My trusty 1995 Saturn needed a STAR certified smog check again, but my previous places were a…read morenon-starter: one's pre-2000 machine was a bust and the place prior cost a small fortune. Enter the proverbial quest of searching online reviews for local, quality places. After a few busts calling other joints (straight to voicemail, "our machine is also broken," etc.), I came across In & Out Smog here on Yelp. The place picks up right away. Super friendly and clear on the phone and it's clear they're the spot for me to go. It's two hours before closing, but they're good to take me right away too. I swing by and I'm third in line, but it feels like I'm first. They're on the ball here, pointing out where to idle and asking me to keep the engine running. Another customer waiting tells there me she loves this place, even though she worries her older car too won't pass. (Spoiler alert: it passed.) While waiting in one of their comfy chairs in the shade, I could see the two guys working here know their stuff. One of them swings by with the quote - it's like HALF the price of the place I used to go to, even without a coupon. (Pro tip: no coupons anywhere usually for pre-2000 cars.) Well, that's cool. Another thing to point out: they've got this unique scenic painting of a mountain scape on the wall, almost facing Burbank's Verdugo Mountains just outside in the distance. In a world of so many places looking the same, it's things like that that can stand out beyond the work itself. So, they're doing their thorough tests and it's looking good. I hear my tried-and-true old car passed the test. (Side note: Bobby at Olive Auto Center just down the block has single handedly given extra life to my car with his incredible repairs.) But that's not the end of it at In & Out Smog. The guy offers some tips he noticed for other little improvements, like my gas cap could use a swap and some other things like that. Nice to go the extra mile there. Feels like they care a little more than just on to the next one. Bonus points: he also went through the numbers with me for how I scored, just for the fun of it without asking for the breakdown. What a cool little spot. Highly recommended!

Crown smog has excellent technicians. They are nice, helpful, explain everything and honest. I highly recommend Crown Smog. Remember: Print out the coupon on their website.

There's a faded entrance sign, but it's rather easy to enter and there's plenty of room to maneuver once inside. Friendly and efficient service with even better communication. Couldn't recommend this place more. $50 no coupon for my 2016 Prius smog check, that beats a lot of other places that want $67 or higher. I appreciate the workers here, they answered the phone right away, gave me precise information in a prompt and respectful manner, and as a woman I feel very safe on multiple levels coming here. Hard to find a decent service these days, but I am happy to report that this is a legit option. It will for sure be my goto from now on. Bonus: they offer some discounts if paying in cash on some models. Prius unfortunately isn't one of them, but at least it's $50 whether it is cash or card, so I can't complain.
