Main Street Smog Test Only

I was in a hurry to get a smog check because I needed to be somewhere within an hour. I called the location and the person was super friendly. There was no one there when I arrived and it only took a short 15 minutes. This place has a coupon on their website and I did not have to mention it to the worker. He automatically gave me a discount and the total came to $ 45.

Walked in just after 10 AM on a Thursday, was in and out within 20 minutes — and I have an older car! I will definitely be back with my other cars with the time comes.

In n out within 15 mimutes. Cool and informative guy. Will be back for my next smog check.

Wowzer! I visit this place for a smog test. Everything was done before I can finish one of the YouTube video.

Good service and cheap too. 2007 Mazda MX5 ($ 45 including certificate), 1999 Nissan Maxima ($ 48.25 including certificate).

Go here for your check. If you have a question ask the technician, he actually knows what he is doing. Honest, fast, helpful. Great experience highly recommended.

Came here on a Friday around 2PM and needed a smog check. Owner handled everything and it took only 15 minutes! Fast and no hassle at all and it cost $ 45. Price was good and I didn’t have to wait long so 5 stars! Will come back the next time I need a smog check!

I come here all the time. With Five cars in the family and three hitting one year within a 1 month period, and 2 the following year, it makes sense to find a good place to conduct smog testing.
Obviously as a test only spot you can’t get any help fixing your vehicle, but at least he will provide you the decency of not charging you if your OBD system does not pass all the readiness checks or if your check engine light is on.
The ARCO on Park Victoria and Landess will steal your money this way.
Main Street Smog, being awesome, will not.
PS-​Be nice and don’t show up 5 minutes before closing like me.

This is the spot for a nice quicky. Quicky service that is. Plus the place was very affordable. As long as there is no one in line you can get your smog check in for about 10 – 15 minutes. I have only came here once but I will probably go again.

In and out in 10 mins! Super easy, no holes to jump through! I will definitely go back! Good price too!

Friendly owner, fast service!

How can you do better in smog checking? How about 10 min door-​in-​door-​out with a passing certificate in hand? Mention that you come from their web with a coupon and get $ 10 off.

Since it was empty, was in and out in 10 min. Even got a discount for mentioning Unilocal

Service is fast, customer service is awesome. All in all great experience, he said it’ll take 10 minutes but actually finished in five! Got a discounted price when told I found them on Unilocal!
Also you get to see a cute black dog while waiting! Love it!

I called ahead of time to see if there was a wait. There wasn’t. It took him less than 10 minutes… I was in and out in no time. Pricing was low ($ 45 with the coupon). Quick, easy and relatively painless all in all. I hate getting the smog notice with my registration but at least having a fast and fair priced place to go to helps take the sting out. :-) Also he electronically reports it to the DMV.

Very pleasant experience. Brought my alfa romeo 4c and the smog check was quick and the owner was pleasant to work with.
Highly recommended !

It’s hard to give rating on Smog Test Station since there is not much to compare with; they are somewhat doing the same thing for you. All I can rate on are its service and price. The service is excellent and efficient. I came in with a person ahead of me. I thought I would at least had my car checked and ready in an hour; surprisingly I only stayed there for less than half and hour. Without the need of coupon and mentioning Unilocal,it costed me $ 45 dollars, which I think is reasonable compares to other places I had been to before. I would definitely come back to this place for my smog check if Andrew can keep up with the good work!

I don’t know what I would do without Unilocal.
Knowing I needed to get my car smog certified, I toyed with the idea to drive to a smog certifier, which a friend had recommended in Fremont. But then — why not see if there was a highly recommended local business? Thanks to Unilocal and it’s reviewers, I found the *Main Street Smog Test Only* business.
I arrived and was told it would be about 10 minutes before he could check out my car. Excellent — and then it was only 5 minutes, actually. (I had feared a long Saturday morning line, but got lucky.) Then he starts on my car and says it would be about 10 minutes — and THEN was only about 5 minutes. WOW. In, done, out in less than 15 minutes! And, he sent the results off to the State, electronically. I was afraid much of my Saturday would be taken with this process, but I left there with much more of my Saturday to get things done.
What an overall PLEASANT experience! And the gentleman was very courteous and professional.
This is a local business I am thrilled to have found and will support in the years to come!
Highly highly HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. Your review helps others learn about great local businesses.

Came here for a smog check without an appointment in a weekday afternoon. The attendant was extremely friendly and I’m amazed at how quick they were. My smog was completed in less than 15 minutes and the price the smog check we’re cheaper than most places I’ve visited in the past. I believe I paid $ 35 plus an additional $ 8 for labor. Will come back next year since they were quick and easy.

I was a true Unilocaler and did my research prior to getting a smog check. After picking the 5 cheapest/​best in San Jose/​Milpitas, I narrowed it down between these two:
+ Main Street Smog Test Only = $ 48.25 with one free retest
+ Milpitas Smog Test Only = $ 45 with a $ 15 retest
My ancient Flintstone ’92 Honda Accord was summoned to get a smog test and I had very little confidence it would pass. Having one free retest was worth the $ 3.25 difference and not risking another $ 15 for a failed smog check.
Real price was $ 50 + $ 8.25 certificate but mention Unilocal or go to their website for a $ 10 off coupon
Beyonce must have sung a little prayer for my car because it passed on the first run (and JUST barley according to Andrew). Andrew also offered to check my tire pressure. COOL BEANS! I’m lousy at doing that myself. Because I have nitrogen filled tires and they only have air at the shop I passed up the gesture. Still much appreciated, though.
Bathroom, outlets, ‘DGAF if you’re staring at me’ dog, and gossip magazines are plenty to keep you occupied in the under 30 minutes you’re here. Will gladly be back in 2 years if my car is still running
