If your going to the dealership JUST to have the car checked out previous to your test, don't waste the money. Just go get it checked. My 94 minivan has the check engine light on and I thought it might not pass the test, but it did. It also seems like it's a different procedure than years ago when they really gunned the engines. It was rather mild and tame. Everytime I've gone in the past few years I've gone to the one by UPS, at around 14th and Canal. In and out in no time.
