I have been coming here for many years now and the service is still as amazing as it's always been. Even the additional things like cleaning leaves off the vents and checking tires is nothing nobody really asks for, but he makes the effort to pay attention to the details. I always recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a spot and the value is still pretty good after all these years. read more

He was very efficient, friendly and fit me in last minute. It was a recommendation and I'm glad I came.

Best service!! Checked my tires, checked under my car and found an issue I didn't know about, and cleared off leaves from my vents - will always take my car here from now on. read more

Sun Smog Test Only - Quick and Easy Service - Smog Check Stations Near Me - San Jose, California

Friendly, kind, super affordable, efficient. As others have said, silently took care of things he needn't have - clean off leaves and debris from the wiper area, check tire condition and pressure etc. One-man, owner-only run show. Get all my cars checked here. read more

I called for a same day appointment, went in within the hour. Service is always excellent; he offered to check air pressure of tires and topped off air. Have only experienced the friendliest and best service here. read more

Came to Sun Smog Test Only right after buying a used Toyota, and I was seriously impressed. The owner is a super nice guy--he went above and beyond just the smog check. He checked underneath the car for leaks, inspected the tire pressure, and even added air--stuff most places would never bother with. You can tell he genuinely cares and wants you to know what's going on with your car so you can fix issues early. Pricing was totally fair too. I'll definitely be bringing all my cars here from now on. Highly recommend! read more

It is quick, priced appropriately, and easy way to get a smog test. The owner is friendly and kind.

Very fast and easy. Was able to make an appointment the same day. Entrance to the shop was a little confusing but he called me to make sure I knew where to go. Thank you Phong! read more

Been here twice (2023 and 2025). Location is STAR certified. The owner is very friendly and polite. Service is fast and professional.

Quick & easy. Exactly how a smog testing site should be. I'll bring my car here anytime

Location is a hole in the wall, not to get it confused with the Cartex business next door. My boyfriend and I actually made the mistake in parking near Cartex and going into their office only to be directed to the small garage right next door to them! Phuong had noticed our car driving in immediately and greeted us while we were still on the road. We asked for a smog test and he took us in immediately! He did the favor in taking our car into his garage, and showed us to a few seats where we could wait as he assessed our vehicle. Phuong provides amazing, absolutely amazing hospitality, as he kept checking in on us making sure we were comfortable and even offering us a few bottles of water on such a humid day. My boyfriend and I really appreciated his kindness! Smog test in general took at least 10-15 minutes, not including the minutes of conversation we had afterwards. Phuong gave us a complimentary tire check and pump while providing some tips on maintaining the correct tire pressure! As I asked him, I found out he is a one man crew. Amazing customer service is definitely a #1 at this business. I would definitely recommend Phuong's smog services to anyone! read more

Having my smog check done at Sun Smog Test was hands down the best experience. He is genuinely a kind man, with great customer service skills - which seems hard to come across these days. He had me in and out. I will never go anywhere else! (He even through in a complimentary tire pressure check and top off). read more

The place where I work uses this place for their fleet of trucks, so I thought there must be something wonderful - and there is... Phoung is the NICEST guy! He will get you in & out, has a little chair you can sit in while you wait. He will even offer you water! He's been doing it awhile, so zip, zip, zip, and it's done. And you leave happy, because he is so respectful. read more

Phoung is amazing, he takes care of your service and even fills your air in the tires. Great service, friendly, attentive, answers all your questions. Do not hesitate to support this local business. read more

A great one man operation that gets you in and out pretty darn quick, $58 for my old jeep total price. The owner hands you a nice bottle of water and gets right to work. Been here 5 times, friendly and speedy...my fav to get that dang nuisance certification out of the way. Wishing this hard working gent continued success and prosperity! read more

Good price, fast service, friendly customer service, this place definitely deserves a 5 star review!

Sun Smog is the best, Very Professional, and customer service is excellent, definitely recommend.

I showed up at another smog place and no one was there. I checked Yelp for a backup and found sun smog nearby with 5 stars. I called and he said come by, I was In and out in 15 minutes. read more

Service is awesome, friendly and fast Always makes you feel welcome Always welcomes you whit smile Is pleased to be here , I have three cars and always I brought those here read more

Did you really expect anything less than 5 STARS!!! This guy has been doing my car, my friends cars, their sister's cars, my aunts car, my coaches car, my lovers car, my husbands car (just kidding about the lover) For YEARS! Such pleasant, good energy and vibes exudes from the guy. I will NEVER go anywhere else! We need more business' like this in the valley! read more

He was very nice. Helpful and courteous. He added air to my tires, cleared the leaves from my front vents and informed me to have the corrosive taken off my battery from the oil changer but don't unplug otherwise it wipes my computer's memory. On the convenience side, he can submit the smog test online to DMV making it easier for me to complete my registration renewal online. His shop is along the road with KFC and Bills cafe not far from Valley Fair. Suri on my iphone chose Sun Smog and mapped the location to me which was smooth sailing from there. read more

Sun Smog Test has moved to a new place. 438 S Bascom Ave, SJ 95128 It looks much better than the old one and the service is still great.

Sun Smog Test keeps the same phone # 408-515-3577 read more

See all

Found this place through Yelp- I've never had to take my car in for a Smog check before, and I was weirdly nervous. I called ahead and the owner told me to come in about 30 minutes. When I showed up, he immediately came out and moved my car into the garage. The whole process took maybe 20 minutes? Could not have been easier- highly recommend. read more

Took the time and care needed to get the smog test done. Great customer service and will definitely recommend this location.

Easy access, the owner is the tech so service is always good. He is well informed about cars. I recommend getting your car smog with him.

Great service all around. Will definitely come back. No gimmicks! No wait, explained what I wanted and the owner offered me a bottle of water while I waited. Thanks read more

This is, hands down, the best place to have your smog checked. They always have the friendliest service, they always go above and beyond (checking tire pressure, cleaning leaves out from under my hood, etc), and are a great price. There's never a wait and they have you out of there in no time! Thank you! read more

I had my mail stolen and had no idea I needed a smog until the day before it was due. I was frustrated and stressed but all of that immediately went away when I came here. The owner is SO nice and when I told him I didn't have my DMV paperwork he said "Don't worry, I'll take care of you." Totally turned my day around! And it was very affordable too! Go here, you won't regret it read more
