Northridge Smog Check

RM Automotive is a California Certified Smog Inspection station for vehicles that were manufactured in the year 2000 or newer. This new program recently rolled out by the State of California enables our shop to perform a quicker and more affordable smog inspection.

2000 model year and newer vehicles have a streamlined smog inspection.

Cars built in 2000 or after do not need the tailpipe inspection anymore as long as your vehicle has the On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) Inspection System (OIS) which most late model cars are equipped with.

The vehicle’s smog inspection still requires the existing visual and functional smog inspection. This new inspection allows us to hook up our computer to your car by plugging into your car’s OBD socket.

Finally our customers with later model cars don’t have to find a smog shop, we’re here for you now.
