How to Pass Your Smog Check the First Time
Want to improve your chances of passing? Follow these expert tips before your test:
- Drive for at least 20 minutes – A warmed-up engine produces fewer emissions.
- Check your oil and air filter – Dirty oil and clogged filters can lead to test failures.
- Ensure your check engine light is off – If it’s on, your vehicle will automatically fail.
- Inflate your tires properly – Especially important if tested on a dynamometer.
- Use high-quality fuel and a fuel additive – Helps clean out carbon buildup.
