Does anyone know of anyone or a place that will let me pass a smog test if I pay for extras ？ ？
I am having a very difficult time because my friend bought me a car that is a hassle. I was told that it needs to be repaired to pass the smog test and that it will cost $ about 6000 to repair. I just bought the car and I am a student and I don't have that kind of money right now. So I am stuck in a situation where I can't register my car and I can't get it repaired. I would appreciate it if someone could give me some information.

I see. Thank you for telling me. I don't know much about cars at all.
And I thought I could fix it cheaply, but that's not true ？ wrong ？
I went to 4 ～ 5 places before I went to the person who told me that I had to buy parts from Toyota
and that I would have to pay 2500 or 3000. I was getting discouraged because I was told 3,000 、、、、

I had mine fixed at a repair shop for $ 500. The repair was to cut out the old catalytic converter and put in a new one. Since it is an older car, I don't think there is any need to be concerned about expensive OEM parts.

The engine light bothers everyone,
I inserted a Berryman B-12 into my gas tank and
the light blinking went away and the test passed.

You can buy it on Ebay for $5-6,
try it.

BTW, Topix is just saying $ that the repair will cost about $6000, why are you assuming that the catalyst has deteriorated and needs to be replaced ？
There are many more possibilities, such as a transmission failure DTC that causes the MIL to light up and not pass a smog test, etc. There are so many possibilities ？.
