San Jose Auto Repair

He's a very knowledgeable, articulate, smart, well organized guy. I was impressed!

What can I say that hasn't already been said about my first review? lol These guys are great and worth the money. They moved locations but if anything that's a plus (more parking). They do good work here and i'm always here once a year. Definitely BEEN recommending to others! :) Just like all the other reviews, i expected nothing less. My car didn't pass the first time tho, hahaha, but its not his fault...he DID, however, recommend me to GREAT ppl who fixed my car today without any problems. Phil is a good person who is very knowledgeable about his work (like every shop dealing with autos should be). Thanks!!!! I will definitely recommend. oh and use those coupons that are free off the website! =)

This guy is super nice. Like hella nice....and he's a Warriors fan. I brought my car in for my smog to renew my registration. There was no wait. He hooked me up to the machine and after about 3 minutes told me I would be unable to pass because my check engine light was on. Bummed, I said.."Oh man...how much do I owe you" He said, "NoIthing..I reset your computer. Drive it around for 50 miles and if the light doesn't come back on you should be able to pass. Bring it back then" Sweet! The light never came back on and I took it back to him for my test the next week. It took 10 minutes and in lieu of the meticulously clean waiting room, i opted for the nice patio furniture in the sun. With their website coupon it ran me $48, which is considerably less then other shops in that area. I reasearched the others around this area are about 75 bucks Plus..he reset my computer...for free. Awesome.

Smog Man on Earle provides quick service, has a great internet coupon, and convenient parking (much better than when they shared the lot with Roselli). I only wish they had a sign out on Lincoln pointing their way.

Friendly, fast and well priced service. Thanks! First I called and the gentleman answered my questions thoroughly. When I arrived the wait time was actually what he quoted and the service time was about 10 minutes. The waiting area is clean and comfortable. Very happy customer!

Went here a couple of weeks ago to get my 1999 VW Passat, a.k.a "The Silver Slug," smogged for its biannual "turn your head and cough" checkup. The new location is a little hard to find, especially since there appears to be darn near a hundred other smog facilities within a 20-foot radius, but it's well worth it. Just follow the sign being paraded about by the dancing dude on Lincoln. There was no wait on a Tuesday morning, and I was in and out of there in less than 15 minutes. The waiting room is clean, and the service is both friendly and efficient. Price seemed in line with other smog-testing places. I didn't cash in any Internet discount, and the whole thing ran around $60. For something you have to do once every two years to keep the DMV cronies happy, that seems affordable enough. The Slug passed with flying non-noxious colors, and the only thing missing was the lollipop for being such a good patient.

Friendly, fast service and a great Internet deal. What's not to like?

I took my truck here around 5:30 pm while he was closing..not only did he take my truck but he also took my check which he normal doesnt do..i was in and out in less than 15 min..the price wasnt too bad either

**EXCELLENT SERVICE AND EFFICIENCY** Note NEW LOCATION: 538 Earle Street, SJ 95126 Thanks to all of the positive Yelp reviews, I found my to-go smog center in San Jose. Due to the BMW M3's catalytic converters, my first smog check FAILED. But the SMOG MAN gave me a receipt for a FREE RE-TEST. AWESOME, right?! After the replacement of the catalytic converters, I returned to the SMOG MAN and it passed beautifully. New location has a nice lobby. Waited for 10 minutes. DONE, son. HIGHLY RECOMMEND for those looking for a professional, clean, and efficient smog center in the Rose Garden area.

Can't complain. Car passed with flying colors! They're fast. The waiting area is clean. They're nice. They give discounts if you go to their website or check-in, or use a groupon, etc. At some point in the year they'll have a discount for sure. No appointment needed. They move at a good rate and get the cars in and out fast. Came here cuz of the other yelpers. Came to get my car smogged before I sold it. When I got there there was a car already being tested. Only waited 5 mins. As soon as Philip was done with that car he pulled my car in right away. He was very helpful and friendly. He gave me tips on how to keep my injectors clean and gave me tips on how to sell my car. Not more than 10 mins he was done and was ready to ring me up. Gave me my certificate and paid. Fast and Easy. I've been to other places for a smog check and by comparison Philip's place is pretty clean. I'm definitely coming back here in a few years when I have to smog again. Use the website and get the $20 off coupon.
