The station must give you an estimate that you approve before the inspection starts, and it must charge the $8.25 Smog Check certificate fee. Call two or three stations before you go. Our cost guide explains what moves the price.

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.
