Needed a Smog Check and looked for a place local. There are plenty of businesses in Van Nuys but I'm glad I picked this one! Called ahead to check if they're busy and needed appointment, also a quote. They were free today and was quoted a special price, just mention the quote when arriving for the service for discount! The service was quick, easy, and couldn't have been more seamless. Was done within 15 minutes while waiting in their comfortable waiting area. Masks were worn and distance kept. After inspection was done, my smog check report was automatically sent to the DMV. Paid with credit card and on my way. read more

walked in on a Saturday morning. Jesus was already working on a vehicle in a lift. he dons a mask and is already wearing gloves which reminds me to put mine on as i exit my vehicle. he asks, smog check? i say yes. he reaches in for the dmv paperwork on the dash and hands me a clip board to fill in with my info. he immediately sets my car up and beckons an apprentice who seems to me to be his son who continues where he left off. before i can even begin to meditate as i was responding to some messages on its app the smog check was done. he confirmed that the results has been sent to dmv and since i already registered i will get my tags in the mail.

Just left this place! José was super helpful. Figured out a very simple problem. It cost 5 bucks to repair. The place I went to before wanted to charge 115 to just look at my car. José did it for free and fixed it for the cost of the part. He is all about helping people. He explained what things I HAD to get done and what things I could wait on for my car. He did the SMOG check very quickly. And told me to come back for an oil change. He says he would give me a fair price. I love that! He is a nice guy! Thank you for your help! read more

This was the first time I ever had to get a smog done on my car - a hybrid. I found EZ Smog Check on Yelp. The reviews were good and they were close to where I lived. I booked the appointment online the night before. The appointment showed the price for the smog and was easy to do. The next morning I turned up and everything was super simple. 15 minutes later, if that, my car was done. Friendly, easy and convenient - couldn't ask for more. read more

They offered to do it the same day for a very reasonable price and less than 3 hours later, my car was ready. Joe has worked on my car for small items like brakes and oil changes all the way up to getting some check engine light issues fixed. Pricing is always great. Brought my car here for a diagnostic thinking the issue was one thing only to find out "no, you don't need that," and saved me a bunch of money I would have likely spent elsewhere. He didn't push me to fix anything that didn't need fixing and pointed out a few things that were old that I might want replaced so I just took all his suggestions because it's a very old car and it needed some extra care. All the five star reviews are well deserved!! Highly recommended.

I went in for transmission fluid change earlier in February in my Toyota Camry 2018. I bought OEM Toyota transmission fluid and asked Joe to help do drain and fill.The drain and fill was completed. After that there was a rough driving issues started. I went back to show my car to joe and he drove the car he told me he don't see any issues. I wanted him to check transmission fluid port on if there is low transmission fluid he didn't agree and told me I might be overthinking. I went to different mechanic in April and he checked. I paid $100 to reopen the port for transmission fluid and what we saw was no fluid came out from the primary port. He added 0.5 quarters left. The issues I have had for rough idle and need to have higher RPM on slope went away completely.According to him you have to keep the car running when you drain the fluid and you need to have it at the right temperature he said the drain and fill wasn't done correctly that's why there was still room for fluid. The viscosity of the fluid makes a difference in how much you can fill and drain. He double checked for leakage and there were no leaks either. When I went to joe and asked about don't you have to keep car warm to see if temperature is right? He said you only do it when there is a leak. I don't think Joe knew enough about mechanics of New car. I wasn't overthinking when I went to ask Joe for help and asked to recheck the transmission fluid. I paid $260 for labor only( $160 to Joe and $100 to another mechanic) for same job. It's really absurd. Overall this could have damaged my transmission. I think for future the customer advise should be taken seriously. I know my car well so I know when it's not acting good. I have been driving it from 10 years.
