Had a horrible experience at a shop down the street. This is with an entirely factory car with NO modifications mind you. Took it here, explained why the previous shop had failed me (because I knew they'd see those failures on the report) and he said that the other shop doesn't know what they're talking about. They couldn't fail for those reasons. He was quick, got me in and out, and I'm on my way with a certificate! I even asked him about another one of my cars that I've had getting a shop to smog (it's older, but entirely factory), and he told me to run it around a bit since it's been sitting and put a half tank of gas and he'd take care of it. I trust them to BE HONEST, which is all I can ask from a smog shop. read more

Paul is responsive, service is great. They can even help with registration stickers.

There was no wait, great service and very kind gentleman. Very nice waiting area. I would recommend this business

We have taken a few cars here. Always honest and checks out your cars computer before the actual Smog Test.

I ended up coming here after going to Grand Smog(Jamboree Smog), where they told me they couldn't perform the smog check since I had a Cat Shield on my car. I drive a Prius and put a Cat Shield on my vehicle a number of years ago to deter catalytic converter thieves, since Prius's are a primary target. I politely declined and advised him that I would just go somewhere else. I ended up coming to Orange Smog on Glassell and the kind gentleman here got me in and out in less than 15 minutes with no issues. Highly recommend. read more

Great service! Reasonable prices. Friendly employees. Been here twice for smog checks and highly recommend this little shop!

Pleasant, fast and prompt. Very helpful and informative saved me lots of frustration by telling me about weight certificate required for trucks to register. Highly recommended read more

Great service very professional the owners very very nice very polite person. Not sure why he got a bad review that doesn't make sense but he's been nothing but great to me and my wife prices are more than fair. I highly recommend him very very nice place to get smog. In fact, I'm leaving to go over there right now and get a car smog read more

I called him for appointment . They dont give appointment. He asked me to come and wait. It seemed to me that he didn't give a Shite if I came or not. I guess he is not very customer focussed. read more

Prompt and affordable service. I initially visited two other locations, assuming all places handle Smog Checks, but quickly found out that's not the case. I ended up waiting longer just to speak with someone at the other places, whereas here, they completed the check quickly and efficiently. read more

I came here last minute a day after Christmas and they took care of me in less than 20 minutes very quick and convenient. A+ read more

Excellent service at this local business. I was in and out in less than 20 minutes and paid a total of $55 including the smog certificate.

Came here this morning around 9:15a & I just dropped by because I remember I needed to do a smog test for my car & this was the first place I seen on the way home. I get out the car, one customer is leaving as I'm entering. I enter & I see an older Asian guy with glasses (could be the owner or just a worker). I asked him how much was a smog test and he answered according to my car make and model. I was shocked at the prices because it was higher than it usually is- so I was "ooh ok", but he mentioned if my car "pass" the test or not, so then I became intrigued because I didn't know what that meant so I asked "what you mean if it pass?" then he says "well I'm just telling you, if you don't like it, u can go somewhere else or leave" ... I was so confused because WHAT? Over me asking him "what he meant by if it pass?" Yeah you damn sure ain't getting my money with that attitude. If you can't answer simple questions without an attitude and all the aggression then you in the wrong business sir. I was so shocked, I instantly backed out of the store and left. Idk what happened but it was definitely too early for the BS & rather than dish it back, I took my money elsewhere. But I highly DONT Recommend this place. That guy was rude and unprofessional! & I know exactly where the aggression came from but that's another conversation for another day... read more

Great place, in and out quickly with no issues and a fair price.

They work really quick and they are very nice people! I will definitely be back. If you are a dog person you will appreciated their puppy! I played with it while I waited. read more

Very efficient and reliable. Been going to this location for years, and the owner knows his stuff well. Highly recommend.

It's a one-man-show. Tim has been smogging my cars here for many years. Good and honest service! read more

Orange Smog - Smog Check Stations Near Me - Orange, California

I take all of my vehicles here. The pricing is fair and the owner is really friendly. The dyno machine is built on the ground, but is not friendly to super slammed vehicles, which most people don't have anyways...but I figured I would throw that information out for car enthusiasts. Te place is also STAR certified if you need that type of smog. read more

Convenient location. Easy no frills.Tim is honest and prices reasonable. Bringing all the family cars here as long as we are in OC and Orange Smog is around. read more

The gentleman behind the counter, Tim, provided exceptional and speedy service. Well worth paying a few extra dollars. We will be taking our cars back here from now on. read more

No frills stop to get your car smog check done. Owner/operator, Tim, is extremely courteous and nice. I have been here four or five times and the experience is always a good one. read more

20+ times I've been in over the years and Tim always does a great job, gets me out quickly and with fare rates.

Needed a STAR smog. Found this place on-line. Drove in, talked to Tim (owner/operator), and my smog check was completed in about 15 minutes. It's a bit more expensive that most other places and no coupons are offered, but the quick and friendly service are worth it. I definitely recommend Orange Smog and I will be back with my other vehicles when the need arises. read more

Easy and convenient for smog checks. Drove in and was done 20 minutes later. Only gets 4 stars and not the full 5 for the waiting area. It's not comfortable sitting in a little box on metal chairs. The weather was really cold on the day I went to get mine done and it was freezing in the office. I had to wait outside it got so cold I literally couldn't feel my fingers. read more

I used this place to smog my 'burban when I mistakenly thought that I couldn't use a "test-only" place if my DMV paperwork said "smog check station." The owner/operator was quick and the price was cheaper than my usual place. read more

Don't waste your time here. (1) It's overpriced. I got a cert at a different station a few blocks away for less than half the price. (2) Not sure Tim knows what he's doing. The guy failed me only because my catalyst monitor wasn't ready. Emissions was good and CEL was off. In California, you can have one monitor not ready and still pass. I drove 500 miles in 2 weeks, came back and Tim told me I had to wait 25 minutes for a retest. Needless to say, I drove off and got it rechecked at a different station. read more

Best smog shop. Tim always does an accurate job and is honest. Prices are good and comparable to other smog shops in the area. Been coming here for years when I lived in OC and I still go there now and I trust Tim to take care of our vehicles' smog every time. I've referred my family members to come here as well. When you find someone as good and kind as Tim, you stay loyal. So, I make a day of it when I head to the OC and stop at Tim's to smog my truck as well. I encourage others to try Tim's smog shop. You won't find a better guy who's honest to take care of your car. read more

Great quick service and reasonably priced. I have smogged two RV here and will be taking my other cars here when it's time. Just call ahead to see how long the wait is before heading over. read more

I've been coming here for years, fast and friendly. Tim is really straight forward and if there is a problem he always has good references of places where you can go and take care of the problem. you gotta love it! :-) read more

I'm very happy with this smog test only business. I've had the owner Tim smog all four of our vehicles and even our new RV we've added to the fleet. He is trustworthy, friendly, very economical and you don't feel like you are getting nickel-and-dimed. I had a little issue getting the new RV bought out of state to pass all the crazy California CARB smog requirements and Tim patiently held my hand on multiple visits to get the RV to pass. read more

I highly recommend Orange Smog, I have been going there for probably at least the last 5 years. The owner is nice, and I agree with others who say it's easy, no frills, and honest at a reasonable price. read more
