I feel like my 2018 Kia Forte is still new. As long as you do your routine oil changes and maintenance on time. There shouldn't be a reason for your car not to pass smog. But at the same time, I'm the 1st and only owner of my car. Service was excellent and fast ( 15 to 20 mins ). I didn't necessarily keep track. But I do know, it was long being there. I went during the day around 11am, perfect before lunch hour rushes. Thank you Star Auto Check and thank you yelp for referring me. read more

I came here on a Sunday around 11:30 AM. The service was fast. The guy who helped me was very friendly. Also, I have to give you guys a heads up. This place has a special but it's only on yelp. If you mention the yelp special, you can get your smog done for $53. If you don't mention the yelp special the price will be $73 but you have to mention the special so thank you Yelp for hooking us up with a discount. I think that makes this place one of the cheapest smog test in town because the average price is $70-$85. read more

Star Auto Check - Smog Check Stations Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I came early for my SMOG Check to avoid any lines since the day before was slammed. I was seen right away, and everything went well and quickly, about 20 minutes total. Sergio was efficient and helpful, pointing out something to keep an eye on. I used the Yelp special, which means $45.75 + $8 =$54 out the door. A better value than I could find closer to my house, with already a few visits here over the past ten years for my 2006 SUV. As always, I was happy with the experience and will continue bringing my cars here. read more

Star Auto Check - Pricing Jan. 2026 - Smog Check Stations Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Quick and easy while remaining one of the more affordable ones in the area ($54 when you flash the Yelp pricing photo vs $64 normally; elsewhere is typically $60). Luckily came when there was no line. Took about 10 min. Straightforward to get the dmv pass. Would recommend. read more

Quick service and friendly staff! Didn't have to wait too long either and informed me of a recall on my car. Would highly recommend!

Mario and Sergio were awesome! I came on a weekday right before 12pm to get a smog check before rendering my registration, and I was in and out in under 12 minutes. No waiting, no hassle, and they sent results right to the DMV. I mentioned Yelp when I arrived and they were more than happy to offer the discount. With the Yelp deal and tax, I paid just under $55. The location is super easy to find - the big pyramid just off Robertson north of the 10 freeway. Make sure to enter off of Robertson, not the side street. read more

Came here during my lunch hour today since it was the nearest place to get my registration updated and a smog check. Drive up service which is great and don't need to worry about parking A little bit of line but they got me in and out in less than 30 mins. There's plenty of places to check out on the main street while waiting. The guy working on my car didn't seem too excited when i "checked in" and asked for the discount but he obliged. Quickly got me serviced and my info sent to the dmv for renewal read more

Star Auto Check is top notch service! I messaged the business for a quote and they responded back within 10 minutes with a very reasonable price for a smog check! I was down there pronto!

Open Sunday and took me right in. Very professional and courteous. I've gone to them before and will again.

Pretty rude. Brought my Porsche waited for a while for them to tell me the my don't work on Porsches. Why didn't you tell me from the start?

Great service, quick, simple. Was a bit crowded in a Sunday so waited quite some time (40 min.?) Recommend this place though! Thanks Jose! read more

Star Auto Check - Waiting in line on a Sunday behind a Beamer - Smog Check Stations Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I was charged more than the $70 and the guy said the other costs were related to taxes for my registration which wasn't true after connecting with the DMV. You'll pay more than what the guy says. read more

Long wait and price is comparable to other smog checks. I'd rather check out another spot.

Super quick, easy, professional!!! One gentleman was running the show on a Sunday, I think his name was Jose? He was phenomenal. Good pricing too! Thank you guys :) read more

The whole experience from start to finish lasted about 15 minutes. Will definitely go back next time.

Star Auto Check - Smog checked - Smog Check Stations Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Super convenient location and friendly service. I've been bringing all my cars here for years. Recommended!

Agree with Derek. Stay far away from this place, especially Jose. My car has always passed with no issues, and nothing has changed. It's well maintained and fully legal. Jose clearly didn't know what he was doing and seemed more focused on finding a reason to fail me than actually doing his job. Never had someone go that far over nothing. Don't waste your time here. read more

Good service, good quality, waiting not too long clean place, staff is nice, prices are reasonable read more

As good as it gets! Thank you! Fast, efficient, easy -- what more could one ask for? I came to Star Auto Check after a *lot* of searching online for the best price in my area. So if you're near Star Auto Check, I suggest you stop searching now and go there. You won't be disappointed. read more

I came here to get a smog check and loved my experience. Sergio was very helpful and nice and did not take a long time on my car. He explained the process before he started and answered the questions I had. I'm glad the process was quick! For the price, the service was worth it. If I need a smog check in the future, I will definitely go back to give Star Auto a visit! read more

Great place for a Smog check. Friendly. Quick. Reliable and helpful. Nice guys. Honored their quote. No funny business.
