I read reviews first before going to Downey Express Smog. Oscar was cool, very nice and professional. While waiting in there lobby, Oscar came back to inform me that I did not need a smog test. Silly me, read my DMV Renewal all wrong, so I'm a DUMBASS. That's what happens in this busy ass world. Back to work, here I come Disney Studios. All I can say is thumbs up for Oscar, honest guy. I told him I would see him next year. I am so coming back. Totally recommend Downey Express Smog. read more

I called about an hour before they closed and the person on the phone told me I can come in. So when I got there he said "I have one car ahead of you" but once it came to the other person's turn, he put my car instead. I believe the other car had some sort of problem. Either way, when he pulled my car in he started working on fast and the quote he gave me over the phone was exactly the same as I got when I arrived. The shop is super clean and the the tech was super fast in doing the smog check. For being a Friday night the service was done rapidly and professionally. Highly recommend this place for your smog. read more

Took my car to get a smog check. Had to wait about 20 minutes, because there were a couple of cars before me. Place is small and only one car can be serviced at a time.

Found these dudes on yelp and came here because they're open on Sundays..... Whaaaaat!!! Yup, Sunday! So, I messaged them on yelp and got a response in 5 minutes. He quoted me over yelp. How cool is that? I drove in at 9:35am and was out by 10:05am. The dudes name is Oscar and he took care of me and my Trailblazer. Oscar was pretty cool based on first impressions. So far I am happy with the service and I will be coming back. I think the prices are very fair. He also gave a recomendation on my water pump and saved me a breakdown. Thanks Oscar!!! read more

Went at around 8:45am in the morning and was serviced right away was in and out quick . Friendly staff.

The best smog place in Downey. Been bringing our cars for a few years. It's located in the back of a drive thru car wash. Just stay on the far right lane and pull in. The owner is super chill and always friendly , even when he's busy. If you're a car guy or gear head you'll probably spend some time chatting about cars. Oh yea and he has the best price in town. Can't beat that read more

Super fast. Great deal. Best deal around! Especially for mandatory STAR certified requirement. Other places take advantage that you for that notice from DMV. Not here. Recommend 110%. read more

This was my second time coming here for my smog check! I love it! Quick, professional, great service and the employees are nice! I'll keep coming back! Thanks guys! read more

Service is fast but wait is a bit long if you come in late. Also the parking situation is weird. There's only like 4 spots, and you have to park when you're waiting for your turn. So when all spots are taken, people literally park behind your car and essentially block you from leaving. One guy even left his car behind mine when it was my turn to drive in for the smog check and he was nowhere to be seen. Had to wait an additional ten minutes for him. Turns out he went to get a snack somewhere but still, it's a bit inconvenient. Otherwise service is fast and workers are nice. read more

Quick and easy process! No waiting. Great customer service I was in and out with min 20 mins..

I'm amazed at how fast and easy this was! Oscar and the lady that was there were very friendly and I didn't feel intimidated to ask questions.. Even though there were 2 cars in front of me I don't think I was there very long.. Will definitely recommend! Just FYI it's at the very back on your right hand side when you enter. It seems as though each station is operated by different people. read more

I'm so glad that I found this place. The young guy doing the smog check was so very professional and so very nice. I will definitely be recommending this place. It's rather small but for the service that they gave it was worth it. read more

I use the Express Smog check for the very first time today since it so convenient to get a quick wash while there. I will have to admit the attendant was really nice and kind. Service is A+ plus pricing is really super reasonable. This is my new go to spot for Smog from now on. read more

Was in and out pretty quickly due to the staff being really helpful! Oscar helped a lot and taught me a couple things about what was going on with my car. Will be back! read more

Heard a lot of great things based on the reviews and decided to give them a shot. The service was quick and easy and only paid $45 and was out in about 15-20 minutes. Location can be a bit confusing as it's in the rear of the car wash area, but it's pretty easy to figure out. read more

I have been going to Downey Smog for the past 4-5 years, and the service continues to be excellent. I take all my family cars there and look forward to continuing doing business with the owner. He's swift, and the waiting area is comfortable. I usually sit inside for 10 minutes, and he comes back with my paperwork, and I'm out of there. I don't dread Smog checks anymore read more

I needed a smog check and was calling for quotes from a few places. This place offered $40 for a smog check, lowest and nicest person I talked to on the phone. I didn't have an appointment, Drove up, got taken care of quickly. I'm so happy I found this place and I will be recommending this place to all of my family members! This place is also attached to a car wash, so.. might as well take care of your car altogether! read more

I can not express how much i appreciate all the help i received after a failed smog test due to the battery dying and everything being reset on an older car that i was selling. I showed up 6 times until all my lights worked and each time he was patient, kind and friendly. Im pretty sure he was annoyed by my visits since i frequently stopped by in a short amount of time but he didnt let it show. Highly recommend this place and will continue to bring all my cars here. read more

You know, it doesn't take much to provide great customer service and Downey Express Smog Check provides it in abundance. Not only did he go above and beyond trying to get the right adapter for my 1995 300ZX, he did it without a complaint or sign of frustration. Also, the price was cheaper (not by much, but every cent counts) than other businesses closer to my house. It also helps that this is one of the few smog places open on Sunday and has a nice wait area with coffee for customers. He's getting my business from now on. read more

This place is highly recommended , I've been going to Downey express smog for 6 years now and I haven't look somewhere else they take care of you professionally and make sure your car will be taking care of if it didn't pass, by fixing what's wrong of your engine, read more

I got that dreaded letter from the DMV saying that it was that time of the year were I needed to do a SMOG Check! I remembered that I stopped by this location the last time I did the check and got a really good deal. So an hour before they were going to close, I stopped by and drove up to them on a weekday. I was immediately greeted by a nice gentleman named Oscar. I asked him that I wanted to do a smog check and asked him how much it would be. He said he would do it for $40 and that it would take him 15 minutes. He told me to sit down over at the waiting area they had and sure enough after 15 minutes he went over to get me. He took my payment and said that my vehicle passed the test and that everything is in the computer system. He was nice, friendly and worked on my vehicle quickly. I was in and out and on my way. I will continue to come here to get my smog checks in the future and recommend this place to anyone for smog checks! read more

I haven't been on Yelp in a WHILE but the service at D.E.S.C. brought me back. I drove up unannounced, my ride is over 20 years old. It was 4:30pm on Monday, I waited about 45 minutes and walked out with my smog cert at a reasonable price. Helpful staff, nice waiting room, quick and easy service for a good price. No complaints! read more

I've been coming here since high school for all my smog checks needs at Downey Express! With all the different cars I had to switch to throughout college, it always passed with the same price ($60).
