Need A SMOG Check at a STAR Station

My renewal says I'm due for a smog check, and it has to be at a STAR station. This sucks, but whatever.

Can anyone recommend a location in or near 90034, or anywhere in Los Angeles? I hate people touching my car, and we're in a pandemic, so I don't care about cost on this, just care about good service.

Thanks.

Best one I can recommend is Joe's Smog in Burbank in and out literally in 5 minutes.

Thanks, dery. I'll make a note. I wound up going to A&M SMOG. They're honest.

The new way of doing the check is that they do everything through the OBD port. No sensor in the exhaust pipe, no revving the car on a dyno-type machine. Still waiting for DMV to send my sticker.

Thats why the place I recommend does. Just OBD port and your out in 5 minutes. He’ll send your information directly to the dmv and by the small chance you fail you don’t pay. But glad you got it done.
