great service station. very helpful.Took care of my car in about 15 minutes . Thank you for all your help .All my co workers thank you too. read more

I just got back from getting a smog test here. Ace was friendly, great sense of humor and very efficient! I couldn't be happier with my experience. Especially considering it cost half the amount other places are charging in the area! I will definitely be back and highly recommend AA Smog Test Only! read more

We stopped by this past Saturday without an appointment to get a smog check for my car. Here is the breakdown: Pros: *Affordable (they have a coupon on their website: http://smogchecktustin.com/ *Quick (my smog check only took 15/20 minutes) Cons: *Parking lot is awkward to pull into, especially if it is full of cars getting gas The inspector, Hung Nguyen seems a bit off-putting at first, but we were extra polite and then he warmed up. He came out of his shell and was friendly, and even funny too! He also gave us tips about paying our registration online and was overall really helpful. Thank you, AA Smog Test (the one next to Starbucks) for a quick and effortless smog check! We will definitely come back again and recommend to others. read more

Interesting reading the other reviews here. I visited this place last year for my SUV and I was in and out. Took about 30 minutes for the actual smog check. I brought cash and the coupon. - Of course, you should ALWAYS bring the coupon, that is what they are there for. And just be sure to bring cash for the exact change. Here is their direct website http://www.aasmogtestonlytustin.com/ It has a printable coupon on there as well. For instance, if you have a vehicle newer than 1996, then the total cash to bring should be $32.25. Unless you want to bring in pennies, then $32.24 :-) This includes the Smog check fee plus the $8.25 certificate fee which is charged by ANY smog check station. You can certainly shop around, but you can't beat this price compared to $50 for others. Happy smogging! read more

Came in for a smog check on a rainy day. The Asian gentlemen working the smog bay asked me to keep my window rolled down as it poured rain into my car. I told him it's raining directly into my car can I pull the car in slightly. He told me I shouldn't have come on a rainy day... Awesome customer service. Grabbed my paperwork and got the F outta there. Went up the street to the Mobile on El Camino & Red Hill Ave, $50 & 5 minutes later I'm good... I would HATE to be that dudes wife or kids, his general demeanor is that of a lazy, grumpy old fart. read more

Asian guy is a total asshole. I went in today around 145pm. No sign up or anything, but the guy tells me to come back in an hour, as he just got his lunch. So, I go back at 3 and the guy tells me my attitude wasn't good earlier when he sent me away and he will not test my vehicle. So, now, even more irritated for wasting more of my time, I told him to go fuck himself. Stay away from this asshole. Do not waste your money on an ungrateful shit bag. There are plenty of places that will provide excellent service. This is not one. read more

This is a bait and switch operation. The owner is full of excuses: "You didn't hear me say you have to have a coupon to get the price I quoted on the phone." "Probably my phone is old so you couldn't hear me." "That price is only for cars newer than yours." "That price is only for cars older than yours." Then he shortchanged me on top of it all. No matter how attractive the price seems to be, go elsewhere. In the long run, you'll wind up paying less no matter where you go. read more

This place is a joke. If you go to the website there are two different prices listed for a smog check. Also the guy will charge you $5 more if you use a credit card and not pay cash. When I asked why he was charging $5 more the Chinese guy got upset and didn't want to do the smog. So I went to the Mobil gas station directly across the street where they also do smog checks. I asked the guy there if he will give me a smog for cheaper than the Chinese guy at Shell, and he said yes. So the moral to this story is go to Mobil across the street for a smog. read more

First time smogger here and this place was great! Quick service, friendly staff & great value. Other places had quoted me up to $70!! I used a coupon here and ended up only paying around $40. I would happily refer anyone in need of a smog check to come here. read more

Came for a quick smog check. Got a coupon off the net. There was some confusion over the price but the owner was amazing and gave me the lower price. Super nice guys. Smog check took only 10 minutes! They are moving location to 14501 Redhill so look out for that. read more

Called ahead of time and there was no wait. In and out in 20 minutes with a coupon (had to pay cash to get discount) and it was super easy.

Agree that service person is all-business and no chit chat, which was fine. Please note, CASH ONLY was required.

Had a great experience doing a smog check here today. Called ahead and asked if I can use a coupon, and was told I didn't need a coupon and he will give me the special price. The process was quick and simple. Brian was very friendly and efficient. Will definitely recommend to friend and family. read more

Saw their $30 coupon online so I stopped in for smog check, was quoted $62 and when I mentioned the coupon online he said it would not cover mine because it was a truck, but offered me a new price of $50 but only if I paid cash... Nope I walked away! read more
