Downtown Smog Test Only

The best, fastest, most efficient, and friendly smog test station I have ever been to. Mr Lee is friendly and polite. I will certainly bring my car back again when I next need a smog.
I highly recommend Downtown Smog.

Have to agree with the vast majority of Unilocalers that David Lee gives very good, efficient smog certification service. Going here was actually a mistake, as I was intending to go to the Smog service business @ 1055 G street, but shot by their entrance and had to turn left on the 1-​way street.
Fortunately this led me to Mr. Lee’s establishment where he invited me right in, told me to keep the engine running and read the paper w/​out even leaving my car. 7 minutes later I’m passed and good for two years now.

The friendly and courteous husband and wife team at Downtown Smog Test Only made our Smog and DMV registration extremely quick and easy. We will be recommending them to all of our neighbors in the downtown area. Well Done!

Really frustrating. This review is not based on service received but I wanted to warn others to confirm their hours before you go! I couldn’t find the hours online, on Unilocal,or via their voicemail. I tried calling multiple times to confirm, but no answer and no voicemail providing information. So I figured with all the Unilocal reviews I’d go anyway. It was 8:30am on a Tuesday. When I arrived I saw their parking signs said reserved from 6am-​7pm (figured that means they are open that early). Apparently not, nothing on the building indicated their hours either so I couldn’t stick around and wait for them to open. Really annoying. Thankfully I found a place down the street that was open and their service was awesome, and they picked up their phones stanly to confirm (Smog Tests Only at 1055 G st, if this happens to you, check them out!)
So in summary, while their service is probably great based on the reviews, their business/​information model sucks and waists customers’ time.

From out of town… LA… Not too far but needed to take care of a smog test only. Guess what? David is the best! Professional, fast & courteous. Most definitely recommend. Thx David

Yep. That was quick, painless, and reasonably priced. Exactly how you want a smog to go! Service was even friendly! Highly recommend it :)

Fast and friendly service! I was in and out of there in 10 minutes for $ 50. I will definitely go back for my next check.

Downtown smog check is the absolute best! Mr. Lee was very friendly and was at my car door before I’d even shut off my engine. The test only took about 15 or 20 minutes and gave me a five dollar discount for being military. I fully recommend downtown smog check to everyone who’s looking to get a fast, efficient and reasonably priced smog check to comply with the California smog regulations. I am very happy to say that downtown smog check is worth every star and more in my review! g

I’ve been here twice. On both occasions it was the nicest and most professional experience I could possibly expect.
If every small business was run like this the world would be a wonderful place.

Got me in quick as could be. Friendly and professional, price was reasonable. :)

This is a smog check only. Wow! I walked in and out in 5 minutes. Super friendly, super nice and great recommendations on other parts of the car as well.

When that DMV registration comes in requesting a smog check, I never worry. David is very friendly and accommodating. There’s hardly a wait when you go and he provides detailed instructions on registering without dealing with the DMV…

Five stars overall for a smog place? Strange, but true.
At first this place was confusing to find, because it sits on the same lot as a pay parking lot. However, within a few seconds of me driving around slowly, David came bounding out of the smog shop, raised up a garage door and waved me inside.
I was lucky that I was the only customer at the time and the whole process took about five minutes. David also gave me some helpful tips about registering online or through AAA, so I don’t have to deal with the DMV. I would highly recommend using the smog check service here if you live or work in the downtown area.

There is nothing more valuable than my time and this place was so quick! I could not believe how fast my car was done. He noticed I had NV plates and went out of his way to make sure I had my NV paperwork as well, even though I forgot to ask! This is the most painless smog check I’ve ever gotten! He was so friendly!

Fast and friendly service! Called ahead and was able to get a time estimate for my make and model. I was in and out within 15 minutes. Highly recommend this place!

Excellent and friendly service. I called ahead for next day appointment and was in /​out in 15 minutes. No problem with parking or waiting. Easy to get to from freeway.

Quick & courteous service. He had several cars waiting for smog but got me in and out of there in less than an hour.
I had to call a few times before anyone answered and gave me their hours of operation. But it was worth the extra effort. Since he gave me great service and passed my Acura… on to DMV.

David was super fast! And very polite as well. It was a pleasure doing business with him. My experience with him was 10x better than any other smog test I’ve had in the past. I highly recommend David for his speed, price, and friendliness.

It’s smog check year again, so off the David I went. I went in yesterday morning, he took me right away, my van passed, and I was out of there in 15 minutes. David is a professional in every way!

Found this place as I was searching Unilocal this morning and boy am I happy that I did. The dude was energetic and professional. I came in expecting him to spend up to an hour on my car, so I went down to starbucks to get some coffee. I came back thinking that he was still working on car, only to find out he was done. I swear I was only gone for 20 minutes.
Dude was fast. I will definitely come back, NEXT YEAR.
