Hi, Does anyone have any recommendations for a trust worthy smog test station in the North County area?

Thanks,

Several times I've used "Pass 'n Go Smog Center" on Melrose in Vista...near the Sprinter tracks and also where MRD and Workman's European Auto are located. Happy with them.

Thought of another place
Brandon Auto off on Miramar rd
They advertise in the reader and IIRC, its around $20 or $25 including certificate
I used them to smog my boxster and it went fine

Maybe I'm a little late on this, but my "go to" spots have been:

- For non-directed smog tests, Save Auto. It's about a mile from Porsche of San Diego, and super cheap. Not quite North County. I live off Camino del Norte, and it's a bit of a drive south for me. Go to their website, print the coupon for an $11.25 smog check + $8.25 certificate == $20 out the door. http://saveautorepairsmog.com/

- For directed smog tests (STAR or test-only stations), I use Penasquitos Auto Repair. They get pretty good ratings on Yelp for overall service, and they've always been really fast to do my smog checks on my Evo, which always end up being directed tests. I guess they don't trust the cheapo stations to know what a modified Evo looks like. :) If you go there, go to the website and print out their $10 off coupon and take it with you. http://www.penasquitosautorepair.com/
