Has anybody had to do a smog test on an '09+ CR diesel in Las Vegas yet? I got my renewal notice a few weeks ago and it said that I had to get a smog test. Today I went to one of the (few) designated diesel smog test sites (Jiffy Smog on American Pacific in Henderson) and I was told that they can't test my car. They said that I had to go to the DMV "Emissions Lab" at their Sahara office and get an exemption. According to the guy at Jiffy Smog, the traction control on these cars (even with ESP turned off) prevents the car from getting up to speed on their dyno type tester thing.
If my car cannot pass their emissions tests, why do they require me to go to the DMV office just for a piece of paper that says I'm exempt from testing? They could have told me that in the beginning and saved them and me the hassle of trying to get a test and then driving across town just to get an exemption.
I am curious if anybody else has had to jump through these hoops just to renew your license plates.
Have Fun!
