What happens at your smog check

Come in

Bring the vehicle and, if you have one, the DMV renewal notice. Show the coupon at the counter.

We test it

A licensed inspector checks the emissions system and on-board diagnostics.

Pass — or we fix it

A pass is reported to the state. If it fails, we explain why and can repair it on site.

Good to know

STAR-directed vehicles

Some DMV renewal notices say the smog check must be done at a STAR station. We are not STAR certified, so we can’t issue that particular certificate. We can still diagnose and repair the vehicle so it’s ready to pass at a STAR station — and every other smog test happens right here.

Not sure what your notice says? Look for the words “STAR station” in the smog section. If they’re not there, any licensed smog station — including ours — can test your car.

Smog FAQ

Smog checks in Scotts Valley

How much is a smog check at Integrity Automotive?

Our coupon takes $20 off your smog check. The exact price depends on your vehicle, and you’ll see it before we begin.

When will my car need a smog check?

For most gas and hybrid cars: at every other registration renewal, when ownership changes, and the first time a car from out of state is registered here.

Which vehicles are exempt?

Fully electric vehicles, gasoline vehicles from 1975 and older, and diesels from 1997 and older are generally exempt. Your DMV notice has the final word.

What if my car fails?

We’re a test-and-repair shop. We’ll show you what caused the failure, quote the repair, and retest the car once it’s fixed.

My notice says STAR station. Can you test it?

No — that certificate must come from a STAR-certified station, and we aren’t one. We can repair the car beforehand so it’s ready to pass there.

Can I get my smog check early?

Yes, but the result typically stays good for about three months, so it’s best to test shortly before you renew or sell.

Do I need an appointment for a smog check?

No — just come in during business hours. More answers are on our FAQ page.
