Need a good local shop.....
Hey, I'm new to this area and this is my first post on here. I need to get my car registered and whatnot. I'm just looking for some guidance. Do I need to get my car smogged first? Is smog the same as emissions testing here? I'm from Pennsylvania, and the rules are a little different. Also, my check engine light has intermittently come on and off, and I need a good shop. I'm looking into GST in Hayward since I am pretty close (I live in San Mateo). Thanks in advance for any help you guys can give me.

IMHO you can go to either shop .. both of them have good mechanics. but i believe auto HQ is closer. Also you would have to pay toll if you went to GST.

Thanks guys. I appreciate the help. Also, I definitely want to head out to a meet soon. It would be nice to meet some fellow Suby drivers. What is UCKK and where is it at?

I'll be happy to help out on why your cel light is intermittently coming on and off. Give me a call on Monday so I can set up an appointment for you to come in.
I look forward to hearing from you.
