Our cost guide explains what moves the price.

Do I need a smog check in Livermore?
If your DMV registration renewal notice says a smog certification is required, yes. Most gasoline, hybrid and alternative-fuel vehicles from model year 1976 on need a smog check every other year, with exceptions listed in our requirements guide.
STAR, test-only or test-and-repair?
BAR describes three kinds of stations that can perform an inspection. A test-and-repair station performs smog checks and emissions repairs. A test-only station performs smog checks but does not make emissions repairs. A STAR station meets higher performance standards and can inspect all vehicles, including high-polluting ones.
