Test-only, test-and-repair and STAR stations in North Hollywood

Smog check stations in California are licensed by the Bureau of Automotive Repair (BAR). In North Hollywood (Los Angeles County), the 31 listed stations are 20 test-and-repair shops and 11 test-only stations. A test-only station inspects and certifies your vehicle but does not repair it, so a car that fails has to be fixed somewhere else and brought back. A test-and-repair shop can run the test, diagnose a failure and do the repair under one roof.

STAR is a BAR certification for stations that meet higher performance standards. If your DMV renewal notice says your vehicle must be tested at a STAR station, only a STAR certified station can certify it; otherwise any licensed station will do. 18 of the 31 stations in North Hollywood are STAR certified today.

25 of the 31 stations have Google ratings.

Smog check in North Hollywood: frequently asked questions

Stations in North Hollywood set their own prices, and prices change, so call ahead or bring a coupon. Smog check coupons at 2 North Hollywood stations currently run from $34.95 to $41.75. Check each coupon's fine print for which vehicles it covers and whether the certificate fee is included. Across Los Angeles County, the median smog check coupon price is $39.75 at 26 stations (October 2026), before the certificate. The Bureau of Automotive Repair puts the statewide average at $69.16 (August 2026): about $65 for a 2000-or-newer vehicle and $73 for 1999-or-older, plus the $8.25 state certificate when the vehicle passes.


In most of California, gasoline vehicles more than eight model years old need a smog check every two years when the registration is renewed, and most vehicles need one when they change owners. A few rural areas only require it on a change of ownership. Your DMV renewal notice says whether this year’s renewal needs one.


Yes. 18 of the 31 stations in North Hollywood are STAR certified. You only need one if your DMV renewal notice says the vehicle must be tested at a STAR station.


North Hollywood has 20 test-and-repair shops and 11 test-only stations. A test-only station inspects and certifies but does not repair, so a failed vehicle is fixed elsewhere and brought back. A test-and-repair shop can test, diagnose and repair in one place. Both issue the same state certificate.


Bring the vehicle and its registration or DMV renewal notice. Make sure the check engine light is off before you go; on a 2000-or-newer vehicle an illuminated check engine light is an automatic fail.


The vehicle has to be repaired and pass a retest before the DMV renews the registration. Retest pricing is set by each station, so ask before the first test. Income-eligible owners can apply to BAR’s Consumer Assistance Program for repair assistance or vehicle retirement.


A passing smog check is sent to the DMV electronically and is valid for 90 days, so get it done within 90 days of renewing or selling the vehicle.


Stations come from the Bureau of Automotive Repair (BAR) license register, checked daily. STAR status is from BAR records checked in October 2026. Hours and ratings come from Google. Coupons are published by the stations. The average price is from BAR’s August 2026 monthly report; median coupon prices by county are in the California smog check price report. How we get this data
