TECHNICIAN WILL USE THE LATEST DIAGNOSTIC EQUIPMENT TO PINPOINT THE CAUSE OF THE FAULT(S) AND AN ESTIMATE FOR REPAIRS WILL BE PROVIDED. UPON COMPLETION OF THE REPAIRS THE TECHNICIAN WILL VERIFY THE REPAIR WITH A TEST DRIVE. THIS TEST DRIVE LIKELY WILL NOT RUN THE MONITORS REQUIRED FOR A SMOG TEST. IF THE VEHICLE NEEDS TO BE SMOGGED, DRIVE THE VEHICLE FOR 50-100 MILES AND RETURN TO VERIFY THE MONITORS HAVE PASSED BEFORE THE SMOG TEST.
