My Smog Repair Story of the 1991 Corolla - Continued

On October 20, 2012 after Tom and Lawrence fixed the car. My first stop was to take the Corolla to the Reliant Auto Repair, so they can re-check the diagnostic for my car. Before me and Tom went, I called the shop and made sure they had time, which the owner, Singh answered the phone and told me that I can bring the car down. When we got to the shop, they were busy, so we had to wait for a while before they have a chance to diagnose my car.  We were there for more than an hour, then Singh told us our car is just like brand new, it should not have any problem passing the smog test this time.  We paid for the bill and went to the Smog Test Station, which when I first took it but failed the test.  For sure this time we will pass the test and I took the report and we both went back home. Next day when I decided to mail the registration to DMV, Tom stopped me and told me I should take it to the DMV office instead of mailing it out. It will be faster since we are already late for the registration.  It took me more than two hours before I was able to get the sticker on the license plate. Next thing I went to the Wheel Works and change all four tires, which cost me over $300 and than I had the wiper blade change, because it was over 10 years old and will not work right.  At first I went to Auto Zone, but they did not have the correct one, also it cost $26 ea. So I went to O'Reilly Auto Parts they have the right one for me and cost less, only $9.49/ea.  After all these parts were fixed, I feel much safer to drive this car and ready to use this car to take my parents to the doctor.
