Denton County Emissions Testing

Texas has updated its vehicle inspection program — Denton County now requires an emissions test only. A full safety inspection is no longer required to renew your registration. Justin Automotive is a state-certified emissions testing station. We'll scan your vehicle's OBD II system and confirm it meets Texas standards.

Inspection Checklist

What the Emissions Test Covers

Denton County vehicles are tested for emissions compliance using the state-mandated OBD II diagnostic scan.

OBD II Diagnostic Scan

We connect to your vehicle's on-board diagnostic port to check for any active emissions-related fault codes.

Readiness Monitors

Your vehicle's internal readiness monitors are checked to confirm all emissions systems have completed their self-tests.

Malfunction Indicator Lamp

We verify the check engine light (MIL) is not illuminated, which is required to pass the emissions test.

Evaporative System Check

The EVAP system monitor is checked to ensure your fuel vapor recovery system is functioning correctly.

Be Prepared

What to Bring

Your Vehicle

Drive in the vehicle that needs to be tested. Make sure the check engine light is not on before you arrive — an illuminated MIL is an automatic fail.

Valid Texas Registration

Your current vehicle registration is required to complete the emissions testing process.

Proof of Insurance

Texas requires valid liability insurance. Have your insurance card or digital proof ready.

Payment

Emissions test fees are set by the state of Texas. We accept cash, card, and most major payment methods.
