I went in 4 a smog check. Im told it failed because the Check Engine Light Bulb was missing. The same missing light bulb that lit up last week at my mechanics, getting tuned up. The same missing light bulb that passed smog twice since i got the car. They wanted 2 charge $5 for a new bulb AND $200 to put it in. Sounds like lies 2 me...
So sorry to hear the unfortunate news that your check engine light bulb was missing and that your personal mechanic failed to inform you that your check engine light wasn't illuminating 😕. Hopefully your mechanic can help you with your missing light bulb, diagnose the cause of your check engine light, repair it and smog it for you.🤷 Best of luck to you!
