It was that dreadful time again to get my 1991 truck smogged. I stop by and asked how much is it now, and the price was $117 - yikes ! Everything is going up in price except for my salary. My truck did not pass and I had to pay extra to have the timing adjusted. So, you can look around and try to find lower rates but unfortunately prices are almost doubling for these forced services by our state. read more

We came here for a smog check and had another good experience. No appointment needed, which makes it easy. They have chairs inside and outside for customers, and the place is clean. The shop is right next to McDonald's on Valley and Marguerita. We paid $60 for a van smog, which is cheaper than most places. The staff is friendly, professional, honest, and the service is usually fast. Their hours are consistent too. If you live near Alhambra and need a DMV smog check, this spot is reliable. read more

I went in for a smog check. Gary at the front desk was very friendly and helpful. It was a bit busy and Gary remained calm, friendly and respectful despite an impatient and rude man going in and demanding immediate answers. Gary was not only on the phone and receiving a part from an O'riley auto parts representative, but he was also trying to get the ball rolling on another customer that needed a smog check. They treat customers great! Also, in my opinion, the price was reasonable for my smog check and I didn't wait long at all. read more

I spoke with Louie when I made my appointment and he explained everything clearly. This business is dependable, quick, provides great service and makes life easier! read more

Hands down one of the best, if not THE BEST place to get smog check quickly, and cheaply. I know inflation has caused lot of places to increase their prices, but this shop has remained steady in their prices and are no nonsense. Have been coming here for years (decades), with all my vehicles. Their hours on the weekdays are 830a to 5:30p, Saturday is 8:30a to 5:00p and closed on Sundays. The cost of a smog check with certificate included is $51. No need for coupon. They're not sketchy like some places that charge a certain amount and claim you need a coupon or do a bait and switch when you show up. read more

Update: I took my car to a LEGIT place that cost more afterwards for smog check because I don't believe a word they said when they failed my car. Proved my gut feeling. The other place saw in the computer system that I got smogged before and double checked why I failed. Well, my car shouldn't have failed. Everything checked out a week after, magically. They either doesn't know their business or did it on purpose. Either case, stay away. read more

excellent service quick and easy to do business with ... been a customer for many years

Went for a smog test. In and out in less than 15minutes. Cost me $51. The rep was very nice and helpful. Will come back for another when needed. read more

This is by far the best most competent smog check and repair in San Gabriel Valley. Master tech Gary is diligent in repairing specific smog failed vehicles. He only fixes that one problem that is affecting the cars optimal function without the BS and trying to sell anything else. Tin the smog technician has at least 30 years experience in smog-gin all cars. Mr Lui is real cool with his smooth customer service and earnest desire to help all customers with their questions and needs. I've seen this team fix and smog cars that other shops have trouble with or even figuring out how to fix them. If you come by you'll see for yourself, they're always busy and helping customers quick. I'm happy to know they are here to help me anytime with any smog checks and registration needs. read more

Pretty bad customer service a young guy always upset. Bad attitude. The guy does not tolerate being questioned or asked questions.

Best smog place...all my family goes here. You can get your tags here as well. Love the service

Everyone I talked to in here was kind and incredibly helpful! They helped me complete a few repairs, run a smog test, and complete a title transfer/out of state new registration, all with reasonable pricing! I definitely plan on returning for my own vehicle and my fiancé's the next time we need something done! read more

I took my car there a few weeks back to get a smog check. Apparently it wasn't ready, so they told me to drive around a come back since one of the sensor wasn't ready. They didn't charge me for the service. Went back to then about a week later and my car finally showed ready. There was no wait since there wasn't anyone else there, but as they were testing my car, two more cars pulled up. It looked like they have two bays and a couple techs to do the smog checks. It was quick and easy once my car showed it was ready. read more

Service is great!!! Love coming here for my smog check!!! In and out in no time!!! Came here in the morning and it wasn't crowded.

BEWARE!!!!! Total ripoff artists!!!! I went in there to get smogged and they told me I had an issue with my Catalytic Converter and that I needed it replaced.... Turns out they had been the ones who had installed the faulty one two years earlier! Suddenly everything was okay and I passed the smog. Not only that but a few days later I noticed a police car at the location. I decided to be nosy and it turned out they had tried to rip off another woman, leaving her in tears. She, however, looks like she has some plans in store, remaining there and taking pics for what will hopefully turn out to be a lawsuit. read more

Great service! Recommend coming here for any smog checks! I will definitely come back again and tell my friends about this place. read more

Great prices on smog check and quickly serviced. Will be recommending to friends and family.

Professional, quick, and friendly. Regular and STAR smog tests available. Transparent fair pricing. With COVID-19, we appreciated that the man wore gloves to work on our car. We saw this shop and called to see if they could do a smog check for walk-ins and also I didn't have my paperwork but they were able to look up the DMV info for me. We were in and out in about 15 minutes--just like they said! We even munched on our lunch in the parking lot as we waited. Parking lot was spacious (enough) - especially compared to other auto mechanics' shops that I've seen. Will definitely be back again. read more

I was in and out very quickly. The price was very reasonable compared to other places I had called. Almost half of what other smog centers were charging. read more
