01 Smog Check & Maintenance

Smog Check

DMV renewal notice says you need a smog check, or a STAR station? Walnut Smog & Repair is a STAR Certified smog station on E Walnut St, with a dyno for older vehicles.

Oil Change

A proper oil change from a shop that tells you the truth about your car. The right oil for your engine, a new filter, and a quick look-over while it's on the lift.

Engine Tune-Up

Rough idle, hesitation, or fuel mileage that keeps dropping? A tune-up restores smooth power, and on many cars it's the difference between passing and failing smog.

Air & Cabin Filters

Two inexpensive filters do two important jobs: one protects your engine, the other cleans the air you breathe in the cabin. We'll show you the old ones before we replace anything.

Battery Service

Southern California heat is what really kills batteries. We test the battery and the charging system, clean the connections, and replace the battery only when it needs it.

Vehicle Inspection

Buying a used car, or want to know where your vehicle stands? We put it on the lift, scan the computer, and give you a clear, honest report, including whether it's likely to pass smog.

02 Smog Repair, Diagnostics & Engine

Failed Smog Repair

Failed smog? Don't start replacing expensive parts. We find the actual cause, fix that, and retest your vehicle right here at our STAR Certified station.

Check Engine Diagnostics

A code tells us where to look, not what to replace. We test, confirm the actual cause, and explain it clearly before you spend a dollar on parts.

Exhaust & Catalytic Converter

Loud exhaust, a rattle underneath, a catalytic converter code or a stolen converter? We repair exhaust systems with emissions in mind.

Electrical Repair

Electrical problems scare off a lot of shops. We trace them properly, from sensors and wiring to starters, alternators, power windows and dead-battery drains.

Engine Repair

Timing components, water pumps, gaskets and oil leaks. We take engines apart when they need it, and we tell you honestly when a repair is worth it.

Transmission Service

Slipping, harsh shifts, a delay into gear or a warning light? We diagnose transmission problems carefully, because the right answer is often far cheaper than a rebuild.

03 Brakes, Suspension & A/C

Brake Repair

Squealing, grinding, a soft pedal or a pull to one side? We inspect the whole brake system, show you what's worn, and quote the repair before we start.

Steering & Suspension

Clunks over bumps, a wandering steering wheel or a bouncy ride? We inspect it on the lift and repair it right.

A/C Repair & Recharge

Blowing warm during a Pasadena heat wave? We diagnose why, fix the leak or failed part, and recharge the system to spec.
